Hi,

I have trouble finding cereal and granola bars/cereal bars we have already cut out the hydrogenated oils, and colors which doesn’t leave many to choose from, then on top of that my son has severe peanut/tree nut allergies so alot of times that eliminates alot of the organic or alternatives that would normally work. If you have any ideas that would be great!

Thanks so much, Teri

We got some samples of Kashi TLC cereal bars to try out a few weeks ago.  I can’t eat them because they have wheat in them, but I made my husband the official taste tester, and he loved them.

Well, he didn’t actually say he loved them.  It went more like this.

“How do you like the cereal bars?”

“They’re good.”

“Like really good?”

“Sure.”

“Like so good you’d like me to buy them on a regular basis?”

“Yeah.”

Trust me, from my husband, this is a glowing review.  :)

The breakfast bars come in Baked Apple Spice,  Graham Blackberry, and Ripe Strawberry.

The bars are whole grain, have 110 calories with 25 from fat.  And, they do not contain High Fructose Corn Syrup.

Thanks, Teri!

  1. Mmm, those sound good.

    Too bad I’ve nixed buying foods that come in individually packaging. They look soooo yummy, though!

  2. Thank you for doing this review. I avoid HFCS like the plague and it’s nice to be introduced to an option you didn’t realize was available.

  3. It would be so-o-o-o helpfull if you included the list of ingredients when you present the products. It would save us a lot of time ,since there are substittutes for HFCS that are just as bad or worse that companies unfortunately use. Thanks and God bless!

Tip of the Day

Reuse Gift Wrap

Did you have a family member who sat in the corner at a party or holiday event, carefully folding up wrapping paper for future use? Maybe it was a grandma or great aunt who lived through the Depression and learned to save anything that was usable, maybe it was just someone who was thrifty and knew how to pinch pennies. What ever the reason behind it, saving wrapping paper makes good green sense.
