Aries are fire signs through and through, so of course they’re going to choose a snack that has some kick. For that reason, Gerdes believes Red Hots or Fireballs will keep the cardinal sign content as they watch the landscape change around them.

As a spring zodiac sign, Taureans are drawn to fruit-based snacks that are reminiscent of their season, particularly those in the “cookie or cake category,” Gerdes shares. Because of this, the astrologer posits that the earth sign will likely pack some “strawberry shortcake treats or raspberry thumbprint cookies” before hitting the road.

Mystery-flavored snacks will always catch a Gemini’s eye, but because those can be hard to come by, the air sign will settle for “something with a variety of tastes found in one pack, like Skittles or trail mix,” per Gerdes.

If you’re planning a road trip with a Cancer, be prepared for them to ask if you want a bite of their treat more times than you can count. That’s because as the nurturers of the zodiac, Cancers want everyone to be taken care of. As a result, the water sign will always choose a snack that has enough to go around for everyone. “To ensure everyone is content, they're likely to choose something sweet and salty,” says Gerdes. Sounds like a chocolate-covered pretzel may be in your future — or two, or three.

Leos like to live in the now, which is why their go-to road trip snack may vary. Per Gerdes, it all depends on what they’re craving at the moment, though fast food or soft pretzels are definite possibilities.

Virgos are all about perfection, which means they need a snack that’ll make as little mess as possible. In that case, mini crackers like Ritz or Cheez-Itz should suffice, but don’t be surprised if they inspect their seat for crumbs later.

Let’s face it: tensions can get pretty high during a long car ride. But Libras want nothing more than to be surrounded by peace and harmony, which is why you can count on the air sign to pack a snack that everyone can enjoy. And because Libra is ruled by Venus, Gerdes shares the cardinal sign is likely to gravitate to something “more sugary,” like candy.

Before they can even think about snacking, Scorpios need their daily cup of coffee. Once they have some caffeine in their systems, “they're likely to find a snack that others might find polarizing, like licorice or sour straws,” Gerdes explains.

Sagittarians are always up for an adventure, which means they take their road trips — and their road trip snacks — very seriously. “For this thrill-seeker, their snack of choice has a fun component to it, like a chocolate candy with something in the center to discover or a treat they've never seen,” says Gerdes.

Because Sagittarians are always on the go, they need something that’ll help keep their energy levels up as well. Don’t be surprised if the fire sign pairs its fun snack with a more substantial bite, like a burger or a hot dog.

When it comes to road trips, you can expect to find a Capricorn behind the wheel almost every time. For that reason, the earth sign requires a bite that doesn’t get in the way of navigating the car, like a granola or protein bar. With these treats, they can grip onto their snack without letting go of the wheel, and their hands won’t get all sticky or greasy, either.

As the humanitarians of the zodiac, Aquarians are always going to opt for a treat that has a “philanthropic component” like Girl Scout Cookies or gravitate towards a brand that donates its proceeds to a good cause, per Gerdes.

Pisces are known for being real sweethearts, so it’s only right the water sign chooses a snack as sweet as they are, like Swedish Fish or Sour Patch Kids, per Gerdes. Maybe Pisces and Libra can trade their candies for even more sugary goodness.
