Review: belVita Soft Baked Oats & Chocolate Breakfast Biscuits

I wish I had done a better job of categorizing Free Friday Download posts because it seems like the Kroger promotion is starting to account for a fair amount of reviews.  Today's review is another one of those instances as a recent coupon promotion allowed me to pick up a box of these belVita Soft Baked Oats & Chocolate Breakfast Biscuits at of course no cost to me to add to my modest belVita collection.  Within each box are five soft baked biscuits and each biscuit clocks in at 1.76 ounces and has 200 calories and 3 grams of protein, in addition to some "Nutritious Morning Energy."

Review: belVita Golden Oat Breakfast Biscuits

I've touched on a couple of belVita flavors previously and I've had a hit and a miss.  So, my expectations going into trying out this package of four belVita Golden Oat Breakfast Biscuits that I picked up on sale at Marsh for $1.00.  This specific package weighed in at 1.76 ounces and the four biscuits combined for 230 calories and four grams of protein.  It was made of nineteen delicious (their words) grams of whole grain as well, if that is your cup of tea.

Review: belVita Cinnamon Brown Sugar Breakfast Biscuits

I've touched on belVita's breakfast biscuits once before on this blog and while I believe they are best eaten when dipped in coffee or tea (they are British after all), I try to eat them "naked" for the purposes of keeping a "pure" review.  I know that's a silly idea, but hey, I am the Crazy Food Dude after all.  Anyway, I was standing in line at my local Marsh grocery store recently and I saw a four pack of these belVita Cinnamon Brown Sugar Breakfast Biscuits sitting on the rack just begging me to make an impulse purchase and being the impulsive goof that I am, I fell victim to the trick and forked over the $1.00 for these.  The entire package of four biscuits ways in at 1.76 ounces and has 230 calories and four grams of protein, so some simple math will help you get the per biscuit values.

Review: belVita Blueberry Breakfast Biscuits

When belVita products came out in America well over a year ago, they were reviewed ad nausea throughout the blogosphere, so I stayed away.  Plus, at the time, buying a box of these at the grocery store didn't really interest me all that much.  Recently though, I became interested in doing a review on these belVita Blueberry Breakfast Biscuits because I saw a single pack of these on sale at Kroger for $1.00.  Each pack has four biscuits and the total statistics for the entire four pack are 1.76 ounces, 230 calories and four grams of protein.

Review: Haagen-Dazs Spiced Caramel Biscuit Ice Cream

I don't know why, but I've always stayed away from reviewing Haagen-Dazs products for the blog.  Actually, I don't even buy them at the store either and I'm not sure why.  Maybe it's because I'm angry that their "pints" are only fourteen ounces or that it costs an arm and a leg to buy one (it's probably the latter).  My local Marsh ran a sale recently where it was buy two containers and get a third free, so finally with a deal like that, I was able to get these down to a range where I wouldn't have to take a bank loan just to purchase one.  So, I took the leap and that leads me to this limited edition product review of the Haagen-Dazs Spiced Caramel Biscuit Ice Cream.  Each container is fourteen ounces, which equates to 3.5 half-cup servings.  Each serving itself had a robust and completely unhealthy (par for the course with Haagen-Dazs) 290 calories per serving.  This may be off the shelves in your area by now as my Marsh usually keeps things too long (looking at some of their expiration dates is sometimes an adventure), but I'll just go ahead and add my thoughts to the long list of online reviews already done on this (links at the end of this post).
