There’s plenty to love about summer: Summer music, summer road trips, summer
movies. But to enjoy all those things, you have to sustain yourself with summer
snacks. But what are the best summer treats of all? We asked our listeners, and
we are revealing the results in a game all about summer snacks. (Today’s episode
originally ran as a bonus episode for NPR Plus supporters.)
