You'll be rewarded with salty, savory goodness in every single handful.
Frito-Lay Classic Snack Mix Variety Pack, 42 Count
This group of snack bags from Frito-Lay is called classic for a reason: every single item included is a munchy fave all by themselves, but together they prove an embarrassment of riches. This 42-count multipack contains 5 snack bags of Ruffles Original, 4 snack bags of Lays Classic, 4 snack bags of Smartfood popcorn, 7 snack bags of Cheetos, 4 snack bags of Funyuns, 4 snack bags of Fritos, 6 snack bags of Doritos Cool Ranch, and 7 snack bags of Doritos Nacho Cheese.

Toasteds Variety Pack Crackers, 12 oz.
If you're planning a stellar charcuterie board—and we really suggest you do!—this variety pack of Toasteds Artisan Collection crackers will go with a whole variety of cheese-and-meats options. Included in the pack are Toasteds Buttercrisp, Toasteds Harvest Wheat, and Toasteds Rosemary & Olive Oil. Grab a couple cheeses, a stick of salami, some prosciutto and a smattering of veggies, fruits, and jams, and you've got yourself a cheer-worthy spread!
Pretzilla Soft Pretzel Bites, 12.3 oz.
Bring home the fun of a ballgame big pretzel with these pretzel bites from Pretzilla, which are pre-cooked and ready to heat. Every bite is made with soft pretzel bread with a chewy outside and plush, airy, lightly sweet inside. Bake and serve with a couple of dipping sauces (like the below queso, some mustard, and even a sweet option like Nutella) and you have an easy app that's sure to please.
Tostitos Salsa Medium Salsa Con Queso Jar, 15 oz.
This classic salsa con queso from Tostitos is the ideal app-starter, perfect for so many dishes. Throw it into a multi-layer Mexican dip, serve solo (cold or hot) with chips or the above pretzel bites, mix with buffalo sauce and shredded chicken for a delish buffalo dip—the possibilities are truly endless. Plus, the medium spice level is definitely manageable by even the most spice-averse among us, though does add a pleasant little kick to the proceedings.
