Review: 180 Snacks Cranberry Pomegranate Trail Mix Crunch

The delightful and magical time known as company-provided snack time it me again at the office recently and the treat of choice on this day was this single serving size bag of 180 Snacks Cranberry Pomegranate Trail Mix Crunch.  I'm sure the company picked this up as part of a megabox from Costco or some wholesaler, so I don't have a price.  What I do have is that this bag came in at 1.25 ounces and had 150 calories per serving.  In a tricky math switcheroo, this 1.25 ounce bag was actually 1.25 servings.  That means that the bag was roughly 188 calories.  I've obviously seen packaging with multiple servings before, I don't think I've ever seen something this small packaged so specially with multiple servings before.  There's a first time for everything, I guess.

Review: Caveman Dark Chocolate Cherry Nut Bar

Perhaps I didn't notice it in my last Caveman Foods review, but the wrapper of the subject of today's review had the tagline of "Paleo Friendly."  I had no idea what that meant, so I used my friend the Google machine and found out that it referred to a specific diet known as the Paleolithic diet, or more informally as the caveman diet.  Like how the manufacturer tied their name into that?  Actually, I write that in jest, but I find it pretty creative to be honest.  My admiration of their creativity aside, I picked up this Caveman Dark Chocolate Cherry Nut Bar at Meijer for $1.25.  Each all natural, gluten free and peanut free bar is 1.4 ounces and has 190 calories with four grams of protein and three grams of fiber.

Review: Raw Rev 100 Chocolate Crave Food Bar

The free sample train that comes as a result of writing a food review blog is pretty fun.  As much as I'd like to think I know everything, I very much do not and via free samples, I often find out about product that I've never heard of before.  Today's review is of a free sample that I received that I had definitely not heard of before and that leads me to this review of the Raw Rev 100 Chocolate Crave Food Bar.  The company that manufactures these bars, Raw Revolution, ordinarily manufactures full size bars, but since this particular bar is a diminutive version of the full size bar, they've decided to shorten the name to Raw Rev.  Very cute.  Anyway, this shortened bar is 0.9 ouncs and in keeping up with the name, it 100 calories with three grams of protein.  It's also got quite a bit else going for it too being that it's peanut free, gluten free, dairy free and organic.  Holy moly.
