We all love to snack so I encourage my kids to incorporate in their 5-a-day by decorating a slice of Soreen with sliced or chopped fruit e.g. bananas, blueberries, strawberries, kiwi etc. This encourages them to explore new tastes, new smells and textures while making pictures or patterns on the bread. This way snacking takes longer, is more satisfying and always finger licking good.

Keep the fat content down. So avoid biscuits and crisps and substitute fruit or Soreen malt loaf. I used to eat it with a huge slab of butter but the individual loaves have cured me of that, so thanks Soreen!

I love mashed banana as a snack, with just a little bit of milk.

I cut up vegetables and fruit and leave them in the fridge to grab a quick snack. As well I keep almonds handy too

I often enjoy a thin slice of malt loaf as my lunch with tomato, cucumber, sliced pepper & olives as I don't like sweet foods at all. Trouble is I also enjoy the chunk of cheese which I just HAVE to add to the plate.

I make up a jar of mixed healthy treats, and snack on a handful, transferred to a tiny bowl. Sunflower, pumpkin, sesame seeds, dried strawberries and raspberries, chopped nuts , sultanas, chopped apricots , figs and prunes, plus any other bits I happen to have. I alternate with a mix of chopped salad, radishes, fennel, celery, cucumber, courgette, spring onions and beetroot. The small pieces take longer to eat, and you get a good variety of texture and flavour.

I like Soreen with plenty of butter and a nice cup of tea and now they do mini ones so I can fit in a lunch box if going out on a picnic. But not going out since March. I keep some in my bread bin Good to keep a space keeps longer than bread.

I always just have a few mixed nuts if I am hungry but try not to eat in between meals.

Soreen is a special treat for after tea with lovely homemade lemon curd on it. Beautiful.

I try not to snack between meals, but I do look forward to a small portion of something sweet with my afternoon tea, and am partial to a small slice of buttered Soreen. However, if I do feel hungry, I drink a large glass of water which usually does the trick.

My go to snack when feeling peckish is Brazil nuts, they are full of goodness and 2 or 3 are more than enough to take that hunger pang away. Delicious too.

I just love the taste, the thicker the slice the better for me !

Watermelon for me - especially in warm weather.

Although having read this thread and seen people discussing malt loaf with cheese I’ve just added Soreen to the online shop for the first time in about 15 years!

I have two buttered slices of Soreen for breakfast, when I top them with banana slices, I don’t need a snack. In fact it keeps me going till mid afternoon.
My tip is to plan in advance for snacks. DH needed to cut back, so I prepared healthy snack boxes. Combinations of cheese, cherry tomatoes, grapes, celery, nuts, Bread sticks, sun dried tomatoes, cucumber and carrot sticks, scallions, pineapple cubes. Once or twice a week a box will have a chocolate Or cake treat. Because I am controlling the snacks I have to be good too..
I must confess that this is a good intention that I haven’t yet implemented.

I very rarely snack but if it is hot I would have an ice cream.
Soreen is sometimes eaten after lunch as a dessert

I've given up snacking because it was interfering with my weight loss and metabolism. I've lost more weight since. That said, if I feel super-hungry I go for complex carb and/or high protein - so maybe a few nuts or very small cheese and crunchy veg like sliced pepper, carrot sticks or celery. Means you chew lots which helps the feeling of fullness. I avoid sugar because it's addictive, with empty calories.

I have stopped spreading margarine or butter on bread, toast, buns and my Soreen fruit loaf, so I can snack a bit more with no extra calorie damage.

Chop up some of your favourite crudites and have them ready to go in the fridge, when you feel the need to open that magic door LOL

When sharing a snack with the kids, chop some grapes or apples. Peanut butter is great to dip them in. Some cubed cheese and some Soreen loaf buttered. Easy and you get fruit, fibre and dairy.

If I'm longing for a snack, but know that I'm not really hungry, I start by drinking a glass of water then make myself wait ten minutes. Quite often, the craving has passed by then.

If it hasn't, I might have a very small bowl of muesli, as the mixture of oats, fruit and nuts seems to satisfy the craving, meaning I don't go back for more like I do with things like biscuits, crisps or nuts.

Maybe I should try Soreen next time, as it sounds like it might work just as well,

I make carrot fingers, swoosh them in olive oil and piquant paprika, and put in a hot oven for five minutes. Lovely !

If I think I might be hungry between meals, I have a cup of tea first and that usually tides me over so I don't end up reaching for unhealthy snacks.

When the 'I need a snack now' button is activated, I drink a glass of water instead of snacking as I'm actually thirsty, rather than hungry.

I keep lots of fruit in the house to have a healthy snack.

I try not to goshopping when I'm hungers so less impulse buying, then if I don't have unhealthy snacks in the house less likely to eat them.

My go to is normally oat cakes with light cream cheese and thinly sliced strawberries but did not realise how healthy this malt loaf really is so have now added to my shopping list, just need to remember to limit myself to one slice?
