Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Please be advised I did not expect these would taste as good as carrot cake, I just hoped for vaguely-reminiscent. Unfortunately, these taste almost identical to fig newtons. Even the apple-carrot filling is overpowered by the taste of figs. Which is not such a terrible thing-- they are pretty tasty that way, but the flavor name is rather deceiving.
That being said, these are a great alternative to other cereal-type bars. Yes, they are plenty sweet, but I have yet to find a brand that isn't. For comparison sake, we have also tried the Health Valley organic cereal bars, and the Earth's Best cereal bars. While the other aspects of the nutritional profile are comparable, the fiber content of these bars is slightly higher-- yea on that point (3 gr/bar). They appear to be slightly fortified, which I also find a plus.
For clarification, these bars are the same size as your standard Kashi cereal bar and about 75% the size of the standard Nutri-grain bar. They are NOT the kid-size of the Earth's Best bars (wasn't sure what to expect based on the previous reviewer's statements and 110 calories). The fruit filling is organic as well, which is really difficult to find, even amongst other "organic" brands (which I find laughable, since most of the fruits used usually top the list of dirty dozen-- apples, strawberries, etc). I applaud the organic fruit in particular with this product.
All in all, pretty okay, will eat the case without complaint (purchased primarily for toddler, but I'm sure I'll be eating my fair share too). Wish we could have tried them first, but could only locate them here on Amazon and Diapers dot com. Amazon is currently sold out of the Pumpkin Pie flavor, but I ordered a single box of them from Diapers dot come and maybe am hoping for a more pumpkin-esque taste with those.
I also recommend the Clif Kid Z Bar and Revolution Foods Grammy and Jammy Sammy lines if you are looking for organic cereal-bar granola-bar type snacks.
