Ants on a log

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ants on a log is a popular children's snack made by spreading peanut butter on celery and placing raisins on top.^[1] Common variations include:

• Aphids on a log (sunflower seeds)
• Gnats on a log (currants)^[2]
• Ants on vacation (without "ants," or no raisins)^[3]
• Cream cheese instead of peanut butter^{[citation needed]}
• Cheese Wiz instead of peanut butter^{[citation needed]}
• Using chocolate chips instead of raisins

The peanut butter version of ants on a log is recommended as a healthy "Smart Snack," comprising several food groups, by the McKinley Health Center at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign^[4].
