Kellogg’s pop-tarts has a variety of delicious flavour options. I purchased a box at Walmart for $2. Each regular box comes with four foil-wrapped packages, containing two Pop-Tarts in each. The pastry is 200 calories each. I decided to try one of the fruit flavors. I had some of it toasted and some straight from the package.
Frosted Strawberry Pop-Tarts have a very cute design with a white icing and sprinkles on top. It is very colourful. The crust is a basic flakey and buttery style pie crust. The sweetness comes primarily from the strawberry filling and a tiny bit from the icing. The icing though is not overly sweet, it added more of a crunchy texture than anything else. The flakiness is accentuated when the pastry is toasted. The filling does not have an authentic strawberry flavor, rather it has more of a sugary artificial berry taste to it that is somewhat mild. I did find this tastes fruity and it was good. I would not say it's the best poptart on the market but it is good and I would buy it again! The proportion of strawberry filling to pastry crust makes for a nice crunchy treat that isn’t overly sweet.

I purchased a pack of this from Walmart for $2. This can be more pricey at other stores like Loblaws or Metro. I love how quick and easy this is to make. It comes together in about 15 or 20 minutes. The rice is soft and tender without being too sauce. There is the perfect amount of sauce on this rice because it coats every grain. The sauce is creamy and rich. There is a strong cheese flavor which reminded me of Asiago and Parmesan. There are plenty of pieces of spinach and artichoke throughout which add a nice crunch to the dish and a bit of an earth flavor. My family and I found this to be perfectly seasoned- with a nice garlic and onion undertone. This is easy to customize and make your own by throwing in other ingredients, such as chicken or seasoning, so, you can have fun with it. -

Purchased this from a local grocery store for $2 a pack. You can eat the whole package for 180 calories. You add 4 cups of water and the pouch contents and heat it on the stove for around 10-12 minutes (or varies depending on if you put it on low, medium or high heat). I added 5 cups of water to get more soup and it was still extremely flavorful. Fair amount of noodles in each package. Be careful not to overcook the noodles or they get soggy. The noodles are the short noodles you find in a lot of packaged soups. This has a nice salt and parsley flavor without being too salty. You really get that chicken noodle soup feel and texture from this. It tastes delicious. The broth really has a nice chicken flavor. This is easy to make and delicious. Nicely seasoned. This is great for upset stomachs. -

Each granola bar is 130 calories. Vegan certified and non-gmo. Simple ingredient list that can be found in your pantry. You can purchase a package of these at Loblaws for just under $5. 5 bars come per package. Texture is soft and chewy. Nice oatmeal taste because you get the whole oats throughout the bar which add texture. There are rice crisps throughout the bar which also add a nice crunch. Held together by brown rice syrup which makes the bar nice and chewy. Unique texture which is great! Tastes like key lime pie. Great dessert-like bar. This is the best of the desert flavours by Nature Valley. This bar is sweet and full of flavor. Tastes like the key lime juice is fresh. Key lime flavour is strong and prominent. This REALLY tastes like you are eating a dessert!! Would buy again. -

Each granola bar is 140 calories. You can purchase a package of these at Loblaws for just under $5. 5 bars come per package. Each bar contains 8% iron, and 8% fibre. There are 2 grams of protein per bar. The bar is soft and chewy. There are a lot of oats. This is certified vegan. These bars are made from simple and natural ingredients that are found in your pantry. The bar is made up of oats and rice crisps. The bar is soft and chewy with a nice crunch and texture from the oasts and crisps. Soft and chewy texture. Bar is made of oats, brown rice syrup, pecans, cocoa powder. Weird play-doh taste at first when you eat it with a hint of cocoa. The bar gets better as you get use to it as the chocolate taste comes out mo9re. Doesn’t taste like the name says at all. There is a mild honey taste to the bar which adds a mild sweetness. The bar isn’t overly sweet. Crunchy from oasts. Disappointing overall..! No chunks of nuts in the bar. Do not taste pecan flavor. -

There are oats, brown rice syrup, pecans, coconut, cinnamon, nutmeg in the bar. This is certified vegan. Tastes like apple crumble or apple pie. Does not taste like an oatmeal cookie. Strong cinnamon flavor which gives the taste of apple. Wrong name - would say apple pie. Key lime is the best flavor of these bars. These bars are expensive. The ingredients are simple and there are not many of them which makes it good and nutrition. Not overly sweet. Disappointing -

130 calories per bar. Can purchase a package at Walmart for $1.50. Each package contains 8 bars. Great price and a great bar. Made with real fruit (apple and cinnamon filling). Reminds me of eating a McDonalds Apple pie. 12 grams of sugar. Contains iron. A cheaper version of a Nutrigrain bar. Oat/bran flakes on top of bar which add a nice texture. There is a good amount of filling inside the bar. Get a nice punch of cinnamon and a fresh apple flavour. Bar is mildly sweet. Wholesome texture. Tastes like the bar is made from whole wheat flour and oats. Semi-sweet bar. Same quality as Nutrigrain. Thick jelly on the inside (filling). Microwave for 10-15 seconds and eat this warm because it tastes 100% like a fresh apple pie. Super delicious! The exterior wheat/oat shell is thick and tasty. Leaves you feeling full. Well balance of wholesome and sweet. Great fruit bar!! Great for snack, lunch or breakfast!! Soft bar with filling. Peanut Free - great for children’s lunch. -

A box containing 5 individually wrapped granola bars can be purchased at Dollar Tree for $1.25. 110 calories per bar, and each contains 4% vitamin C and calcium. "White chocolate flavored dipped frosted corn flakes cereal bars” - frosted flakes on top with white chocolate dipped bottom. This bar is crunchy and chewy. The frosted flakes are crumbled consistency-- diff. Sizes; The cornflakes have that cereal and milk type feel because they are a bit softer than if you were eating corn flakes right out of the box. There is a syrup holding it together makes the frosted flakes softer; good if you're a fan of corn flakes cereal or frosted flakes. The bar is not overly sweet but there is a minor corn flake honey sweetness. The white chocolate isn't very sweet but its smooth and creamy. This is a tasty and unique bar. -

I purchase a pack of these granola bars for $1.25 from Dollar Tree. Each pack comes with 5 granola bars. The granola bars are 110 calories each. The bottom of the bar is a thick layer of white chocolate . These are good quality; deep chocolate flavour. They are made with toasted cereal which adds a satiness (cuts the sweetness in cereal portion of the bar). The bar itself not overly sweet like one might imagine The texture is chewy and crunchy. There is a cocoa flavored sugar crisp cereal that makes up the top of bar. The white chocolate taste from the bottom doesn't come through very strong or sweet-- low quality chocolate. The white chocolate comes through in a milky way. There is a bit of a sweet/salty combo in this bar. -
