I have always been a fan of snack bars, a simple grab-and-go treat. Chex Mix created a new cereal bar just for me for caramel lovers everywhere. Oh my stars, they are delicious! Like a candy bar, only way fewer calories.
My Blog Spark recently sent me 2 boxes to sample, and my kids I have thoroughly enjoyed them. I even packed a few in my carry-on bag on the way to BlogHer last week! Since they have less than 150 calories per bar and at least 8 grams of whole grain, I did not feel quite so guilty indulging in a sweet treat.

I love these Chex mix bars! I buy them when they are on sale..and clear out the shelf. Last week, I think, they were on sale at Vons, 4 boxes for $6. I had coupons ranging from 40 cents off to 75 cents off. I got a nice little stash now.
I like to eat them from the freezer..so if they have not been in the freezer, I don’t eat them. This is how I keep from eating an entire box in one afternoon 🙂

You know, lately I have been going back to an old classic … ice cream! In a pretty little bowl.
Trader Joes raspberry chocolate and almond mix.
One of my favorite bar snacks are FiberOne bars…I enjoy homemade granola bars…and I recently bought some GREAT nectarines that I enjoyed snacking on.

Crunchy Cheetos are my favorite. My healthy alternative is popcorn.

Popcorn!
My favorite snack this summer has been making smores in the oven. 2 graham squares, 1 large toasted marshmallow, and 1 piece of heavenly dark chocolate for 100 calories- a decadent treat! I also love these chex bars with a cup of coffee in the afternoon. (They are very weight watcher friendly.)
Thank you,

I love Ice cream!
My favorite candy bar is Twix. When I want a snack, I’ll eat anything crunchy. Popcorn, tortilla chips, granola and carrots all fit the bill.
My mom used to buy food once a month and freeze all the snacks like candy bars and Little Debbies. Now, I would rather have my candy bars frozen than at room temp. I can’t turn down a frozen bar. Yum-O
My favorite snack is Peanut Butter M&Ms. I just can’t leave them alone when they are in the house!
I follow via feeder . . . and love it!
my favorite would have to be a trial mix I put together myself with almonds, pecans, macadamia nuts and dried cranberries. My husband calls it “his crack” because he is powerless to resist it! (better for him that some of the other stuff he likes to snack on.)
Favorite snack…..dark chocolate M&M’s. Easy to transport, easy to eat and relatively easy to hide from children :). Now, if they put those in a “nutritious” granola bar….I’m there.

I can’t pick just one because I have a serious sweet tooth. So anything sweet is fine with me. Although if I had to pick between a candy bar or Pepsi—I’d choose a Pepsi.
We love the chocolate mocha one best but really we eat any flavors!!
We just tried these this week. I had a coupon which doubled. I had to hide the last one then fibbed about it, saying they were all gone.
my favorite snack, when at home, I take frozen blueberries, thaw a bit…then add plain yogurt!
