National Snack Stick Day – September 23, 2022, history significance why we celebrate
We celebrate National Snack Stick Day every September 23. Make sure your pockets, bags, and desk drawers are loaded on this day! Snack sticks, which are typically made with beef or pork, harken back to the days when households made beef, pork, and game into sausages through smoking and aging. These snack sticks are full of family tradition, recipes passed down from generation to generation, top ingredients, and a lot of love.

National Snack Stick Day celebrated every September 23 was created by the Klement Sausage Company to commemorate on-the-go snacks for making on-the-go lives possible! These mini smoked sausage servings are a simple source of protein to take on a hike or pack in your gym bag, alleviate mid-morning hunger pains, and are readily shared after school, after work, or at any time.
Snack sticks cater to the entire family with a selection of tasty options. This tasty snack was designed for those on the go, with flavors ranging from sweet to spicy and everything in between.
Klement’s was founded in 1956 in Milwaukee, Wisconsin by three brothers, John, George, and Ron Klement, and it is still run under the family name today, employing over 350 employees in two plants. From a small sausage kitchen to one of the largest producers of quality, old-world sausage products, the firm has expanded.
Klement’s believes in handcrafted production, methodically crafting exquisite sausage products the way they used to be done in Old World butcher shops. A small-batch focus and “crafted with care mentality” contribute to a compelling appeal for those seeking artisan food experiences. Fresh sausages, cooked and smoked sausages, summer sausages, and snack sticks are all produced by the company.

WHY WE LOVE SNACKS
An important part of our diet
Snacking, despite its “bad reputation,” can be a vital element of your diet. They can give energy during the day or when you work out. A healthy snack in between meals can also help to curb your appetite and keep you from overeating at mealtime.
It beats cravings
Snacking throughout the day keeps you from being ravenously hungry. You’re more inclined to choose a healthier snack over whatever sugary pleasure is around. You’re also less prone to overeat at your main meals, resulting in calorie savings. A mid-morning and mid-afternoon snack can also help to boost your metabolism.
Snacking boosts brainpower
Snacking can assist in nourishing your body — and your brain, whether you need some additional help concentrating at work or want to feel awake in the afternoon. Having a snack keeps your energy levels up when you’re wishing for an afternoon snooze. Snacking on healthy foods provides your brain with the resources it requires to function optimally.
