Kid version: Sprinkl'ins
Healthier upgrade: Yopa Greek Vanilla Yogurt with Kellogg's Special K
I loved getting this yogurt for lunch as a kid! But now, I've swapped it for some greek yogurt with crunchy mix-ins like Kellog's Special K! It has way less sugar and has four times as much protein as Sprinkl'ins!
4. Pretzels

Kid version: Pretzel Stix
Healthier upgrade: Hummus With Pretzels
By adding hummus to the pretzel mix, you get some protein and some healthy fat.
What you choose to wear while working out can have a significant impact on your comfort and performance. One essential item is the sports bra. Lack of proper support can lead to discomfort and muscle tissue damage. Choosing a good sports bra can help prevent these problems and ensure a great workout!
5. Pudding
