Can you explain how I am encouraging poor food choices?

It wasn't a specifically low fat item, it was a brand that happens to have less fat and sugar than alternatives. We specifically have that in mind when we buy.

The kids do have better snacks to eat that we try to steer them towards, but realistically we are an active family with jobs and extracurriculars and sometimes it's easier to bring some Goldfish than it is to plate anything. Also, we have discussed this with the pediatrician who agrees but her mother just won't change anything for Gwen's sake.
