Try and sit in front of the TV watching sports all weekend and not have a bowl of snacks nearby. No pretzels. No chips. No dip. Nothing.

Never happen. We watch sports, we snack. It's part of our genetic makeup. Cavemen used to sit around the cave watching saber-toothed tigers chase other cavemen around, while eating deep-fried pterodactyl wings in Woolly Buffalo sauce.

Problem is the snacks that taste good are usually the ones that are the worst for you. But I'll be damned if I'm going to watch the Final Four with a bag of rice cakes in my lap.

I won't have to. LesserEvil Snack Company specializes in "better-for-you" snacks (all-natural without things like preservatives, trans-fatty acids, artificial flavors, or high fructose corn syrup) that are not only edible, they actually taste good. How good? Their All Natural Kettle Corn became the number one selling popcorn brand in natural retail stores in less than two years. Now they're following up that success with their Krinkle Sticks.

A lesser evil alternative to potato chips, the crisp, crunchy Krinkle Sticks are baked, not fried, have 75 percent less fat than potato chips and no trans fats, saturated fats, cholesterol, artificial flavors or preservatives.

There's four flavors: Classic SeaSalt, SourCream & Onion, Old School Bar-B-Que and Cajun KaBOOM!, just to keep things interesting. And, I would think, to keep you from being tempted to dunk them in high fat dips.

Grab a few bags for the games this weekend. You'll feel healthier. She'll appreciate you taking care of yourself. And it's easier than jogging.
