Snacks for Kids Delivered to Your Door!!!

I have found a reasonable solution!!!  This is one of the hardest things for me is what to feed my kids now that we are eating mostly plant based foods and I have stopped buying fishy crackers and all the other kinds of crackers and fruit snacks and stuff.  Lisa and Mary both have given me some great ideas for store bought already prepared snacks that don't have as many processed ingredients.  Then today I decided to look at the amazon subscribe and save deals.  I am excited to report that I am now have delivered to my door these items next month:
Fig Bars: 3 different kinds, apple cinnamon, peach apricot, and raspberry (whole wheat of course)
Nature's Bakery Fig Bar, Whole Wheat Apple Cinnamon, 24-Ounce BoxNature's Bakery Fig Bar, Whole Wheat Peach Apricot,24-Ounce BoxNature's Bakery Fig Bar, Whole Wheat Raspberry, 24-Ounce Box
Brothers all natural fruit crisps a variety pack
Brothers-ALL-Natural Variety Pack Crisps (Fuji Apple, Asian Pear, Strawberry/Banana),   Single Serve Bags, (pack of 24)
Stretch Island fruit leather strawberry (there are other kinds too)

Stretch Island Original Fruit Leather, Summer Strawberry, 0.5-Ounce Bars (Pack of 30)
I am going to evaluate it after I get my first order next month.  All together those are costing me $50.  This might be a little bit too much money for us every month but I will see how it goes.  I probably spend that much on snacks each month anyway.  It is a total of 90 items or servings so averaging .55 per serving or item.  I know the fig bars are basically the same price I paid for them or slightly less so why not have them delivered to my door?  One less thing to worry about.
  Some other ideas that I've been given and like are: Just Mangoes from Trader Joes, Texas Caviar from Costco, Seaweed snacks from Costco? or Trader Joes (Anna loves them but the other two are wary of them), Go Go squeeze apple sauce (I know it's probably got some sugar in there but my kids love those things)
I'm not opposed to making homemade snacks but sometimes a mama just gotta have something easy and on hand.  I'm sure you understand.
