Today’s National Ants of a Log Day. Yes, “they” even have a national day for this. Growing up in Canada, I never heard of this snack until we moved to the States when I was 12 years old. By then, I wasn’t really into the concept, so it never caught on at my home.

According to Wikipedia, “Ants on a log is a snack made by spreading cream cheese or peanut butter on celery and placing raisins on top. The snack name was first used in the 1950s”.

Curious to see how it would taste, I spread Peter Pan Peanut Butter (don’t hate, I know it’s commercial and not organic) on some celery I had left then topped with the required raisins and…it was actually pretty tasty!

Did you grow up eating this popular snack? Do you like it?

Best,

Veronique
