Martin's Pretzels by Evan Orensten
It's no secret that sometimes the simplest of foods offer the most pleasure, and anything made by hand with love and a little obsession adds another dimension. Martin's Pretzels are handmade in Pennsylvania and are simply the best you're likely to find. Anywhere. I've been obsessed with them for years. Their site provides great history of the pretzel, photos and video of the kitchen, information about their schedule at several New York City farmer markets, and online ordering. Best of all, you can get 3 lbs of pretzel love for $14, making these tasty treats one of the most reasonably priced artisinal snacks around.

Spicy Thai flavor Kettle Chips
There are a few reasons why these chips should be in your pantry. First off, they taste great. They have a not in-your-face combination of sweet, salty, spicy, tangy, and heat. Second, they are one of two flavors, along with Cheddar Beer (which taste better than they sound) that won Kettle Foods' People's Choice awards, where customers got to submit flavors and then vote...

Mari's Brownies
With adventurous flavor combinations, like Thai Coffee and Fig Port, made entirely from scratch using premium ingredients and a fudgey texture, Mari's Brownies are CH's kind of treat. We also like their refreshingly small size, making them a moderate indulgence rather than a "guess-I'm-skipping-dinner" kind. Neatly packaged in their signature Pumpkin-hued baton boxes and wrapped with custom ribbon, the dense, rich squares make perfect...

TerrAmazon Snacks
In the infinite quest to find the most obscure curative health food, TerrAmazon makes a convincing case. With goji berries fast becoming a household name, the creators of TerrAmazon had to explore remote corners of the Amazon rainforest for their snacks. Take their Organic Yacon Slices, for example. Recently rediscovered as a superfood, the indigenous Andean tuber is sliced and then partially dried. The...

Danielle Exotic Fruit and Veggie Chips
by Maxwell Gold Not all dried fruit snacks are created equally. Danielle all-natural, preservative-free Crispy Fruit and Crispy Veggie chips are a step above most other snack foods. We love them because they are cooked in small batches and seasoned with just a touch of salt to bring out the full flavor and to ensure superior taste. We're especially enamored with the thick-cut Crispy Banana...

Pop Chips
On a recent road trip we tried some Pop Chips and were very pleased with their light and crisp taste. Even better, they are not fried (fat and oil) or baked (dry and tasteless). Instead, Pop Chips use a combination of heat and pressure to create a healthy but delicious snack. We enjoyed the Parmesean Garlic Potato Chips a bit more than the Wasabi...
