Healthy snacking is essential for making gains in training and controlling a strong metabolic rate.  Although some of these snacks may be easier than others to carry around, they are all healthy choices for everyday snacking.  All of these snacks have their place in a balanced diet.  Aside from food allergies, it is ideal to eat fruit and vegetables in a daily intake.  It is also very important to incorporate essential foods high in “good” fat : avocado, almonds, fish oil, chia seed, flax seed coconut, olive oil, and the list goes on.
