WW Points for Common UK Supermarket Snacks

If I want the short answer: plain 0% Greek yoghurt and plain fat-free Skyr are the lowest-Point picks here, while fried crisps, biscuit snacks and mini chocolate treats can use up Points much faster.

I’d sum this guide up like this:

• Best low-Point picks: plain 0% fat Greek yoghurt, plain fat-free Skyr, and some baked crisp snacks
• Usually moderate: Quavers, Walkers French Fries, Fibre One 90 Calorie Bar, and some snack pots
• Often higher: Walkers Ready Salted, cheese and cracker packs, Jaffa Cakes, and fun-size chocolate
• Items that change by flavour or brand: Nakd bars, Trek bars, Grenade Carb Killa bars, Activia fat-free pots, Jaffa Cakes, and Rich Tea biscuits
• Main rule: scan the barcode in the WW app before buying, because flavour, recipe and pack size can change the Points

The article covers 18 snack types from UK supermarkets including Tesco, Aldi, Asda, Sainsbury’s, Lidl and Morrisons. It compares crisps, bars, yoghurts, houmous pots, cheese snack packs, biscuits and chocolate, then sorts them into a simple range:

• 0–3 Points: lower
• 4–6 Points: middle
• 7+ Points: higher

A few numbers stand out straight away:

• Walkers Ready Salted: about 4–5 Points per 28 g
• Quavers: about 2–3 Points per bag
• Walkers French Fries: about 3 Points per 18 g bag
• Fibre One 90 Calorie Bar: about 3 Points
• Plain Skyr / plain 0% Greek yoghurt: often 0 Points
• Fun-size chocolate: often 3–4 Points per portion
• 1 tbsp honey: 3 Points added to yoghurt

Quick Comparison

Bottom line: if I want the best Points value, I’d lean towards plain yoghurt first, then lighter baked savoury snacks. If I want sweet snacks, I’d keep a close eye on portions and scan each pack before I log it.

1. MyWWList low-Point snack guides and printables

MyWWList’s snack guides give you a quick way to compare the supermarket snacks in this article side by side. You can scan calories, fat, fibre and protein to spot lower-Point picks fast.

The guides also show approximate Points per serving for specific snacks.

To make things easier, snacks are split into three groups: ZeroPoint staples, low-Point snacks to buy and higher-Point treats.

You can also download the printable Complete WW ZeroPoint Foods List PDF. Then, before you buy, use the WW app’s barcode scanner to check the exact Points for specific supermarket brands and flavoured versions. Use it as a quick reference before comparing the snacks below.

2. Walkers Ready Salted Crisps multipack

Walkers Ready Salted Crisps sit on the higher side for snacks, with the calories and fat taking them to about 4–5 Points per 28g serving.

If you want a lower-Point swap, baked crisps are often the better pick at 2–3 Points per serving. You can also pair crisps with fruit or veg to bring the overall Points balance down a bit.

If you’re after something lighter and still want that crunch, the next crisps are a lower-Point choice.

3. Quavers multipack

A standard multipack bag of Quavers is around 2–3 Points per bag. That’s lower than many fried crisp servings, which often come in at 4–5 Points or more. So if you want that salty, crunchy snack without using as many Points, Quavers usually come out ahead here.

WW Points per serving

A standard multipack bag of Quavers is around 2–3 Points per bag.

Serving size

Track one individual multipack bag as one serving. This also makes portion control simpler, since each bag is already pre-portioned.

Snack category

Quavers fall into the lower-Point baked snack group, which is why they often beat fried crisp options.

Best lower-Point use

Quavers work better when you pair them with protein or fibre for better satiety. For example, you could have them alongside a boiled egg, a pot of cottage cheese, or some crunchy veg. Next, compare another lighter crisp-style snack.

4. Walkers French Fries multipack

Walkers French Fries are a pre-portioned savoury snack, which makes them easy to track using a Weight Watchers food points list. One 18g bag comes to around 3 WW Points.

WW Points per serving

One 18g bag is 3 Points.

Serving size

Track one 18g multipack bag as a single serving.

Best lower-Point use

French Fries work well when you want a lighter savoury snack without getting into guesswork over portions. They’re already measured out, so it’s simple: one bag, one serving. Next, compare another low-Point crunchy snack.

5. Snack A Jacks mini rice cakes

Snack A Jacks mini rice cakes are on the lower end of the Points range, which makes them a handy grab-and-go snack that’s simple to track.

WW Points per serving

Track one multipack bag as one serving.

Best lower-Point use

They work best plain. If you want a bit more flavour, add paprika or garlic powder.

If you’d rather have something sweet, compare these low point chocolates.

6. Fibre One 90 Calorie Bar

Fibre One 90 Calorie Bar is a sweet, pre-portioned snack bar that helps keep serving sizes in check, making it one of many grocery staples for those on the plan.

Serving size and Points

Track one bar (24–25g) as around 3 Points.

Best lower-Point use

This works well when you want something sweet without letting Points creep up. Because it’s already portioned, there’s no guesswork. Just grab one and move on.

7. Nakd bar

Track one Nakd bar as sold, and scan the barcode in the WW app to get the exact Points. The value changes by flavour, so it’s worth checking instead of guessing. You can also use the barcode scan to compare it with other bars in this list.

Serving size

Track one bar.

WW Points per serving

Points vary by flavour, so scan the barcode in the WW app.

Best lower-Point use

A Nakd bar can work well when you want a sweet snack and have the Points to use. If you want something lighter, fat-free yoghurt or Weight Watchers 0 point foods like fresh fruit will usually come in lower.

If you want a bar with more protein next time, compare it with the Trek bar.

8. Trek bar

If you want a snack with more protein than a Nakd bar, Trek bars are the next thing to look at. They’re made as a higher-protein bar, so they can help keep you fuller between meals.

Serving size

Track one bar as sold. It’s worth checking the pack first, because flavour and bar size can change the Points.

WW Points per serving

For the exact Points, scan the barcode or check the WW app for the bar you’ve chosen.

Best lower-Point use

If your main goal is the lowest Points, fat-free Greek yoghurt or rice cakes are often the better pick. Trek bars make more sense when you need something portable and a bit more filling.

If you want a lower-Point dairy option next, compare the yoghurt pots below.

9. Grenade Carb Killa bar

Grenade Carb Killa bars are high-protein snack bars. WW Points can change by flavour, so it’s best to scan the exact bar in the app rather than guess.

Serving size

Track one bar, just as it’s sold.

WW Points per serving

Points depend on the flavour and the bar size, so scan the barcode to get the exact value.

Best lower-Point use

These bars make sense when you need something easy to carry and you’ve got the Points available. They’re handy on busy days, but they’re not always the lowest-Point pick.

If you want a lower-Point swap, go for plain eggs or fat-free Greek yoghurt, depending on your plan.

If you’d rather stick with dairy, compare the yoghurt pots next.

10. 0% fat Greek yoghurt

Plain 0% fat Greek yoghurt is one of the easiest 0-Point snacks on WW. On most current WW plans, it’s one of many ZeroPoint foods, which means it doesn’t come out of your daily Points budget.

Snack category

A filling protein-and-dairy snack.

Serving size

A single plain pot or a spooned portion from a tub still counts as 0 Points.

WW Points per serving

Most plain own-brand versions from major UK supermarkets are 0 Points, as long as they’re plain and unsweetened. Own-brand plain 0% fat Greek yoghurts from major UK supermarkets also stay at 0 Points when unflavoured.

Flavoured fat-free yoghurts usually aren’t 0 Points. If you’re not sure, scan the barcode.

Best lower-Point use

To keep this snack at 0 Points, stick with plain yoghurt and simple toppings. Berries or cinnamon add flavour for 0 extra Points. Honey is where things change fast: 1 tbsp adds 3 Points.

Plain 0% fat Greek yoghurt also works well in dips and salads in place of mayonnaise or sour cream.

Next: Activia fat-free yoghurt.

11. Activia fat-free yoghurt

Activia fat-free yoghurt falls into the same WW Points food list for dairy as plain 0% Greek yoghurt. But the flavour matters. Some pots can come in higher, so don’t assume every fat-free Activia is ZeroPoint.

Snack category

Dairy snack.

Serving size

Track one pot as sold.

WW Points per serving

Activia fat-free pots vary by flavour, so check the exact pot in the WW app before you log it.

Best lower-Point use

If you want to keep Points lower, go for the plain fat-free version and add berries yourself.

For another high-protein yoghurt pick, compare Skyr yoghurt pots next.

12. Skyr yoghurt pot

Skyr is another plain dairy snack worth keeping an eye on. You’ll usually find it in the chilled aisle, and the plain fat-free pots stand out for one big reason: they’re low in Points and high in protein.

Snack category

Dairy snack.

Serving size

Track one pot as sold. Standard UK pots are usually 150–170 g.

WW Points per serving

Plain fat-free Skyr is usually 0 Points, so a 150–170 g pot normally stays at 0. Each pot gives around 15–18 g of protein, which is what makes it different from many other yoghurt options.

Flavoured pots or ones with a fruit layer are higher in Points and can come in at 3–6 Points, so it’s best to scan the exact pot in the app.

Best lower-Point use

Go for plain fat-free Skyr if you want to keep it at 0 Points. Add berries or banana and you’ve got a snack that feels a bit more filling without making tracking harder.

Next: reduced-fat houmous snack pots.

13. Reduced-fat houmous snack pots

Reduced-fat houmous snack pots sit somewhere between a plain dip and a full snack pack when it comes to Points. They’re handy for busy days, but the Points can shift quite a bit depending on the brand and what’s in the pack.

Snack category

Savoury dip.

Serving size

Pack sizes vary by brand.

WW Points per serving

Houmous is not a ZeroPoint food, so the Points depend on the exact product you buy. If the pack comes with crackers or pitta, it will cost more Points than a plain pot.

Best lower-Point use

Use a plain houmous pot with ZeroPoint vegetable dippers instead of crackers or pitta. Carrots, cucumber, celery, peppers, broccoli, cauliflower, tomatoes and courgette all work well. In most cases, a plain pot with veg dippers comes out lower in Points.

Next, compare cheese and cracker snack packs.

14. Cheese and cracker snack pack

Snack category

Savoury snack pack.

Serving size

Track the pack as sold. Most single snack packs come in at around 25–30g.

WW Points per serving

Cheese-and-cracker packs tend to sit in the moderate-to-high Points range because both parts of the pack count. The crackers add up, and the cheese does too. Crackers on their own can be around 2 Points, and sweet dips or relish push the total higher.

Put simply: these packs are handy, but they don’t usually give you the best Points return compared with plainer snacks. They’re more of a grab-and-go option than something you’d lean on as a lower-Point regular.

Best lower-Point use

Go for reduced-fat cheese or reduced-fat mozzarella, and pick wholemeal crackers when you can. It’s also worth skipping packs with sweet dips or relish, since those extras add more Points.

If you’re after something on the sweeter side, the next section moves into a biscuit-style treat.

15. Jaffa Cakes

Snack category

Sweet biscuit snack.

WW Points per serving

Track Jaffa Cakes as sold and scan the pack in the WW app, as Points vary by brand and pack size. Log the exact pack in the app, then compare it with the next biscuit-style snack.

Best lower-Point use

If you want a lower-Point sweet snack, it’s worth comparing Jaffa Cakes with plainer biscuits or fruit. Fancy a plain biscuit next time? Compare them with Rich Tea biscuits.

16. Rich Tea biscuits

Snack category

Plain sweet biscuit.

WW Points per serving

Check the exact pack in the WW app; Points vary by brand and pack size.

Best lower-Point use

After Jaffa Cakes, Rich Tea gives you a simpler biscuit option. They work well with a cup of tea when you want something plain and not too heavy. To make the snack more filling, have them with fresh fruit or plain 0% fat Greek yoghurt. Keep an eye on portions so Points don’t creep up.

If you’re after something sweeter, compare them with fun-size chocolate bars next.

17. Fun-size chocolate bars

Chocolate is one of the easiest snacks to overlog, so portion size matters more than most people think.

Snack category

Confectionery.

Serving size

Track one fun-size bar or 1–2 pieces.

WW Points per serving

Most fun-size portions come in at 3–4 Points. Always check the Weight Watchers Smart Points food list or the WW app for the exact product you’re buying, because Points can change a lot from one brand or flavour to another.

These examples show how fast chocolate Points can shift depending on portion and brand.

Best lower-Point use

Track chocolate before you eat it, so it fits into your daily budget. It’s easy to think a couple of small pieces won’t matter, but the numbers add up fast. Two Lindt Lindor truffles at 4 Points each is already 8 Points.

If you want a lower-Point branded sweet snack, compare it with the WW branded snack bar next.

18. WW branded snack bar

After chocolate snacks with changing portions and values, this is the easiest branded sweet option to track.

Snack category

High-protein snack bar.

Serving size

Log one bar as sold.

WW Points per serving

Double Chocolate Mousse, Chocolate Raspberry Cream and Chocolate Strawberry Cream are all 3 Points per bar. That fixed value makes them simple to plan into your day.

Best use

These bars work well as a pre-portioned sweet treat at the end of the day or as a mid-afternoon snack when you need something to tide you over between meals.

For lower-Point swaps across snack types, see the trade-offs below.

Snack Category Trade-Offs: Pros, Cons and Best Swaps

With these snacks, the main trade-off comes down to crunch, protein and sweetness.

Crisps such as Walkers Ready Salted, Quavers and French Fries are easy to grab, but fried versions often go above 5 Points for a small portion. The catch is fullness. If you aren’t sure of the values, you can use a SmartPoints calculator to check specific brands. Most crisps don’t offer much protein or fibre, so they can be easy to eat without feeling satisfied for long.

Snack bars like Fibre One, Nakd, Trek, Grenade and WW branded bars are simple to track, which is handy. But sugar and chocolate can push the Points total up faster than you might expect.

0% fat Greek yoghurt, Activia fat-free and Skyr usually give one of the best filling-to-Points ratios in this list. They tend to be high in protein and are often ZeroPoint on most plans. So if you want something that fills you up without costing many Points, this group stands out.

Sweet treats such as Jaffa Cakes, Rich Tea biscuits and fun-size chocolate bars are best kept for now and then, because sugar and fat send Points upwards while protein and fibre stay low.

The table below sums up the main trade-offs.

That makes the better swaps much easier to spot before you move on to the conclusion.

If two snacks seem almost the same on the shelf, check protein and fibre first. In many cases, the snack with more of both will have a lower Points value and keep you full for longer.

Use the printables above or this WW Original Points food list to shortlist lower-Point snacks before you shop.

Conclusion

Across the snacks in this guide, one thing stands out: fat-free Greek yoghurt is one of the best-value WW options here. It gives you a lot for your Points, which is hard to ignore.

Lighter savoury snacks in this guide tend to land in the 2–4 Points range, especially if you keep portions under control. That makes them a decent pick when you want something a bit more filling without using too many Points.

If you want something sweet and easy to carry, a WW chocolate bar is a steady 3 Points. If fullness matters more, go for yoghurt or a lighter savoury snack. If convenience matters more, the bar makes sense.

Before you buy, scan the item in the WW app. Points can change by brand, flavour, and pack size. It’s also worth checking the pack label, since serving sizes differ from one product to another.

Use the earlier snack lists to narrow down your options, then confirm the latest Points in the WW app before you shop.

FAQs

Why do WW Points change between flavours?

WW Points are worked out from a food’s nutrition, including calories, protein, fat, and sugar. That means flavour matters.

Why? Because different flavours often use different amounts of oils, seasonings, or sugars. Even a small tweak in the ingredients can change the nutrition, which can then change the Points value too.

So a flavoured version may not have the same Points value as the plain one. It’s always worth checking the nutrition for each flavour, even if the difference looks minor at first glance.

Which UK supermarket snacks are most filling for low Points?

For filling snacks that stay low in WW Points, go for foods high in protein and fibre. Plain eggs are a great pick because they’re often zero Points and can help keep you full for longer.

You can eat them hard-boiled or turn them into egg muffins with non-starchy vegetables like spinach, peppers or mushrooms.

If you’re buying packaged snacks, choose baked lower-calorie options instead of fried ones.

How can I keep sweet snacks lower in WW Points?

To keep sweet snacks lower in WW Points, build them around protein, fibre, and healthy fats. That mix helps you stay full for longer, so you’re less likely to go back for “just one more”.

When you want chocolate, go for dark chocolate when you can. If you prefer milk or white chocolate, keep the portion small. In recipes, cocoa powder is often a smarter swap than semi-sweet chocolate.

You can also sweeten things like yoghurt or porridge without adding extra sugar. Try zero-calorie sweeteners such as stevia or monk fruit instead of honey or sugar.
