I love trail mix. It is a staple I eat on the weekends as we usually have a lot going on and are pretty active.
There is one particular brand that I love which is called “Monster” trail mix by Archer Farms. I have only seen this brand at Target (not even normally considered a grocery store) so I am not sure if it is a Target-branded output, but they are consistently in the Target stores where I live in California.
The reason I prefer this brand is it is straightforward and chocolate heavy - it has peanuts, raisins, chocolate chips, peanut butter chips and M&Ms. A lot of trail mixes are too bland - too many peanuts (and sometimes other nuts like walnuts or cashews) and not enough chocolate. Every bite of this one has a good amount of chocolate in it, which makes it taste better, but still have some substance to it like other trail mixes. Trail mix in general is not cheap (similar to one of my other favorite snacks - beef jerky), but the price on this one is usually reasonable for a large tub.
Not sure if there are Target stores where you live, but if so, try picking up some of this Archer Farm’s Monster trail mix, assuming you like nuts and chocolate!
What is your go-to snack?
Happy Friday my friends,
