The Munch Around the Market Scavenger Hunt

Nibble your way through Reading Terminal Market

…as you tackle tricky questions while sampling the best foods in Reading Terminal Market. Foodies will feast on artisanal chocolates, sinful cheesecakes, Amish baked goods, soft pretzels, cappuccino, cupcakes, roast pork, and more. Plus you’ll also drop into the Convention Center for a look at Reading Terminal’s glory days as a train station.

On teams, you’ll follow fascinating clues to explore the market and find answers to tricky, amusing questions. Plus you’ll also have Snack Attacks, where you’ll have to take creative photos of the team sampling sinful foods.

On this food challenge, you’ll discover…

  • Ice cream once made with the help of mules
  • Chocolates that might remind you of Gray’s Anatomy, featured on Bizarre Foods
  • Philbert, the pig that’s a cash cow, with a telltale tail
