Here's What You Should Know About Buc-Ee's Iconic 'Beaver Nuggets'
By Angel Albring
It started in Texas, but in the last few years, more Buc-ee's have been popping up further east, with locations in Alabama, Florida, Georgia, and one coming soon to Louisiana. Not only can you fill-up the gas tank, but you can snag some snacks and even fresh foods, like pastries, sandwiches, and the fan-favorite Buc-ee's Beaver Nuggets.
This caramel-coated corn-puff snack food is a type of popcorn that comes in various flavors, including the initial lineup of original, cheddar cheese, and jalapeno. Buc-ee's has also started selling spicy, sea salt caramel, and chocolate-dipped nuggets.
One thing to note about Buc-ee's Beaver Nuggets is that the original nuggets are 130 calories per ounce and come in 13-ounce bags, which means a full bag is 1,690 calories. If you’re interested and don’t live near a location, you can enjoy some of their signature snacks by ordering them on Amazon or Texas Snax.
