Op here- thanks everyone. I will definitely look for the squeezable Chobanis - I have not seen them in my giant or WF but will check the safeway. Also love those tubes to freeze smoothies, etc.

I like this site to find half way decent food:

They are square and have all sorts of fun flavors, and from the ones I have gotten do not have added sugars.

The new design and flavors are a huge hit with my kids. I've seen them at Giant and Safeway

yeah they are squeezable greek yogurt-my kids are used to eating greek yogurt so they like them-still sweet but slightly less so and no extra "stuff"

Hardboiled eggs?

Little bags of trail mix?

Or, if you have time to cook, bake up some baked oatmeal with nuts and frozen fruit, and cut squares.

Try fruit.

Sugar is a carb. go-gurts were not low-carb.

Recently someone posted a link to a healthy school lunch blog that included these silicone freezer pop molds: http://www.100daysofrealfood.com/2012/03/19/real-food-tips-4-hints-for-using-freezie-pop-molds/

The molds are tube-like with a cap on the end.

The blogger fills them with healthy smoothies and freezes them. They mostly thaw by lunchtime. I haven't tried them but plan to!

I've banned all yogurt except greek in our house. There is just a crazy amount of sugar in most yogurts. The first to go was the go-gurts - those are the worst - tons of sugar and very low protein and virtually no redeeming qualities I can find except a minimal amount of calcium. EXCEPT that my kids love go-gurts and they are ridiculously easy to transport for lunch, to the beach, on car trips, etc., and they provided an alternative to all of the high-carb snacks out there. My kids are not fond of cheese sticks. Can you suggest other snacks to replace go-gurts in our house, that have many of the positives (quick, easily transportable, low carb), without all of the negatives (high sugar and not much other nutrional value). Any ideas, throw them to me, please!
