No snack screams gameday like spicy buffalo wings. That’s why we were delighted to discover this zingy riff on the classic, Brazen Buffalo Wing almonds. Seasoned with zesty buffalo hot sauce, California garlic, and celery salt, one bag will hardly even make it to halftime.
Not coincidentally, health was the reason Kristy Mangia first founded Giddy Up Nuts. Driving home from the Californian ski resort Mammoth Mountain, she stopped at a roadside market and got frustrated that she couldn’t find any snacks in the aisles that weren’t sugary, fatty, or highly processed. She was craving something that would make her feel good and still be delicious. Turns out she’s not the only one. Starting in local farmers markets, her stalls quickly became a favorite stop of the market-goers, known for the all-natural ingredients and fun flavor combinations. Buffalo wings and chips are tasty, but Giddy Up Nuts are tasty and healthy. That’s a win in our playbook.
Tip of the tongue:
Sure, you can use these as a game day snack, served solo, but think of the other possibilities. Try them in a crisp green salad with bleu cheese dressing, or add a few as a zesty element to your standard cheeseboard. They’d also pair well with a spicy bloody Mary… for post-gameday remedies.
