August 31 Trail Mix Day

August 31 Trail Mix Day Observed annually, honors the mix that was developed as a healthy snack to be taken along on hikes.

Trail mix is a combination of dried fruit, grains, nuts, and sometimes chocolate, developed as a snack food to be taken along on hikes. Trail mix is considered an ideal snack food for hikes, because it is lightweight, easy to store, and nutritious, providing a quick energy boost from the carbohydrates in the dried fruit or granola, and sustained energy from fats in nuts.
You can make your own trail mix using your favorite ingredients. Many varieties of trail mix are available at your favorite grocery or convenience store.
