I wish that Kellogg's would return to the previous style of these, the Strawberry Filled Mini Wheats, the raisin filled and the blueberry filled were much better than these frosted varieties.

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

Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Nut Granola Bars, Almond, 6-Count Boxes
Average Reviews:

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.

Thai Tamarind Candy - 3.5 oz box Review

I love this stuff! Sweet at first, then sour. You have to like sour stuff. This is a dried fruit coated in sugar. It's naturally tart and delicious.

If you have an acquired taste for tamarind, this is a great snack. Tamarind candy tends to lose flavor and freshness within a few months after shipment, and this is a new arrival so buy now--quality is great.

I was happy to see "single-serve" dried cherries.When they arrived, not so happy to notice they had added sugar.Surely cherries have enough natural sugar that adding more is unnecessary?And then, they were exceedingly sweet, and just "sugar" flavored, not really cherryish at all.I could only choke down 5 or 6 (while drinking lots of water to eliminate the sugariness) at one time.Not a repeat buy.

Barbara's Bakery Hole 'n Oats, Fruit Juice Sweetened Cereal, 8.0-Ounce Box (Pack of 6) Review

I always liked Cheerios, but have not eaten it for years and years since they put too much junk in them with lots of iron which is not such a good idea for males. Every other oat cereal I tried tasted like hay or worse. Well the search is over. This cereal has great flavor and none of the unnecessary additives. It is crunchy or, if you prefer less crunch, use warm milk and they become chewey, not soggy. You can eat all you want without worrying about loading up on junk. My wife and I eat it all the time. I order it by the case from Amazon and you cannot beat the price. If you like oat cereals, this is it.
