Location: Free promotion

OFFICIAL NAME OF SNACK:
Nutri-Grain TWISTS: Strawberries & Creme

PRICE: $.00 (promotion)

WEIGHT: 1.3 oz.

DESCRIPTION OF SNACK: Soft, slightly crumby (and I mean that in the nicest way) twisty breakfast bar with separate divisions of strawberry filling and creme filling.

 

SNACK LOOKS LIKE: Coiled (but delicious) fiber optics.

SSI RATING (SNACK SATISFACTION INDEX - 1-10): 7.5

UPSIDE:

A real nice breakfast snack that does its job in low-fat style. While it fills you up nicely, it doesn't make you feel like you should take a shower afterwards like a box of Krispie Kremes might do. In other words, it's just the right amount of snacky goodness for a morning snack. Other flavors include blueberry and, well, that's all I know right now.

DOWNSIDE:

Might not "hit the spot" quite as well if eaten as an afternoon snack. I'm guessing it doesn't travel well, either, as it was nice and soft. So if you're thinking of sticking one in your backpack to enjoy while Eurorailing through France, you might want to choose something more durable, instead. Crepes, for instance.

1ST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Strawberry preserve filling
Water
Sugar
Glycerin

LAST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Riboflavin
Vitamin A palmitate
Thiamin hydrochloride
Folic acid

PACKAGING:

Simple, clear, and nice.

DO I RECOMMEND YOU TRY THIS YOURSELF? (YES/NO - EXPLAIN):

You bet.

HOW CAN THE PRODUCT BE IMPROVED:

As a breakfast snack, it's near perfect. How about a chocolate and peanut butter-filled twist for afternoon snacking?
