Fruit Shapes Fruit Flavored Snacks, Scooby Doo, 10-Count Pouches (Pack of 10) Review

Fruit Shapes Fruit Flavored Snacks, Scooby Doo, 10-Count Pouches (Pack of 10)

I don't make a habit of eating gelatinous fruit snacks, particularly in the shape of brain-dead cartoon characters, but despite the traces of beeswax, these chews are actually quite tasty. I am pleased that they offer the US FDA recommended daily allowance of vitamin C, which I suspect would make parents favor these over other snacks containing a higher number of "empty calories."
I honestly didn't expect to like these very much, as I thought they would taste far too artificial. General Mills did an excellent job getting the flavors right. The orange flavor in the shape of Velma and the blueberry flavored Scooby are the most realistic flavors, though all are quite good. I wouldn't exactly call this health food, but these chews are great tasting and have essentially no fat, making them a good choice for a quick, light snack.

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

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.
