I’m going to do you a little favor. I’m going to save you from wasting your money on bad granola bars. Because friends don’t let friends buy bad granola bars, right? And I’m pretty easy to please when it comes to granola bars. In fact, I’ve hardly met a granola bar I don’t like. Until now.
When I saw the Quaker True Delights granola bars, I was intrigued. I got a free sample and a coupon in the mail, and I must say that the chocolate/raspberry one was delicious. So, when I was at the grocery store I picked up a box of the Coconut Banana Macadamia nut granola bars.
I was intrigued. Macadamia nuts? Yum. Coconut? Yum. Banana? I’ll keep an open mind.
Yuck.
It was actually so not good that I spit out the bite I had taken. I was chewing and thought, why am I still eating this? It tastes like the dried bananas went bad or something. So I Spit it out in the trash and threw the rest of the granola bar away. Ugh. No WAY will my kids eat it, I’ll tell you.
I’ll try to feed the remaining bars to my friend’s chickens, but I don’t know if even they will eat it.
Please, don’t waste your money. And Quaker? Try again.
I must agree with you there. However, I am pretty sure the chickens will love them.
I sometimes have that realization while I’m eating – I don’t even like this! Why am I still chewing and wasting calories?
Thanks for the heads up. I would have thought those would have been good flavors too!
I’m surprised. They sound like they should be delicious.
At least they’re good enough to be chicken food. Maybe a little expensive to purchase, but they were free, right?
I had to laugh, because I had that experience about eight months ago, with the same flavor of the same granola bar. I had a great coupon, and they were on a great sale, and I was intrigued. They were the driest, most tasteless things I’d ever had–it was like eating cardboard! I wholeheartedly agree with your decision to spit it out, and I have NEVER bought them again.
