Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Nut Granola Bars, Almond, 6-Count Boxes (Pack of 12) Review

I really enjoy the flavor and texture of these candybars, but don't be fooled by the natural look of the product and packaging. These are all "treat" and no "snack". Nature Valley is blurring the lines between the once distinct categories of granola bars and candy bars. This product certainly falls into the latter category, but appears to be marketing itself into the first.

Ingredients include a host of flavor enhancers and sweeteners that "healthy snack bar" types might be trying to avoid.

We have 22g Carbs, 7g Fat, 3g Protien and 170mg of Sodium
"Glycemic Spike" and "Water Retention" come to mind...

Check out these ingredients:

High Maltose Corn Syrup is the second ingredient, sugar is the 4th, High fructose corn syrup is the 5th. Also in there is wheat flakes, fructose, honey, milk products and soy lecithin. As for the good stuff, we have almonds as the first ingredient, rolled oats as the third, crisp rice as the 6th. There are other ingredients as well, surely listed in the product description here on Amazon.

One peave regarding the product packaging which states that the bar is "dipped in almond butter coating". Well, I eat almond butter (instead of peanut butter). The "coating" they refer to is more of a white "sugary milk product coating" with a little almond mixed in. It is nothing like "almond butter".

Overall, this bar packs the salty sweet flavor punch it boasts and the texture is fun. Just beware (or be aware) of all those "other" ingredients when you buy.

I have searched high and low for anything that would satisfy my sweet tooth and chocolate cravings without a ton of fat and sugar.Well I am now addicted to these.I LOVE THEM.I have two a day at least - bad days 3 - very satisfying - feel full afterwards.With a glass of skim milk is a great snack.Dropped all candy snacks and other bars - having just these for my snacks - and I've lost 22 lbs - and I do not exercise.I couldn't be happier.If you have chocolate cravings or crave snacks - even late at night - you have got to try these.This is my only review ever - only time I felt so strong about something that I took the time to do it.Hope you all enjoy as much as I do.I have them delivered monthly from Amazon automatically for a better price - with free shipping.
