About this episode

Snacks, snacks, snacks. Who doesn’t love a snack?! This week, Meg and Kelly dig into a delicious conversation about their favorite snacks. Meg enlightens Kelly to growing up in an ingredients-only household, and Kelly reveals her microwave-less childhood. Then, they decide to form the Raisin Mafia! From crunchy to creamy, salty to sweet, low-cook to no-cook, they’ve got all their favorites to share.

And if you are in the mood for spicy, this is the PERFECT time to become a Super Star Awesome! Earlier this month, Super Stars Live featured a Spicy Book Show & Tell and hilarity ensued. You can catch up with the video and audio replays PLUS get access to hundreds of hours of bonus material, an exclusive Facebook group, and the texting number to reach out to the Sorta Awesome team! It’s a GREAT day to become a Super Star!
