Fresh fruits and veggies are probably the most healthy things you can snack on, but sometimes only a carbohydrate crunch will really satisfy your craving. We’ve recently been munching on LesserEvil snacks, and we have to say, they’re pretty yummy. But are they really that much better for someone trying to eat a healthy diet?

Compared to normal snack food, the LesserEvil snacks live up to their name. Both the Black & White Kettle Corn (coco and caramel) and the Classic Kettle Corn have 110 calories per one-cup serving. The Black & White Corn has 15 grams of sugar per severing, while the classic has 14 grams of sugar. Compare that to Jay’s Caramel Corn, which has 138 calories per serving.
