Best Bites: Oh Snap! Dilly Bites
There is nothing super special about these pickles themselves. They taste like a good dill pickle chip. What is special is the packaging. They are fresh-packed in an easy-to-open pouch, so they stay super crunchy.

Best of all: They are vegetables your kids will eat and at only 15 calories a pack, you may make them your go-to snack, too.

My ex was evidently surfing Facebook recently, found us, and now wants to meet his son. Our son does not know my husband is not his biological father. What’s good ex-etiquette?
