Peanut Butter Lovers' Bars
Kashi is well-known for whole grain products, including granola bars and these are worthy of the name and your attention. These Peanut Peanut Butter Chewy Granola Bars are doubly good, indeed. They are satisfying peanut perfection and not too sweet. You won't feel like you are eating a tooth-aching dessert.
Crunchy, lively and portable--a perfect snack to take with you and enjoy on the go with coffee, tea, milk, soy milk, whatever beverage makes your day.

Utz to You
It was sometime around 1921 and Bill and Salie Utz wanted to make a fresher potato chip. Almost a century later, having done that and more a long time ago, they have added some unexpected additions. Among some 19 new items are, on the sweet side, old-fashioned, chewy Grandma Utz Cookies, packed 2 to a bag for convenience, in chocolate chip, peanut butter and oatmeal raisin. On the savory side are the new Utz Nutz line that feautures bags of Salted Peanuts, Hot Peanuts, and Cashews.
They have also added some spice with Utz Mild and Medium Chunky Salsas and single serve Salsa dip cups. The single serve are a nice idea when a smaller portion will do.
Another mainstay, pretzels, have not been neglected. Now there are new takes on the famous Utz pretzels—portable 10 oz bags of Specials, Dark Specials, Sourdough Hards and Extra Thins, as well as 15-ounce family-sized bags of Honey Wheat, Butter, and Pumpernickel Select pretzels.

Mini-packs of energy--and taste
When you want a snack bar that is a little smaller in size but still packs the nutrition and taste you want, consider Clif Bar’s Mini Energy Bars. Each one is 28.4 grams of energizing ingredients that give you pocket-sized fuel and taste you keep you going. Tuck them in your pocket, purse, bag or backpack.
Delicious, convenient and organic, CLIF BAR MINI Energy Bars contain the same combination of nutritious and energizing ingredients found in full-size CLIF BARs. Joining the popular chocolate flavors—Chocolate Chip, Chocolate Brownie and Crunchy Peanut Butter—CLIF BAR MINI Energy Bars are now in a variety pack of three delicious bakery flavors—Oatmeal Raisin Walnut, Blueberry Crisp and Chocolate Chip Peanut Crunch.
And the CLIF C Bar is another full-size alternative-- a fruit and nut bar made like a home baked snack. CLIF C starts with all-natural ingredients including a pinch of sea salt – just enough to bring out the true taste of the bars’ naturally sweet fruits and wholesome nuts. Two layers of distinct flavors and textures make this bar a healthy and great tasting snack, offering one full serving of fruit in every bar. The 70 percent organic CLIF C bars come in four flavors: Raspberry, Apple, Blueberry and Cherry Pomegranate.
Very handy to have around.
