If you're looking for a "healthified" version of puppy chow or muddy buddies or whatever you want to call it, look elsewhere. In fact, proportionately, it is higher in everything due to the addition of the candy corn and peanuts. The only reason this may appear to be "healthified" is because they cut the serving size in half. Now, if you're looking for the original recipe, take out the candy corn and peanuts and enjoy away as it is the same delicious recipe!
