My husband keeps these in his work drawer and bed stand.  As a diabetic, he's insulin dependent and prefers carbs, fat, and crackers (crackers, tuna salad) if his numbers are low.  Also, he has some candy in both places but the Bumble Bee Snacks work well for him. Not everyone may respond the way he does, so if you're diabetic keep something in places you can access easily and doesn't need refrigeration if you start to feel wonky.
