From cupcakes to pies to donuts, food trends shift as quickly as summer fashions, but the simple enjoyment of outdoor picnicking never goes out of style. Kraft Foods help my family energize our picnics with sure-to-please treats, from the cutting edge to the classic and reliable.

When we head to the beach or the park, we have a lot of basics:

CRACKER BARREL
Cracker Barrel is an award winning cheddar cheese that is full of flavor and the perfect way to guarantee that unexpected and expected visitors feel like they can be themselves.

WHEAT THINS
Usually with our cheese, we have Wheat Thins squares, but the Crunch Stix are fun and new and are exploding with flavor. This delicious, crunchy snack with baked-in flavors and 11 grams of tasty whole grain per serving comes in a pop open, snack-friendly container.

If we’re staying at the beach into the evening, a bonfire and s’mores are in order and with the NEW! JET-PUFFED STACKERMALLOWS you can help little hands get a grip of this delicious treat.  The stackermallows are thin, rectangle-shaped marshmallows that are perfectly sized to fit a graham cracker for year-round s’mores! Make microwaveable s’mores in seconds or wrap in foil and grill for the perfect tailgating treat! 

TEDDY GRAHAMS
Our family favorite is the chocolate Teddys, these small edible bears are fun to eat.

JELL-O TEMPTATIONS
More Indulgence. Less Guilt. At 150 calories or less, JELL-O TEMPTATIONS is the adult-only treat with taste that’s too indulgent to share with the kids. A must-try, your mouth and tummy will thank you!


KOOL-AID Singles
Shake things up anywhere with your favorite Kool-Aid Singles flavors and a 16.9 oz water bottle. It’s quick to make and quick to make your kids smile. My 12 year old loves these for school and for dance too, perfect for on the go!

COUNTRY TIME
Get the grill ready and break out the sunscreen. And welcome back summer with a refreshing glass of Country Time Lemonade!  This drink brings me back to my childhood, the taste has never changed either
