We just received boxes of the new Soft-Baked Granola Bars from Kashi. I don’t accept a lot of the food offered to me because I don’t feed my family shit. However, I love Kashi as a company and actually purchase a lot of their stuff regularly so I was happy to try these out. They’re available in two flavours – ripe strawberry and blackberry. They’re made with all-natural ingredients and feature a lightly sweetened 7 whole grain outer layer, soft-baked around a real fruit filling. They must be good because when I stuck one in Primo’s lunch kit he told me he found a chocolate bar in there for a snack!

Both flavours taste great and have decent nutritional information for a processed snack:

• 10 g whole grain and 2 g fibre per bar
• Low sodium
• Free of artificial ingredients
• Free of Trans fats

I’ll still make my own granola bars because nothing beats that, but in a pinch these will do just fine.
