Skippy’s Origin Story
How one squirrel decided to take his nuts into his own hands and create the most legendary flavors his tiny brain could conjure.
Skippy was a squirrel with big dreams
He wasn’t satisfied with ordinary acorns—he wanted flavor combinations so good they’d make a chipmunk cry. So, with a twitch of his tail and a sack full of nuts, Skippy set off on his flavor adventure.
First stop? The Spice Tree. Its bark was said to hold every flavor imaginable. Skippy gnawed off a chunk, and—pow!—he tasted hints of cinnamon and nutmeg. “Perfect for my sweet nuts!” he squeaked, throwing it into his bag.
Next, he scampered to the Pepper Patch, dodging bees and angry birds, to add a dash of heat to his collection.
Finally, Skippy made his way to the Honey Falls, where he carefully dipped his precious nuts into a sugary, golden syrup, glistening in the sunlight.
When he returned, he laid out his flavored nut creations at the Great Tree of Gathering and called out “Behold my furry friends, come and taste what your tiny squirrel mouths have been missing!”
Noticing these enticing new smells, each of the squirrels began to gather around Skippy, carefully making their way up to try a bit of his nuts. One by one, the squirrels erupted in applause. His nuts were legendary.
From that day on, Skippy became the forest’s official “Captain of Nuts.” His creations were in such demand that he had to open a tiny nut shop, “Skippy’s Superb Nuts” with flavors for every occasion. And thus, Skippy’s dream of making the most delicious flavored nuts came true, one glorious bite at a time.
