7 Addictive Artisanal Snacks We Can’t Stop Buying From Amazon

A charcuterie board full of Artisanal Snacks including various cheeses, olives, crackers and fruit

If there’s one thing in life we always prioritize, it’s our meals. Nothing is worse than a bout of “hanger” (translation: hungry anger), so keeping snacks on hand at all times is key. But these days, chowing down on apples and peanut butter just isn’t cutting it anymore. So what’s a girl to do when she knows she’ll need some tasty snacks for a midday (or midnight) craving but doesn’t have time to comb through the grocery store aisles during the week? You’re probably accustomed to doing your book and household shopping on Amazon, but what you may not know is that the site is a diamond in the rough for artisanal snacks as well. Here are seven of our favorite goodies available on the online shop … you’ll be asking Alexa to add to add these your cart ASAP.

Snack Attack

Pipcorn Delicious Mini Popcorn

This mini popcorn is the perfect afternoon pick-me-up. It's gluten-free, non-GMO, vegan and whole-grain. We like to get our truffle fix with these mini kernels of joy, but you can't go wrong with the rosemary or sea salt flavors either!

Enstrom Milk Chocolate Almond Toffee

Do not buy just one box of Enstrom's Milk Chocolate Almond Toffee. We repeat, do not buy just one box! You may think one pound of this candy will last you a while but after you taste its deliciousness, you'll be hooked. Between the texture and balance of sweetness, it will be gone before you know it.

Zesty Z

Technically, spreads aren't snacks, but you can make so many delicious snacks with this za'atar condiment that we had to include it. Pour it over popcorn or add it to your hummus; it also makes a great addition to any cheeseboard. Zesty Z is paleo- and Whole 30–friendly. Yes, please.

Crème Brûlée Almonds

Crème brûlée almonds are our favorite way to sneak in a snack and feel like we're indulging in a decadent dessert. While they're nice for a polite nosh, we recommend eating these nuts by the handful. Go ahead, treat yourself.

Moon Cheese

Cheese is the only ingredient in these crunchy nibbles. They taste like your favorite cheese-flavored crackers but don't have all the crazy carbs. Moon Cheese is available in pepper jack, gouda and cheddar flavors, but we're going to be "cheesy" and recommend the variety pack.

Go Bacon Premium Uncured Bacon Jerky

We will never, ever turn down bacon in a bag. Stock up on pouches of Go Bacon for times when you need a protein-packed snack. Go Bacon's Premium Uncured Bacon Jerky lets you eat the best part of breakfast at any time of day or night.

Fatty Sundays

Sometimes it's hard to decide between sweet and savory, and we appreciate any snack where we don't have to choose. Fatty Sundays answered our prayers with chocolate-covered pretzels that bring flavor creativity to the plate (flavors include Birthday Cake and Speculoos). Our only concern: You might have to hide them from your family and coworkers because they're that good.
