Groundhog Day Snacks

Healthy food to eat on Groundhog Day

By Nicole Hickoff-Macaroni Kid Williamsport February 1, 2022

Hey, I could have provided a detailed recipe on how to make a cute, yummy snack.  But....this momma was busy with her kids and didn't have time.  LOL.  So what's the next best thing...healthy snacks, or somewhat, that even real groundhogs eat! 


Snack 1: Carrots and Ranch dressing!  

Yes, groundhogs obviously don't use Ranch dressing, but I bet if they could, they would! My little groundhogs like the crinkle-cut carrots.  


Snack 2: Celery and hummus!  

I love me some hummus and so do my kiddos! Cucumbers are great to dip in hummus too!


Snack 3: Celery and Peanut Butter!  

Make ants on a log and your little woodchucks will gobble this down!  Take peanut butter and spread it inside the celery.  Then, add some raisins to be your "ants". 


Snack 4: Mandarin Oranges and yogurt 

Cut up some mandarin oranges and give your kiddos some yogurt.  Make it even healthier with Greek Yogurt!


Snack 5: Gummy Worms!  

Obviously, groundhogs don't eat gummy worms, but they do eat grubs and other pests that can found in your garden.  Make a dirt cup with your gummy worms and your little groundhog can dig for the gummy worms!
