With the Weight Watchers Points system, no food is off limits, including snacks, so I've put together a list of some of the Best Weight Watchers Points snacks, voted by people on the plan!
Most of these snacks are available to buy from grocery stores across the US and I have included the Weight Watchers Points values and serving sizes for each of the snacks.
Although there are lots of snacks on the plan that are Zero Points (veggies, fruit, fat free yogurt to name a few) sometimes a salty or sweet snack is what I crave.
I know that most store brought Weight Watcher friendly snacks aren't zero points, but if you pick sensibly you can find ones that satisfy the cravings which don't break the 'Points bank'!
Dairy & Meat Snacks for WW
Since the new plan was introduced in November 2022, people following the WW plan are able to eat fat free cottage cheese, fat free natural yogurt and meats such as wafer thin sliced chicken and turkey breast for Zero Points.
Although I enjoy these foods as a snack, sometimes I just fancy something a little different and I have found all of the products below to be a great help in keeping me satisfied but on plan.
Dairy
- Mini Babybel Light (2 Points per piece)
- Sargento Reduced Fat Light String Cheese (2 Points per string)
- Laughing Cow Creamy light Spreadable Cheese (1 Point per wedge)
- Fat Free Cottage Cheese (Zero Points)
- Whipped Buffalo Style Philadelphia (2 Points for 2 tablespoons)
- Fage Total 0% All Natural Greek Yogurt (Zero Points per serving)
Meats
- Turkey Pepperoni (2 Points for 16 slices)
- Hillshire Farm Ultra Thin Sliced Turkey Breast (Zero Points)
- Old Wisconsin Turkey Sausage Sticks (1 Point per Stick)
Chips & Crackers for WW
Ok, so chips and crackers were one of my downfalls before I started on the WW plan.
I didn't want to give chips up so I just looked around for products that taste great but aren't too high in Points. I've included the Point values for these chips and crackers along with serving sizes.
- Good Thins Corn Sea Salt (4 Points for approx 38 pieces)
- Cheetos Baked Crunchy Cheese (4 Points for approx 34 pieces)
- PopCorners Sea Salt (4 Points for approx 21 chips)
- PopCorners Flex Protein Crisps BBQ (2 Points per 1oz pack)
- Ruffles Baked Original (4 Points for approx 12 chips)
- Rold Gold Fat Free Tiny Twists Pretzels (3 Points for approx 18 pretzels)
- Pepperidge Farm Goldfish Cheddar Baked (4 Points for approx 55 pieces)
- Ritz Toasted Chips Original (4 Points for approx 14 chips)
- Garden Veggie Straws Ranch (4 Points for approx 38 straws)
- Sun Chips Harvest Cheddar (4 Points for approx 14 chips)
- Stacy's Pita Thins Baked Sea Salt (4 Points for approx 13 chips)
- Trader Joe's Everything but the Bagel Crackers (4 Points for approx 14 crackers)
Sweet Snacks for Weight Watchers
Like so many other Weight Watchers, I love sweet snacks and I didn't want to give up all candies and cookies. So over the years, I have tried (& liked) all of these sweet snacks listed below.
They are all (relatively) low in Points, but it should be pointed out that it's probably not the best idea to use all your Points on sweet snacks and then fill up on zero point foods for the rest of the day!

- Protein One Peanut Butter Chocolate Protein Bar (3 Points per bar)
- Smart Sweets Sweet Fish (3 Points per ½ bag - 25g)
- Popsicle Fudgsicle No Sugar Added (2 Points per popsicle)

I just purchased the Treasure Mills School Safe Snack Company chocolate chip Oat bites. Two per pack. They are dairy free, nut free and vegetarian. The nutrition ingredients are based on two pieces. 8g of sugar, 3g protein, 4g fiber and 180 calories
I can’t find the WW point value. Can you help with this?
Gigi says
6 points
Carol Serrett says
This is very useful information. I remember WW from years ago they told us the first thing people with a weight a problem do is flip the package over to see how many pieces they can eat in their calorie allocation.

Hello, I noticed you mentioned the Premier protein choc shake is 1 point for 11 ounces. When I scan the container it says 3 points. This is for a serving size of 2 scoops per 11 ounces. Please reply
