One idea is that make our own Jello and Pudding cups. I buy the small boxes of Pudding and Jello Sugar Free, Fat Free variety make a batch and then put the servings in some nice Rubbermaid single serving bowls w/lid  that I purchased from Dollar Tree.  They are the Take Along Small Rounds: http://rubbermaid.com/rubbermaid/product/category.jhtml?cat=HPCat100067 :

They are also available at Walmart and Target and other places Rubbermaid is sold. These work great for all types of snacks even dry snacks. I use these on the go and at home.

Also, you can buy large bags of snacks and chips and some of the "Snack Bag" ziploc bags and repackage them as soon as you get home. I have done this for about 1yr for my boys and it really does help. My boys could/would eat a whole bag of snacks in one sitting. This has really helped them with that. I buy a big bag of Trader Joe's Cheese Puffs for $1.69 and get about 20 "snack sized" bags out of the one bag. Cost per serving= 8.5¢. Much cheaper then a .33¢ bag of chips and much healthier.
