Snack Review: Breyers Triple Chocolate Ice Cream

While visiting my Mom the other day, we discovered that we had the house to ourselves, so we brought out the Breyers ice cream. My Mom is a big fan of Breyers, so she always has some various flavor packed away in her freezer. This time it was Breyers Triple Chocolate All Natural Ice Cream.

I’m all for chocolate, but sometimes things can be a little too chocolaty, so I was hesitant to try it, figuring all three flavors combined would give my taste buds spasms. The three flavors in this ice cream carton were: white chocolate, dark chocolate and milk chocolate. I decided to try all of them separately before combining them.

I tried the white chocolate first: I noticed the taste of chocolate right away, but my Mom didn’t think so and said it tasted like plain vanilla. She is so wrong.

Snack Review: Golden Grahams Treats Chocolate Marshmallow

When I was a kid, golden Grahams was my favorite cereal. Whenever I saw that my Mom had taken a trip to the grocery store and gotten this delicious cereal, it made my day and all I could think about was having breakfast the next morning. Okay, so I had an unnatural obsession with Golden Grahams. But they were good!

So when I saw that a new Golden Grahams bar had come out, I was excited, but quickly became skeptical. I didn’t know how chocolate and marshmallows would be with my favorite cereal. I didn’t want these other ingredients to change my mind about one of my best childhood memories!

Snack Review: Chex Mix Chocolate Peanut Butter

Everyone loves Chex Mix, right? It’s been around forever, what’s not to love about it? Especially that Chex Mix muddy buddies recipe you can make from the box… whoever invented that was a genius. Well, Chex Mix can only get better when you add chocolate and peanut butter to it.

I recently tried out Chex Mix Chocolate Peanut Butter. Well, I’ve tried it out more than once in the past few days. It’s found in grocery and convenience stores because I’ve always seen them around, but never picked one up.

When I first opened the bag, I spread out everything on my table. There was an assortment of chocolate- and peanut butter-covered Chex Mix, pretzels, candies, and nuts.

Now, I could have eaten each of these items separately, which I did at first, but I wanted to see how it tasted all mixed together in my mouth.

Snack Review: Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain Fruit & Nut Bars

I’m usually not a big fan of anything with fruits and nuts in it, but I thought I’d give these Kellogg’s Nutri-Grain Fruit & Nut bars a try since I don’t seem to be that healthy of an eater.

These come in two different flavors - Berry & Almond and Cranberry, Raisin & Peanut.

At first, I thought this bar would be hard and probably crack one of my teeth when I bit into it. But that was not the case because it is a soft, flexible bar. I say flexible because I always have fun bending the bars back and forth while they are still in their package.

I first tried the Berry & Almond bar because it looked slightly more appealing to me than the other. (Remember, I dislike fruit and nuts.) When I opened it, the bar was so soft it started bending on its own and almost fell apart. The bar is actually fun to look at: it’s covered in what look like cranberries, oats, crispy rice, bran cereal and almonds.

Snack Review: Luna Bar Nutz Over Chocolate

I decided to try out a Luna Bar because I’ve heard so many people talking about them. They advertise these bars as “The Whole Nutrition Bar for Women,” and I’m a woman, so I thought I’d give it a try.

The bar that I tried was Luna: Nutz Over Chocolate.

The packaging is pretty. It shows three women in various exercise or yoga poses while standing behind a light blue background of the moon. But enough with the looks, let’s get into the product.
