FOOD ITEMS

These items are in the Camp Pack. Please check ingredients in case you would like to make substitutions at home.

Edible Fire: Heart-shaped Cheerios represent the starter; Red M&M chicklets represent a small fire; Veggie sticks represent kindling; pretzels represent small sticks; dried mandarins and dried cranberries represent a larger fire; and mini Twix and Kit Kats represent logs.

S'mores: Graham crackers, Dandies Vegan Marshmallows, and Hershey's Chocolate bar

NOTE: GRAHAM CRACKERS CRUSH EASILY. IF YOUR CRACKERS CRUMBLED, IT'S OK TO COME UP WITH A SCRAMBLED VERSION OF S'MORES. IT STILL TASTES GREAT!
