What are the best road trip snacks?

I want to get some snacks for a 15-hour road trip from St. Louis to Tampa. I'm not too worried about being unhealthy, but I also want a mix of healthy snacks and pure indulgence. What are the best road trip snacks?

“Road trip snacks are one of the many
road trip essentials
.
If you want traditional road trip snacks and aren’t worried about calories, sugar, or fat, try these:
  • Beef jerky (great for protein but high in sodium)
  • Twizzlers (candy that doesn’t melt)
  • Pringles (not as messy as regular chips)
  • Cans of soda that fit in the cup holder
If you want something healthier, opt for these:
  • Black coffee (iced or hot)
  • Veggies
  • Fresh fruit
  • String cheese
  • Granola bars
  • Nuts
  • Water
