Snacks for LCHF

The options for snacking while on LCHF are very slim.  It's easy to avoid the temptation of snacking when you're alone, but when you have guests over or your dearest is snacking next to you it becomes tempting. 

Luckly there are some things you can snack on and feel pretty guilt free while on LCHF.  For example :

Beef Jerky or any type of jerky - make sure it's low in sugar, or you can make your own.
Pork Rind/flæskesvær - It's the only time in my life I can eat them without any guilt.  Thank god for the Danes and their flæskesvær it's heaven sent.
Cheese slices/pieces - with butter or cream cheese on it.  The higher the fat content the better.
Celerey - with butter or cream cheese.
Boiled Eggs - with butter or cream cheese or mayonaise.
Ham slices - with butter or cream cheese
1 piece Chocolate - 70% or higher.  I eat 86% dark chocolate since it is really low in carbs compared to 70%.
Brazil nuts - has only 3.8g of carbs per 100g.
Coconut butter mixed with Cocoa powder, cinnamon and heavy cream. 
Parmesan cheese chips - or any cheese chips  http://lowcarbdiets.about.com/od/snacks/r/cheesecrisps.htm
Heavy whipped cream - with cocoa poweder, vanilla powder, or with a little raspberries.
Meat chips - in Sweden there are moose and deer meat chips, in Germany there is pork chips.  Or take some ham slices and bake them in the oven.
Ölkorv/Salami - type meats sausages, make sure to check the carb amount.
Bacon strips - with cream cheese spread on top (one of my personal favorites).
High fat yoghurt - with shredded coconut or cinnamon.
