Reese's Take 5 Review

Image
Take 5: 9/10 - I really enjoyed this candy bar! The only reason it got a point off is that it just wasn't that original. But it would be near impossible to get a 100% original flavor or idea so I am not holding a grudge. I loved how this bar had a really great ratio of all 5 tastes and main ingredients! You could taste each one clearly!  It was also cool how the creamy chocolate, caramel, and peanut butter were beautifully complemented by the crunchy pretzels and peanuts. I'm definitely glad Reese's manufactured this delicious item!

Trader Joe's Mango Passion Fruit Juice

Image
Mango Passion Fruit Juice: 10/10 - I loved this juice! It was sweet, flavorful, and refreshing! You could really taste the mango and passionfruit. It was altogether a great product. It also had just the perfect amount of sugar. I hate when things are too sweet but this had the perfect flavor combinations. 

Strawberry Chocolate Chip Lärabar Review

Image
Strawberry Chocolate Chip: 6/10 - I actually did not particularly like this flavor. It was way too sweet for my taste. However, I do always appreciate how you can really taste the chocolate in Lärabars. Additionally, I enjoy the soft and creamy texture of them.  But I did take the four full points off because I thought the overpowering, sugary fruit taste was too weird. 

Chocolate Peanut Butter Luna Bar Review

Image
Chocolate Peanut Butter: 8/10 - Keep in mind my protein bar scale is skewed higher because I have such low expectations for them. It would only get a 7/10 on my Luna bar scale. I really liked how there was a thick and creamy chocolate coating surrounding the entire bar and how I could really taste it. However, it was definitely very salty but I could barely taste the peanut butter. It did keep me very full so I could enjoy swimming at the beach which was a huge plus!  I also took a couple of points off because it just tasted like all of Luna's other protein bars. I'm not really getting any sort of variety in that department. It was also pretty dry. Both because it was boring and because I was extremely thirsty afterward. I  find it kind of crazy how after eating this bar, I've tried every single Luna bar flavor available!   Thank you for joining me on my Luna Bar journey! 

Trader Joe's Just the Clusters Ginger Almond & Cashew Granola Cereal Review

Image
Just the Clusters Granola: 9/10 - I was very impressed by this product! I thoroughly enjoyed them. There was a very strong ginger flavor which I really loved. It was extremely flavorful and had great texture as well! All of the various mix-ins (almonds, ginger, cashews, oats, etc.) had a very satisfying crunch when I bit into them. Definitely an enjoyable experience. It also just looked appetizing! The delicious golden color on the large clumps of sugary oats and sliced nuts looked fantastic to me. Overall, there was an exceptional flavor, texture, and presentation. The only reason I took a point off is that I found it was a little too  sweet for my personal taste pallet. 

Banana Chocolate Chip Lärabar Review

Image
Banana Chocolate Chip: 10/10 - I really loved the soft texture that you can easily bite into and causes the bar to smoothly melt in your mouth. It also had a very strong banana flavor which is exactly  what I was looking for! I definitely appreciated the strong, sugary fruit flavor.
