Here are some quick reviews of new snack bars we’re too lazy to write full reviews for:<\/i><\/p>\n

\"Kellogg's<\/a><\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain Strawberry Parfait Fruit Crunch Granola Bars
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $2.79
\nSize:<\/b> 5 pack
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Target
\nRating:<\/b> 5 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Pretty much tastes like a regular granola bar. Crunchy. Has some fiber. It has dried cranberries. Thank goodness it’s not another Nutri-Grain cereal bar.
\nCons:<\/b> Super long name. Strawberry may be in its long name, but strawberry flavor was lacking. Made with partially hydrogenated oils. Not sure eating a pack is worth the 20% of my daily recommended intake of saturated fat.
\nOther reviews:<\/b> Crazy Food Dude<\/a><\/p>\n

\"Kellogg's<\/a><\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Kellogg’s Special K Berry Streusel Pastry Crisps
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $3.79
\nSize:<\/b> 5 pack
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Target
\nRating:<\/b> 7 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Flavor reminds me of a Pop-Tart. Nice berry flavor. 1000 times better tasting than regular Special K cereal. Crispy and light. Only 100 calories and two grams of fat per pack. Kind of makes me want to go on the Special K diet again.
\nCons:<\/b> Flavor reminds me of a Pop-Tart. Why isn’t it called Blackberry Streusel since that’s the only berry in it? Contains no fiber. Makes me yearn for a Pop-Tart. <\/p>\n

\"Nabisco<\/a><\/p>\n

Item:<\/b> Nabisco Honey Maid Strawberry Yogurt Creme Grahamfuls
\nPurchased Price:<\/b> $3.49
\nSize:<\/b> 8 pack
\nPurchased at:<\/b> Target
\nRating:<\/b> 7 out of 10
\nPros:<\/b> Nice slightly tart strawberry flavor. Creme does taste like strawberry yogurt. 100% whole grain. Good source of calcium. If you hate HFCS, you’ll be happy to hear these don’t contain any.
\nCons:<\/b> Yogurt in them is really yogurt powder. It’s a crumb-making machine. Contains the somewhat confusing “Natural Flavor with Other Natural Flavor.” If you’re a corn farmer, you might be sad they don’t contain HFCS.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
