Energy bars tend to have a lot of unnecessary stuff in them that can play merry hell with your digestion. If you want a good snack, buy a box of Kashi granola bars. Organic, easy to eat and fill you up. Quality stuff put in them, too.

Yea, plenty of carbs for energy, just the right amount of natural sugar, about 9 grams of protein per bar. Good stuff.

Meal replacement bars are just snickers with more protein. Kashi bars should be good because that's a healthy company.

Snack foods... vegetables, fruits ?Snack foods as in small "snacks" between meals.

Like I have 3-4 big meals with a good portion of fats, carbs, and protein and those are the biggest meals (500-800 calories) and between those I have smaller stuff like maybe a tuna sandwich or pieces of chicken breast.

Yeah, I do eat a lot. But I do a lot of running and boxing itself burns a lot of calories.
