Wha Guru Chew in Cashew Almond






I found these in the health food section at my local Fred Meyer for $1.00 each. They had several different flavors available. I chose to try the Cashew Almond flavor for this review. Each 1.13 oz bar has 160 calories, 10 grams of fat, 9 grams of carbohydrates, 8 grams of sugar, 4 grams of protein, and 60mgs of sodium. They aren't that attractive but they are very tasty. Sort of salty and sweet and caramel flavored. They chewy but not sticky. You can really taste the nut flavors in them. They don't stick to their wrapper like the Payday Pro bars do and are less messy as well. They too are very filling and dense without being heavy. I liked them even if they do have 10 grams of fat.

CocoaVia Chocolate covered Almonds!



Yes I said Chocolate covered Almonds! They are wonderful! They have 8gms of sugar but Will and I both can tolerate them fine. They are low on the protein, only 3g and only 3g of fiber. They have 11g of fat, 3.5g saturated but it is healthy fat. They are prepackaged in 140 calorie packs ( each contains 8-9 almonds). You may not want to eat the whole pack at one sitting but they are a great for a quick chocolate fix that isn't too bad for you. They are also a dark chocolate lovers dream with lots of cocoa flavanols that everyone is talking about for heart health. I have found them at most grocery stores for $5-7 dollars for a box of 5 packs
