Average Rating:  out of 5 stars

Rating: 3 out of 5 stars - Store Brands Are Better
Kellogg's laid claim to the concept of this type of cereal bar, yet the texture of these is very soft and more like a cookie. Likewise, both the fillings and the crusts are sickeningly sweet and almost overpower the fact that the idea is that the bar is supposed to taste like "real" fruit. Any variety of Wal-Mart's Great Value brand of cereal bars trumps these in a heartbeat. GV's crust is more dense the sweetness is subtle, allowing pleasant fruitiness to filter though. I highly recommend those.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great for summer camp snacks
I sent these to my son at overnight camp for a nutritious snack.Because the bars are individually wrapped, they stayed fresh during his camp session. They were tasty and great for a mid day snack or a breakfast treat if he did not like what was served. Also, they were accepted by his camp as they are Kosher.



Rating: 2 out of 5 stars - More Cookies than Nutrition
The name of these "Nutri-Grain Cereal Bars" might lead one to believe they have some whole grain nutritional value. But when you read the packaging the only nutrition comes additives. There is no fiber to speak of and they are loaded with high fructose corn syrup.

I use them when my blood sugar drops too low much as I would a piece of candy. These travel pretty well and do give you a bit of volume so you don't feel hungry but they are far from being a healthy food choice.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Great taste, great fast food breakfast
These have such a wonderful taste to them - all kids I've ever given them to just love them, even the picky ones. If you're an adult, they certainly won't do much to fill you up in the mornings - you'll need a side of eggs or something to go with them, but they do taste great, are a great snack for baseball games, etc., and really help out when you need a toddler snack in a hurry. Great options, we eat them all the time, and really, they're not just for breakfast! Recommend!



Rating: 1 out of 5 stars - Nutri-NOT Bars
These bars are a great example of a sneaky marketing ploy by a major food corporation. By using the word "Nutri" as part of the name of the product, consumers are tricked into thinking these are healthy. These should really be called CANDY-GRAIN bars! Here's the nutritional low down:
1. These bars contain 13 grams of sugar. (Notice the first ingredient in the "filling" is strawberry preserves, made of high fructose corn syrup and strawberries. The next ingredient is...corn syrup, followed by fructose, ... Read More
