This Boy Scout Snack Mix, is a great snack for active boys, it’s easy to make. If fact, they can easily make it themselves.
Boy Scout Snack Mix is full of crunchy, crispy crackers and chips, hearty nuts and lots of spice.
Make your own snack mix and save money. Also, it’s highly adaptable to your taste. If you don’t like pretzels, add more cheese crackers or Chex cereal. I used Bugels, cheese crackers, peanut, almonds and more of my favorites.

Can another oil be used besides popcorn oil?
Paula says
Yes, any oil but it won’t be quite as flavorful
Kandy says
I apologize for being dense, lol, but when you say popcorn oil are you meaning a buttery type oil or canola, corn, safflower? I make marinated pretzels and use canola oil. This sounds like a perfect snack mix!
Paula says
Yes, usually if you cannot find popcorn oil with the other oil on the baking isle of the store, it will be on the popcorn isle. It’s more ‘buttery’ than other oils
