snackless
Lacking between-meal bites
Snackless means without snacks—either lacking them entirely or going without them temporarily.
The word usually carries a note of mild deprivation or complaint: I'm stuck at my desk, snackless and starving.
A snackless pantry has nothing to nibble on; a snackless road trip is poorly planned.
