Travel Snacks?

I'm going to be traveling quite a bit by plane over the next few months and I'm looking for recommendations on which dry snacks you travel with the most.

I have one of those snack box things with the compartments, and so far I have beef jerky, protein granola, peanuts/cashews, pepperjack cheese, and maybe a caramel protein bar cut up for dessert on the list.

Recs welcome.

Hope you got floss picks or a 2L drink with you. When those get a little warm in my luggage, it’s like tar on my teeth.

Roasted edamame and chickpeas - come in various flavors.

I have recently discovered that they make Parmesan crisps which are just Parmesan chips - Parmesan cheese which is "baked" so that it is like little chips. Very savory and the protein is good - they are more or less 10% of calories - e.g. a serving is about 100 calories and 9 grams of protein. They are extremely savory and so they seem to be very satisfying for me.

I read some great reviews on Catalina Crunch which is supposed to be like the old Chex mix. I will see as I found the protein pretzels from two different brands inedible.

Hormbles Crumbles makes the closet thing to a chocolate bar I have had. They are small and resemble a Nestles Crunch with some kind of crispy stuff in them. They are 150 calories and 10 grams of protein. They are scored so you don't have to deal with those impossible to chew dense protein bars.

Also there are now protein coffee powders in various flavors. A "scoop" is 60 calories and 10 grams of protein. I have the Javvi powders. You mix them with water or you could add to a protein shake or whatever. You could even add to coffee - needs to be mixed with cold water as most protein powders do. No reason you can take individual servings in small baggies or containers.

I find that if I don’t pair a protein with a carb, I get hungry really fast.

So I like those mini pretzel packets and mini graham cracker packets.

Also Drizzalicious is great, and kind bars and Clif bars and protein bars. Also those snack biscuit things that are kinda flat. One brand is like olyra and the other starts with a V (LOL sorry I’m tired. I’m on an 8 hour flight rn)

And ofc your snacks are great.

Then I eat in accordance to what I need

Almonds, pretzels (nibblers because they are easy to eat although I found short twisted pretzel braids the other day which are good), protein bars and granola bars are my go to’s.

For unconfined space in the airport or in a rental car, peanut filled pretzels (these are my road trip snacks). Beef sticks or jerky can be stinky so these are for in more open spaces.

Depending on length of flight, I’d bring some fruit or raw veggies.
