Food/Drink

Satisfy your snack-food cravings at the Herr's Foods factory, located just north of Baltimore in Pennsylvania. In 1946, James Herr bought a small potato chip company, and today the family business has grown to become one of the leaders in the snack food industry. The factory has a 15,000-square-foot visitors center, and visitors can watch a short film and take a one-hour guided tour for free. Learn how a tortilla chip gets its seasoning and how a pretzel turns brown. At the snack bar, be sure to test Herr's Old Bay potato chips—influenced by the area's crab industry.

Stop by Diwine Spirits—just north of the Woodholm Country Club in Pikesville—on Saturday afternoons from 1 to 6 p.m. for free wine tastings.
