We test portable health snacks ahead of festival season

Published on June 21, 2025 at 11:27 PM

GLASTONBURY kicks off on Wednesday, meaning festival season is now in full swing.

That’s great if you like music, partying and booze, but not so brilliant if you are trying to keep on top of your as and drinks at venues come with high prices and low nutrients.

One of the best things you can do is take some .

Today, I’ve put some to the  . . . 

Turkey bar

Box of Roam Turkey protein bars.
Roam free-range turkey bar is just 95 calories per 45g bar, with 16.7g of protein

ROAM free-range turkey baris just that – a meat bar with a 12-month shelf life that you don’t need to put in the fridge.

Perfect for .

This is 91 per cent turkey meat, with some whey protein concentrate to boost the protein levels and some salt, sugar, flavourings, mustard, yeast extract and herbs.

It is just 95 calories per 45g bar, with 16.7g of protein.

This is a great idea – think of a Peperami type snack without all the additives and made with just natural ingredients.

From £2 a bar.

Seaweed crisps

Bag of Emily Seaweed Crisps, Sweet Chilli flavor.

EMILY sriracha seaweed crisps are made out of just that – seaweed – which is a “”; as it is rich in antioxidants, and minerals.

It contains iodine, which is great for thyroid function.

Obviously, you’re better off with fresh seaweed as these also contain tapioca, corn oil, rice powder, sugar, salt and dried molasses.

They look like a very thin prawn cracker with seaweed inside.

They’re spicy, crunchy – but oddly soft at the same time.

However, you get used to this.

These are moreish.

They have a bit of an odd smell, but that would probably go unnoticed at a festival.

These are 5 per cent fibre but 36 per cent fat and 98 calories for an 18g bag.

They are on offer at for 80p.

Corn nibbles

Bag of Indulge Tex Mex Cheese Crunchy Corn Nibbles; vegan friendly, gluten free, no nuts, high in fibre.
Indulge crunchy corn nibbles were originally served as in-flight snacks

INDULGE crunchy corn nibbles were originally served as in-flight snacks so they are packed with flavour because, when we’re flying, the reduced moisture and lower air pressure diminish our sense of taste.

I tried the Tex Mex cheese, which is made from corn, sunflower oil, salt, cheese flavouring, maltodextrin starch from potatoes, colouring from red pepper and an antioxidant.

These are five per cent fat and five per cent fibre.

Only 99 calories per 20g bag.

They are crunchy and cheesy, but there is a lot of powder on them, so wet wipes at the ready.

The little bags are a bit fiddly too.

Don’t try if you don’t love corn, asyou can certainly taste that, but a healthy on-the-go snack if you do.

They are £7.99 for a multipack of eight at amazon.co.uk.
