SSI RATING (SNACK SATISFACTION INDEX - 1-10): 6.5

UPSIDE:

It's nutritious, it's somewhat filling. It tastes alright. It was FREE!

DOWNSIDE:

It's not the type of snack you'll crave more of.

1ST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Strawberry preserve filling
Water
Sugar
Glycerin

LAST 4 INGREDIENTS:

Riboflavin
Vitamin A palmitate
Thiamin hydrochloride
Folic acid

PACKAGING:

Clean, healthy. It makes you want to take a dump, you can feel the bran working its way through your intestines.

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

When it's free, yes. When they're not giving them out at the World Trade Center (NYC), no, unless it is the last food available and you are really hungry.

HOW CAN THE PRODUCT BE IMPROVED:

It's sad when a product pretends to be nutritious and it isn't. I mean, look at the first 4 ingredients. Flour is like the 98th ingredient. Also, you've got to love the "Naturally low fat" burst on the package. Yeah, and I'm naturally angry when you have mislead me!
