20
items It's hard enough trying to find edible snacks that are gluten free but if you throw dairy free or vegan in the mix - it feels like you'll never snack again. Fear not, I've done some digging to find some pretty good snacks so you don't have to. If you...

Sweet
These are very similar to some familiar faves that are not quite as good for you.
Try it with no expectations and it will taste even better. They are unexpectedly tasty and if you miss that rice crispy texture these definitely have them but they snuck in veggies.
"TRADE" Rice Crispy Treats for MadeGood Vanilla Crispy Squares
These almost give almond joy a run for their money.
"TRADE" Almond Joy for UNREAL Dark Chocolate Coconut Candy Bars - 4.2oz
These are very addicting. Nice peanut butter taste and the chocolate is semi sweet so no bitterness.
"TRADE" Reese's Peanut Butter Cups for Unreal Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter Cups 4.2 oz
Also addicting. No dyes either so that's a plus!
"TRADE" Peanut M&Ms for UNREAL Dark Chocolate Covered Peanut Gems, 5 oz
These are best right out of the fridge as the icing tends to melt pretty fast. Fighting to get them out of the packaging is worth it plus they are packed with vitamin B12 for energy! The vanilla flavored ones are great also.
"TRADE" Glaze Donuts/Cinnamon Buns for Deux Classic Glaze Vegan & Gluten-free Donut Holes
Salty
Satisfy those salty cravings without the crash. Healthier alternatives to chips, puffs, and crackers that don't sacrifice the crunch.
When I need a salty crunch. Only downside is it has a bioengineered ingredient if that matters to you. If not, it's a good choice.
"TRADE" Regular Snyder's of Hanover Pretzels for Gluten Free Pretzel Sticks - 8oz
Even my non - vegan friends and family like these, the cheesy flavor is pretty natural.
"TRADE" Smartfood White Cheddar for SkinnyPop White Cheddar Popcorn Family Size - 8oz
These are lighter and work great for the grain free crowd.
"TRADE" Doritos for Siete Nachos - 5oz
Great option for movie night. I like to sprinkle a little nutritional yeast for a “cheesy” flavor or chili powder if you like spice.
"TRADE" Orville Redenbacher's Butter Popcorn for LesserEvil Organic Popcorn Himalayan Gold - 4.6oz
Let's be real, the greasy butter is overrated when the crunch and flavor are there.
"TRADE" Orville Redenbacher's for SkinnyPop Original Popcorn - 4.4oz
Crunchy, vegan-friendly snacks made from chickpeas (🤫) with cheesy flavor and a lighter, guilt-free twist. They pack plant protein, fiber, a much better option in moderation.
"TRADE" Cheetos Puffs for Hippeas Chickpea Puffs Groovy White Cheddar
1
Surprisingly close in flavor but way less bad ingredients
"TRADE" Hot Cheetos Puffs for Hippeas Flavor Blast Blazin Hot Puffs - 3.75oz
HONORABLE MENTION, PROCEED WITH CAUTION, these are addicting😫 2 cups is enough. This one is my favorite of all the varieties she has at Target.
"TRADE" Any boring popcorn really🤷🏽♀️for Tabitha Brown Roasted Garlic & Parmesan Organic Popcorn - 5oz
These are a gluten-free, veggie-packed snack with cheesy flavor and crunch. They DO NOT taste like cheezits but they are a close substitute if you want to go the healthier route.
Pair with hummus or guac for an extra kick!
"TRADE" Cheezits for Cauliflower Cheddar 4 oz
Good alternative to Cheez-It Snap’d even though it's not cheddar flavored, the snap is there!
"TRADE" Cheez-It Snap'd for From the Ground Up Cauliflower Snacking Crackers Sea Salt 6-Pack
Sweet n' Salty
Craving sweet and salty? This list hits both flavor notes without the junk.
It's a basic concept but the chocolate is guilt free and the pretzel is gluten free.
"TRADE" Flipz Dark Chocolate Pretzels, for Unreal Dark Chocolate Covered Pretzels 3.5oz
These have a lighter kettle corn flavor, takes a little getting used to but definitely a good alternative to regular kettle corn.
"TRADE" Kettle Corn for LesserEvil Organic Popcorn Himalayan Sweetness - 6.4oz
Drinks
No more drinking empty calories over here. Shakes, energy drinks and juices with lower sugar and more nutrition.
This drink has enough nutrients to give you a natural boost. I drink these if I can't grab breakfast or as a snack between meals. FYI: No caffiene!
"TRADE" Starbucks Bottled Frappucino OWYN Protein Shake - Cookies N' Creamless - 4pk/44.6 fl oz
Compared to Redbull, this has less sweeteners, no dyes, natural caffiene and prebiotics for your digestive system. If you're tired, they work great, but if you're exhausted they may not work as well so try to get a nap in before taking it if you need...
TRADE RedBull Bloom Energy Drink 12oz 12pk
Less sugar and a really nice citrus-y orange flavor.
"TRADE" Sunkist/Slice/Crush Orange for IZZE Sparkling Juice Clementine
