Here is the answer to today's Connections puzzle on Friday, 26th June:
- 🟨 Yellow: Crunchy Snack Item (Chip, Cracker, Nut, Pretzel)

Who's hungry after today's puzzle? Just me? Oh well, more salty snacks for me then! Today's puzzle was qute balanced. We had the classic wordplay with the purple group and some nature with varying degrees of difficulty.
The blue group was the hardest for me to solve this time. Dale, dell, gorge, and hollow aren't the most common words in day to day language. The only one I've ever really heard in conversation is gorge, and that didn't help me much!
