My weight loss center offers different high protein snack foods.  I sampled some and they are pretty good.  However, they are expensive. 
I found a website for Kay's Naturals and they have some really yummy looking snacks.  The chips, sweet and savory, as well as pretzels (one of my favorite presurgical treats) and cereals look so good with a nice variety of flavors.  The cost is just under what I would pay at the center. 
Has anyone heard of these, if so are they good?  I'm thinking about ordering a sample pack.  Just wanted some feedback first. 
Any suggestions for crunchy, salty foods that aren't carb-filled?

My surgeon had a few samples of these for us to try. I don't remember which ones I tasted, but I do remember that everything I tried was really good - start with the sample pack and go from there! Good luck to you!

 I have tried quite a few varieties of the Kay's products - I liked the cookies the best.

Our grocery store "giant" sells sample packages of these... I've tried a couple and they are good, plus include protein... whoo hoo... Hope the store starts selling the regular packages.

I eat Kay’s Naturals Chili Nacho Cheese Protein Chips. 1 ounce equals 110 calories and 10 grams of protein. 

 

I purchase them on Amazon.com through the Subscribe and Save program for $28.23 for 12-5 ounce boxes and free Super Saver Shipping.

 

I eat them with 2 ounces of low fat cheese and a variety of raw vegetables at lunch.

 

I have been eating them for the last 2 years and enjoy them very much. I have tried Kay’s other protein products but these are my favorite.

I agree. I tried samples of three things, and didn't like any. The only thing worse than the pretzels were the chips. Yuck.

 So I just wonder - my NUT discourages these types of things because it's too similiar to "old eating behavior" of chips, snacks, etc. Has anyone found that it triggers that same experience for you, or do you find yourself overeating them?

I am traveling to Vietnam at Christmas and need some easy high protein things that don't require refrigeration and so I am hoping to get some protein snack type things..

thanks

Nuts. Almonds, cashews, peanuts, whatever. They require no refrigeration, are natural rather than highly processed, and have both protein and some healthy fats. (They are high in fat, though, so you don't want to overdo it.)

Also, turkey pepperoni sticks are convenient.
