    Priced to sell?

    We've all had the occasional treat where the taste and value surprised us, but this was not one of those treats. First thing I noticed is that it is plastic sealed. Not a fan of it and I'm sure it does speak of qualify/freshness when you plastic seal a product. To me, first impression is always important. After taking the muffin out the plastic wrap, the next thing I noticed was the size. It was not very big... that would explain the lower calorie count. My first bite of the muffin confirm that I was correct that the muffin was flaky and not moist. The tea that I had with it helped me finish it off.

    I would not recommend this to anyone really. For the amount of $4.50, I could get 6 muffin from my local bakery versus 4 of these plastic wrapped muffin. I'm sure there is a lot of fiber and fruity goodness. But I like to taste my muffins fresh... I mean, who doesn't?

    Maybe in a different flavour?

    Please note that I have received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club.

    I was asked to review the Good & Simple Fruit + Fibre Muffins. In this specific case, the "fruit" part is made up of blueberries and cranberries which sounded very good on paper. Unfortunately, I didn't think that the taste was up to par. Let's just say that the "fibre" flavour is extremely present despite the content of the muffin not even being very high in fibre either at 5 g per muffin. I have to say I was actually shocked to read the ingredients as well as the nutritional information: there is not much good nor simple about it. Each muffin contains 13 g of fat. And I don't care for the way the company listed the good ingredients in bold and the not so good in regular characters, it kind of makes you wonder if they think most customers are too dumb to read the entire list and will be satisfied with what is in bold. I have to say, I almost found this to be a bit condescending.

    What I did like is that every muffin is individually wrapped which keeps freshness sealed and is convenient for lunches. Despite the freshness being sealed, however, the muffins were pretty dry and crumbly.

    I see that the reviews for other flavours seem better than for this one, but I personally would not bother with them again, given there are so many healthier and tastier options available, but it might just be my taste!

    Just Average Muffins

    I got these muffins for free from ChickAdvisor in exchange for my honest review.

    These muffins were good, they did have some fruit (not nearly enough) and fibre. They are individually wrapped which is nice for being on the go, or putting in a lunch. I'd prefer to try a different flavour next time.

    If it wasn't free I wouldn't buy it

    These muffins tasted just okay. They weren't any better than the store brand muffins and they aren't nearly as good as ones you can get at cafes.

    Also a note - for a company that is about "Natural" and "Good & Simple" you'd think they would refrain from having the muffins wrapped in packagin
