How We Picnic: WILD Picks for the Season
When the weather heats up, it’s the perfect time to keep your meals simple and snack-friendly—whether you’re headed to the beach, out on the boat, off to the park, or just hanging on the porch. A cooler full of high-quality snacks makes it easy to graze all day long without spending hours in the kitchen.
Here are a few of our favorite WILD picks for warm weather snacking:
100% Wagyu Beef Snack Sticks
One of our top sellers for good reason! Our Wagyu Beef Snack Sticks are fully cooked and ready to eat—no prep needed. Toss them in your bag or cooler and you’ve got protein-packed snacks that hold up great in the heat. Available in Original and Jalapeño Cheddar, they’re a must for road trips, beach days, and everything in between.
Smoked & Sliced Berkshire Bacon
Cook up a batch of Wilders Smoked & Sliced Bacon ahead of time and bring it along! Crisp bacon is great on its own or added to sandwiches, wraps, or even salads on the go. Pro tip: it pairs great with cheeses and summer tomatoes for an easy BLT moment at the beach or lake.
Charcuterie & Cheese Board on the Go
Build a simple picnic board with our Wagyu snack sticks, cheeses, crackers, nuts, pickles, and fresh fruit. It’s easy to pack, keeps well in the cooler, and is perfect for a laid-back afternoon snack spread.
Drinks & Refreshers
Don’t forget to pack your Wilders tumblers for ice-cold drinks in the heat! Pair your snacks with sparkling water, cold brew, lemonade, or whatever your crew loves most.
Why we love snacks in the summer
When the weather’s warm, nobody wants to be stuck inside cooking. We love stocking up on grab-and-go farm favorites that make it easy to pack the cooler, head out, and enjoy the day. From the beach to backyard hangs, these snacks help keep everyone fueled and happy.
