Nutrition expert Stefani Sassos recommends kid-approved, award-winning snacks and simple lunch-packing habits to ease stressful school mornings and reduce food waste. Sassos suggests involving children in evening lunch prep and choosing items with fiber, protein, and healthy fats. Top picks include LesserEvil cheese puffs, Uno Bites mini cucumbers, Once Upon a Farm bars, and Horizon chocolate milk. She notes families waste about $2,912 yearly on uneaten food; asking kids preferences cuts waste and costs. Good Housekeeping's 2026 Snack Awards tested snacks for taste, nutrition, convenience, and value.
