Here are some interesting new products found on store shelves by your fellow readers. If you’ve tried any of them, share your thoughts in the comments.
(Spotted by Sarah R at Trader Joe’s.)
If you’re out shopping and see new products, snap a picture of them, and send them in via an email ([email protected]) with where you found them and “Spotted” in the subject line. Also, if you want to send in photos and are wondering if we’ve already covered something or if they’re new, don’t worry about it. Let us worry about it.
It looks like Trader Joe’s is trying to give Cliff Kids Bars their own spin on it. Those are really good though, so I may have to try the Trader Joe’s version.
Trader Joe’s Organic Chocolate Chip Baked Whole Grain Bar looks exactly like Great Value Chocolate Chip Whole Grain Baked Bars, down to the packaging color, the bar texture & the chocolate drizzle. Probably made in the same factory & they just slap it with different store labels.
It also resembles Clif Kids bars. I could see it being off label for that too.
These launched a little while ago and aside from the poor nutrition stats, the reviews aren’t very good. Feel free to give them a try if it’s your kind of thing and let us know what you think.
Not everything you eat needs to be “healthy.” It’s one thing if they don’t taste good, but you don’t need to mourn the “poor nutrition stats.”
I agree that not everything has to be healthy but much of the time (not always) people are looking for healthy attributes to bars like these which is why they included this notation in their reviews.
Agreed! If they taste good what the heck.
Jane is going to be all over those Yogurt Flavored Coated Almonds
