- I’m a dietitian on the Mediterranean diet, and I try to find healthy snacks even when I travel.
- Nuts and popcorn are some of my absolute favorites, especially when I find brands I like.
- When there’s a Farmer’s Fridge in the airport, I’ll grab a pesto pasta bowl as a light meal.
As a dietitian who tries to stick to the Mediterranean diet, I’ve found some go-to airport snacks that make travel days a little more bearable.
These aren’t my everyday eats, so they don’t fit the Mediterranean diet to a T — especially considering this eating style tends to avoid processed foods. However, I think they’re a better fit than the ubiquitous bags of potato chips and cookies.
Most airports, especially those across the US, tend to stock similar products at convenience-store-style spots like Hudson News. If you can’t find the exact brand or product I recommend, though, I’m pretty confident there will be something similar.
Without further ado, here are my favorite airport snacks.
