I would also love an alternative to nik naks! With that being said, generally when I want a salty snack I just get microwave popcorn 🍿 instead of chips. At least popcorn comes with extra protein and fiber. 

I totally love vita snacks. they are mini rice crackers from pick n pay and come in a range of flavours (wasabi is our fave) they are low cal. low fat. crunchy. flavorful. I even use them as a nachos alternative sometimes 

I just love vital snacks sweet chilli chips or the Woolies rice poppers !! 

about to have popcorn myself too need to snack sadly but I certainly miss eating chips Nik naks too! 

Woolworths has something called Crispy Cheese Nibbles - it’s dehydrated Gouda and it’s delicious. There’s 1 carb in the 20g bag. Such a great savory snack that I highly recommend. 

Thank you guys all so much. Will be definitely looking out for your suggestions the next time I'm in the shops😊💛 

Check out Trigz. The entire bag is 109 calories and tastes like real chips. Also, a small packet of tomato Fritos is only 109 calories too 

I also like the crispy cheese nibbles - they definitely come with similar calories to say nik naks, but low low carbs 👍 

Try bakers nuttikrust 6 biscuits only have 134 calories and they are yummy .. 

carrots and cucumbers diced to bite size makes an amazing tv snack. Add some humus to that, you'll never look for niknaks again.😅 

If you have an airfryer you can toss a can of chickpeas in some olive oil, fresh rosemary and salt. Put it in for 7 mins at 180 degrees, shake and then another 5 mins. Don’t put it in a bag or tupperware because then it becomes soggy x 

I've tried the veggie chips and I love it.  

try cucumbers, carrots and green pepper with low fat cottage cheese  

in my opinion. nothing beats nik naks. i have a suggestion. you will either love it or hate it. you should google kayle and nutritional yeast recipies. i haven't done it yet. but i love the taste of nutritional yeast. i will eats two or three spoons just like that.. i haven't counted the calories in it so i don't know if it's a good idea to do it like i do it  

try popcorn sprinkled with nutritional yeast😜 crunchy 'cheesy' goodness... that being said, if you LOVE niknaks, why not incorporate 1 small packet per week into your daily calorie allowance? healthy eating shouldn't be a all or nothing situation.... #aDietitians2cents 

Try clicks veggie chips, rice pops or you can eat your nicknaks in moderation. You don't have to cut the foods you love out!
