I’m not a huge fan of any of those TBH!
Try and aim to get a good quality source of protein and fibre in each of your snacks, as protein is the most thermogenic nutritent (your body burns more calories digesting it than other macronutrients), high protein foods give a greater feeling of satiety (as does fibre) than other food sources and it can also helps maintain and build muscle (if you doing some form of resistance training).
I would suggest:
Whey protein shake or bar or beef/turkey jerky or hard boiled eggs or can of tuna or yoghurt + a piece of fruit or vegetable or salad or Larabar or small handful of mixed nuts
