From TikTok to the table, snackleboxes are like everywhere, and we're totally obsessed. They're an easy way to elevate our snacking game, and frankly their layouts let us put our Pinterest skills to work. Best part though? Snackleboxes aren’t just a social media trend. They’re a great way to toss together an array of foods for road trip snacks, a busy day on the go with the kids, movie nights, sideline snacks, and more. (Personally I love packing these for after hiking with my teens!)
First, what are snackle boxes?
Pretty much exactly what they sound like - a small bento box or tackle box-style organizer full of a variety of snacks. Their separate compartments make them easy to customize (and clean!), the portion sizes are small so you're not filling up on a whole bag of chips in one sitting, and the various compartments allow wet and dry foods from touching each other because #IYKYK especially with kids.
