Healthy Diet for Truck Drivers from Knight
Link to article:

excerpt from full article below:
Here are some good snack ideas that you can find at some truck stops. Below are a few of them:
Apples and peanut butter – a childhood treat that we know and love. Protein, healthy fats and sustained energy.
Yogurt – contains vitamin B-12 that help with mental clarity and depression and probiotics which help with gut bacteria to have a stronger immune system.
Trail mix – is made up of dried fruits, granola, and nuts. Others may contain pumpkin and sunflower seeds. All these contain potassium and vitamin C, which are good for heart health.
Hard-boiled eggs – a rich source of protein; a single egg can yield 70 calories of energy and 6 grams of protein.
Popcorn– contains antioxidants called polyphenols that can help your body fight osteoporosis, cancer, and diabetes. However, avoid toppings and opt for the plain or lightly salted options.
Tuna Pouch – high in Omega-3 fatty acids, it will protect your body from coronary diseases while providing a great source of protein.
Also, to the above I would like to add some:
-canned sardines
-chicken salad
-protein shakes
