Need healthy snacks for work trips?
Traveling for business can be tiring. In addition to work pressure, there's also tiredness from traveling, like jet lag, uncomfortable hotels and bad weather. Every stress induces exhaustion that may lead to poor decision-making, including snacking on junk food.
According to EmpowerHer.com, researchers at Columbia University's Mailman School of Public Health found that people who travel for business for more than two weeks a month have higher body mass index, higher rates of obesity and poorer self-rated health than people who don't.

Thin and crispy, the Quaker Popped Hummus Chips encompass hummus's good flavor, as well as its density in protein and fiber. They come in an assortment of flavors but "salsa fresco" (below) is (subjectively) the best.
