Review: Hip hip hooray! The kids are back in school and the beautiful Fall weather is finally here! For my family, however, Fall also means crazy overfilled schedules and lots of on-the-go snacking. Unfortunately, the snacks aren’t always healthy (you don’t want to know how many calories are in the typical candy bar) or inexpensive (have you surveyed the prices of vending machines snacks lately?).
Recently, however, we were given the opportunity to try Betty Crocker's Cereal Treats Bars in the Lucky Charms and Golden Grahams varieties. And what can I say, but it was love at first bite! We especially loved the Golden Grahams which tasted like portable smores, but with way less calories.
Check out these facts:
- Flavor varieties include the ever popular Golden Grahams® (130 calories) and new Lucky Charms® Treats (100 calories), loaded with popular favorites like chocolate and marshmallows.
- Cereal Treats Bars contain less than 140 calories per bar and are made with wholesome cereal, making them a snack option that you can feel good about giving your kids.
- TWO Box Tops for Education seals on each box of Cereal Treat Bars, making earning cash for your school doubly cool!
For more information head on over to the Betty Crocker website .
