Planters Big Nut Bars, Roasted Triple Nut, 5-Count Bars (Pack of 10) Review

I discovered Planters Big Nut Bars - the Triple Nut variety - about two years ago. When they became hard to find at my local supermarket, I started ordering them by the case from Amazon. Now, Amazon only offers them through a third-party seller and the cost to have a case delivered has jumped from around $30.00 (give or take) to more than $80.00. I sent an email to Planters asking about their distribution problems, but never received a reply. Has anyone else had trouble finding these bars at a reasonable price? If you're still finding them - where? Needless to say, I like these bars very much.

If you like peanuts, you'll absolutely love this bar! It's full, I mean really full of peanuts. Plus, they taste crisp and fresh, not at all soft or soggy the way they do in some peanut bars.
The taste of the bar is sweet, but not too sweet with a pleasing balance between the nut taste and the sweetener. In addition, the bar is a generous size.
We'd buy them again!

Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Nut Granola Bars, Peanut, 6-Count Boxes (Pack of 12) Review

This bar gets smaller and smaller and smaller; it's almost a joke.
It would be interesting to see the OZ per bar when they first marketed compared to now. They do a great job of hiding the product size and making it seem insignificant.
Strategy: Make a great tasting bar. Get people loyal with special pricing on the boxes of bars in the grocery stores. Then, shrink the size, one step at a time, while keeping price the same. Most won't notice. We certainly did.
Very disappointed, will not buy this bar or any other Nature Valley products in the future due to this deception.

EnviroKidz Organic Lemur Peanut Choco Drizzle Crispy Rice Bar, 6-Count Bars (Pack of 6) Review

We get these snack bars so that my kids, who have gluten and casein allergies, can have something to put in their lunch. But now that we have the 6 pack, there are so many around the house, that even I was able to try them. And unlike some gluten-free foods, these are really palatable. Especially good with a slathering of peanut butter on top, if your child isn't allergic to nut products, that is. We took a load with us on vacation to Wisconsin Dells, and they proved a delicious, energy-filled breakfast before we hit the waterparks. And on days when my daughter is late getting ready for school, she can just grab a bar for breakfast as I drive her in the car. In short - quick, convenient, delicious, and gluten-casein free. Perfect for a family with allergies.

EnviroKidz organic lemur peanut choco drizzle crispy rice bars are truly delicious gluten-free crispy rice bars enhanced with peanut choco drizzle--enjoy the yummy taste of peanut and chocolate in every bite. Be sure, you will not have to lower your expectations even if you are eating a gluten-free, wheat-free snack bar. You do not have to settle for ordinary or tasteless gluten-free bars when Nature's Path offers so much more--a pinch of this, a dash of that, but never anything artificial. This product contains no artificial additives, preservatives, or colors. Moreover, the USDA organic certification on this product means that the ingredients are grown without synthetic herbicides, pesticides, and nasty chemicals.It is a sacrifice-free way of enjoying a healthy delicious snack.

Whole Grain Goodness for EveryoneThe specialty of Nature's Path is, and has always been, everything "whole grain". If you decide to go "gluten free" then there is no healthier option than organic gluten free--products that are not only gluten free but also free of other things that can compromise health. Add to that, Non-GMO Project verified for an extra assurance when it comes to food safety.

Nature's Path uses gluten-free grains such as buckwheat, quinoa, millet, sorghum, amaranth, brown rice, flax, teff, and whole grain corn.

Amaranth: Long considered a native crop in Peru, amaranth was a major food crop of the ancient Aztecs and played a part in their religious practices as well. Amaranth is gluten free, high in protein, iron, magnesium, phosphorus, and potassium. It is the only grain that also contains vitamin C.

Brown Rice: Naturally gluten free, whole-grain rice is usually brown but can also be black, purple, or even red. It is one of the most easily digested grains and though it is lower in fiber, it is still rich in many other nutrients.

Buckwheat: It is not technically a grain at all and not any kind of wheat, but rather, a cousin of rhubarb! It is the only grain to have high levels of an antioxidant called rutin and of course, it is gluten free too.

Whole Grain Corn: While it's true that corn may be familiar, don't overlook it when it comes to antioxidants. Corn has the highest levels of antioxidants of any grain or vegetable!

Quinoa: It is another "grain" that is not quite a grain. Quinoa is actually a relative of Swiss chard and beets. This gluten free grain was a favorite of the Incas. It comes from South America and is a small, light colored grain that looks a bit like sesame seeds. It is a complete protein, delivering all the essential amino acids our bodies need.

Sorghum: This hearty gluten free grain from Africa thrives where other grains would wither and die. It can be eaten like popcorn, cooked into porridge, or made into flour. It is very popular with people who have gluten issues.

Teff: This is a tiny grain that comes from Africa--it is 1/150th the size of a wheat kernel. The fact that "teff" comes from the word "teffa" meaning "lost" starts to make sense. Teff has a sweet, molasses-like taste and can be used for baked goods, porridge, or "teff polenta". It is high in iron and calcium.
About Nature's PathFor over 25 years, Nature's Path has been mastering the art of whole grain baking with cereals, snacks, and waffles that are loaded with whole grain nutrition and wholesome goodness. They bake cereals with basic gluten containing grains used in typical manufacturing such as barley, rye, and oats. Out of the 128 innovative products that Nature's Path makes twenty percent are certified gluten free--and many of these products are also whole grain.

Organic is HealthierOrganic makes much less impact on the Earth as no synthetic pesticides fertilizers or antibiotics are used and no chemicals are added to the food afterwards. It means less pollution in your world and in your bowl. Organic goes further towards giving you what nature intended--clean, pure, and real food.

Nature's Path has made America's favorite gluten-free cereals for longer than anyone else has. Nobody offers a wider range of gluten free breakfast options--they know what makes a great tasting breakfast. You can make Nature's Path your daily breakfast partner today!

What is in the boxThis is sold in a pack of six 6-count bars (total 36 bars).

Nature Valley Roasted Nut Crunch Granola Bars, Peanut Crunch, 6-Count Boxes (Pack of 6) Review

Nature Valley Roasted Nut Crunch Granola Bars, Peanut Crunch, 6-Count Boxes (Pack of 6)
Average Reviews:

I recently tried both the Peanut and Almond varieties of the Nature Valley Roasted Nut Crunch. These bars are amazing! Imagine the flavor and crunch of brittle, but with just enough of the syrup to hold the nuts together. Also the nuts are a little salty, so the contrast is nice. This bar is all nuts. With just 7 and 6 grams of sugar respectively per bar, the 7 grams of protein and 2g of fiber are really attractive.
My daughter likes these as a snack before swimming because they give her an energy boost. I like the fact that they are more nutritionally balanced than most snack foods. They tend to crumble when you eat them, so eating them in bar form can be a challenge. I break them before I open the package, and pop the pieces in my mouth. Either way, they make a great snack.

Planters-Nuts On the Go Snack Packs, 24/2 oz Variety Packs Review

Planters-Nuts On the Go Snack Packs, 24/2 oz Variety Packs
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
IN A NUTSHELL: EACH PACKAGE CONTAINED 2 OZ. OF FRESH PEANUTS OR CASHEWS
These 2 oz. packages are filled with fresh nuts with nothing but salt added [& peanut oil or cottonseed oil]. As snack foods go, this is a very healthy choice. Although expensive on an ounce for ounce basis, as portions of snack foods go, this is still a fair value and a relatively healthy choice. Bear in mind that about 75% of the 170 calories per ounce are from fat, but there are NO TRANS-FATTY ACIDS or CHOLESTEROL while there are some healthy mono-saturated oils.
My big complaint against many other snack-nut products is their lack of freshness, and in fact a rancid taste to the nuts which NEVER happened with these Planters nuts. In fact, each individual package has an expiration date clearly marked on the front of the package.
BOTTOM LINE: I PREFER THE LARGER JAR BECAUSE I EAT MORE THAN 2 OZ. AT A TIME
My preference is to get these peanuts and cashews in the larger jar and unsalted, but for the summer, the salt is okay and the freshness was consistent in every package.
