Thank you all for your posts, being in college and eating snack food all the time I was begining to worry that I wouldn't be able to eat anything! Just curious what caseion is?

1) Casein is a dairy protein. It can be an IBS trigger, as can whey, the other protein in dairy products, and lactose, a sugar in dairy. That's why even lactose-free dairy products can be IBS triggers .
2) I have 2 snack suggestions: One is Stacy's Pita Chips (not the other brand of pita chips I've tried, they were awful! just Stacy's), Sea Salt flavor--the Pesto flavor wasn't salty enough for me . The other is Black Jewel "less hull" popcorn, which is available in bulk for stove popping and in bags for the microwave. The popcorn could still be a problem, but if you miss popcorn, this is a better choice than any other.

Good luck! And trust me, I understand the college student snacking thing--I used to carry baby carrots and granola bars with me everywhere, and I'm addicted to Cheetos--you can imagine what I was unwittingly doing to my tummy!

I love Sun Chips too. I've also had good luck with Rold Gold pretzels and once I found a bag of sweet potato potato chips - baked, even! They were delish and I've never seen them since... now it's a personal quest.
Also in the "salty-crunchy" area are bagel chips, but not too many at once - just a handful.

But - snacky doesn't have to be salty, does it? I'm finding lately that my favourite snack is sliced pears dipped in chocolate soy pudding - sweet and full of vitamins and protein and fibre!

Maybe some homemade cereal-based party mix with your favourite spices?
