What You Should Know

You'd grab this 365 Treasure Hunt Trail Mix from the snack aisle or bulk-style grab bins at Whole Foods for road trips, kids' lunches, or an easy party bowl. It reads nostalgic and indulgent — candy-coated chocolate gems, chewy raisins, and roasted peanuts give a mix of crunchy, sweet, and chewy textures. The ingredient list (colored shells, food glazes, maltodextrins, emulsifiers and refined sugars/oils) and the candy-coated texture reveal industrial processes and formulations typical of ultra-processed snack mixes.
