× If I wanna get a quick snack, I will choose something like chips or crackers or nuts.

✓ If I want to get a quick snack, I will choose something like chips, crackers, or nuts.

The phrase 'wanna' is informal and not appropriate in formal speaking tests. It should be replaced with 'want to' to correctly use the modal verb structure. Also, commas are added for clarity in the list.

× If someone brings chocolate as a gift when he or she went on traveling, then I'll just take a bite.

✓ If someone brings chocolate as a gift when he or she goes travelling, then I'll just take a bite.

The clause 'when he or she went on traveling' mixes past tense 'went' with present/future context. It should be present tense 'goes travelling' to match the conditional 'If someone brings'. Also, 'travelling' is the British English spelling.

× Not really, when I was a kid I prefer savory food like crackers, cheese or nuts.

✓ Not really, when I was a kid I preferred savoury food like crackers, cheese, or nuts.

The sentence refers to a past time ('when I was a kid'), so the verb 'prefer' should be in the past tense 'preferred'. Also, 'savory' should be 'savoury' in British English, and commas added for clarity.

× And like many other children who likes Swiss, I just found salty snacks more appealing.

✓ And like many other children who like Swiss, I just found salty snacks more appealing.

The relative pronoun 'who' refers to 'children' which is plural, so the verb should be 'like' not 'likes' to agree in number.

× I guess that's one of the reason why it's favored by a lot.

✓ I guess that's one of the reasons why it's favoured by a lot of people.

The phrase 'one of the reason' is incorrect because 'reason' should be plural 'reasons' after 'one of the'. Also, 'favored' is corrected to British English spelling 'favoured', and 'by a lot' is incomplete, so 'by a lot of people' is clearer.
