Acai Bowl
Smoothie bowls or acai bowls can be healthy as long as they have a balance of whole fruits and vegetables and have reasonable portion sizes. The problem: Many of these smoothie bowls — particularly at juice shops and fast-casual chain restaurants — are calorie and sugar bombs, packing fruit juices, purees, honey, and sweetened yogurt. When you factor in all of these ingredients, you end up with a snack that packs in several hundred calories and far more than your daily recommended sugar intake.

Vegetable chips
Don’t rely on veggie chips to increase your fiber and antioxidant intake for the day. While many veggie chip labels claim to actually contain veggies, they often include veggie powders that lack the same nutritional value to give the chips a vibrant color. They’re also high in sodium (and maybe even sugar) to replicate the same flavor of potato chips. For a healthier alternative, grab some crunchy carrots or celery sticks!
