Ingredients Method Notes

Ingredients
  

  • 1 large bag Smartfood White Cheddar Popcorn
  • 1 medium bag Cheetos Flamin Hot
  • 1 medium bag Ruffles Cheddar Sour Cream Potato Chips
  • 1 medium bag Lay's Salt & Vinegar Flavored Potato Chips
  • 2 boxes CRUNCH 'N MUNCH Caramel Popcorn with Peanuts

Method
 

  1. Grab the Biggest Bowl You Own: You need plenty of room to toss everything without sending chips flying across the living room floor.
  2. Layer the Bases: Pour in the Smartfood White Cheddar Popcorn and the CRUNCH 'N Munch Caramel Popcorn with Peanuts. Give them a gentle mix so the peanuts and caramel clusters spread out.
  3. Crush the Chips: Give the bags of Ruffles Cheddar Sour Cream Potato Chips and Lay's Salt & Vinegar Potato Chips a gentle squeeze to break them into smaller pieces. You want good chunks, not dust. Dump them into the bowl.
  4. Bring the Heat: Pour in the bag of Cheetos Flamin Hot.
  5. Toss and Serve: Use your hands or a big spoon to gently fold all the snacks together. Hand out the napkins and press play on the movie.

Notes

  • The "Crunch" Factor: Do not turn the chips into dust. Keep the pieces large enough to grab with your fingers.
  • Mixing Tip: If your bowl has a lid, put it on and give it a gentle shake to mix everything. If not, use your hands to reach to the bottom and pull the ingredients up to the top.
  • Avoid Humidity: This snack does not love hot or humid days. If it's a muggy day, try to eat it quickly so the chips stay nice and crisp!
  • Portion Control: Since this bowl is very big, put some out in smaller individual snack bowls to help keep portions in check for the kids.
