[QUOTE="Resurgam, post: 1474358, member: 355878"] As you don't want to be injecting insulin or counting carbs for the snack then perhaps a mild cheese, cream cheese in a stick of celery, cubes of melon (not melon balls as a choking hazard) cold sausage cut longways to make sticks, squares of thick cut ham or other meats. Lidl sell huge grapes, so a few of those cut up and the seeds removed could be added - they are not a sweet as the small seedless grapes. You could try a few carrot sticks or even ready made salad, the packs of chopped mixed sweet and crunchy type. Children do have different nutritional needs - they need proteins and fats for their growing bodies. I brought up two children on a fairly low carb diet - grapes rather than sweets, few biscuits lots of yoghurts - both are quite a bit taller than me, or their father, slender, intellegent and naturally strong. Lack of sugar kept their first teeth free from decay. [/QUOTE]
