You'll love the Snack Sticks

2008-09-22T07:19:00.000-07:00

At four for a dollar, they are hard to beat. They are tasty and easy to carry around for an emergency protein boost. We make them right here in Thurmont and they come in a variety of flavors. We usually sell out of the plain and the sweet pretty fast, so come by on Thursdays if you want your choice of flavors. Sometimes it's just hard to keep up with the demand. If you like your snack sticks full of flavor and a little spicy, try the beer sticks. There's really not any beer in them. We just call them beer sticks because they go great with beer. But, even you teatotalers can enjoy them because they go great with crackers, cheese, chips and even by themselves. Come on by and pick up a bunch of our famous snack sticks.
