I actually ate a lot of these while I was recovering from my hip replacement. I found cheese and crackers a tasty treat and I ate a lot of sandwiches.

Matthopkinson, What should I put on my baked potato if I want it to be healthy but don't want it to be plain? (Butter, sour cream, cheddar cheese, bacon, all make it less healthy)

I like corn, spring onions and low fat cheese. How about black beans, chilli and greek yoghurt.Anything in moderation is OK I believe, you can only be so healthy, it has to taste good right.
