With summer coming to an end, everyone is gearing up to get back into routine, set up their home offices and stock up on their favourite snacks for learning at home. We asked the children of Spud employees what their all-time favourite snacks are; some that were common picks among all of them were Annies cheddar bunnies, Clif bars and Kiju juice!

Here are some of the children of Spud’s favourite snacks:

Director of Online Marketing and User Experience, Biance Byrne, says her kids cannot get enough of Annies and Les Amis mac and cheese. Her tip? Add Stahlbush frozen peas to the mac and cheese while it is still warm for some added vegetables in their food.

Paul McGreevy, Director of Food and Liquor says his kids cannot get enough of Clif bars, especially the chocolate chip ones and their assorted fruits and veggies!

Paul’s Tip? Paul’s family love to make “Greekza”. They take packs of cut naan bread, sliced cucumbers, peppers, tomatoes and feta cheese and a container of tzatziki and put it all together. Sometimes they add roasted chicken and have it for dinner!

Arndrea Scott, Direct of Retail Marketing and Creative Strategy, has pre-teens and said they eat a TON of cereal, any cereal is a must stocked item in their household! They also love cheese slices, fruit like banana’s, pretzels and good ol’ hummus!

Vancouver Purchasing Manager, Jeremy Brown said his kids can’t get enough of the Freeyumm double chocolate cookies. While Alberta Produce Manager, Kayla Buchanan said her kids love freezies all year long for a nice sweet cold treat on a hot day. A few of their other favourite snacks are, late july cheddar crackers, waffles and veggies and dip!
