Store bought, HEALTHY, snacks! (Part 2: Dairy Products Edition)

We all love our dairy products: yogurt, cheese, ice cream, etc.. We might think that ALL dairy products are healthy, but you have to be careful because they could be high in sugars and fats. A lot of the snacks we eat are in the dairy family, therefore I am going to provide you with dairy products that you can purchase the grocery store that taste good, and are healthy! There are healthy snacks out there that taste good. People label "healthy snacks" as tasting bad. You just need to make the right choice. Here are some inexpensive healthy snacks that you can purchase at your local grocery store.
