Watch Video Here: http://www.amazon.com/review/RZULYUWNK3JP4 This healthy snack is perfect for breakfast and lunch and as a good energy snack at lunch time during work.

They are so handy to pack. They taste great and perk you up.

Highly recommended as an "on-the-go" and nutritional snack bar. snack"!
Everything but the oatmeal raisin is good; also, needs more oats.

These are the new "healthy" Quaker Oats 100-calorie granola bars; but don't let the name deceive you. While they may have zero trans-fats and no high fructose corn syrup, they're still chock full of other great things, like various preservatives, hydrogenated oil, artificial flavors, regular corn syrup, and combinations of fructose/dextrose. My advice is to buy the full-fat Quaker Oats granola bars which taste better anyhow; just practice some self-control. However, since you've already chosen this variety pack, here's the review.

The best tasting flavors are the peanut butter and chocolate chip; the oatmeal raisin has virtually neither oats nor raisins, and tastes more like a barley/rice bar. Somehow, the "oatmeal raisin" bar came with no raisins, and a much drier, barley-er consistency. What happened to the good ol' days when granola bars were primarily oats? But I digress.

As for the chocolate chip flavor, they still have enough chocolate chips scattered about to resemble a chocolate chip granola bar, and somehow the ratio of oats to barley/rice is higher in this than compared to the oatmeal raisin bars. The bar isn't too dry, and you feel pretty good eating just one of them and only taking in 100 calories. Only 100 calories? Hmm, I can afford to eat a few more...

As for the oatmeal raisin, they're terrible compared to their low fat chocolate chip brethren. There's nary a raisin to be found, and somehow, the oatmeal to barley/rice ratio is very low on these compared to the chocolate chip version. If I wanted a barley/rice bar, I wouldn't have bought a product that said "granola" on the front. Additionally, the bar is very dry; I think the lack of a nice fat (chocolate chips) definitely leaves something to be desired.

As for the peanut butter chocolate chunk, they have a great peanut buttery flavor and taste. There are little chunks of peanut butter chips inside; I still prefer the chocolate chip/chocolate chunk over the peanut butter variety because the PBCC is too dry. Stuffing too many ingredients into a granola bar has that effect.

As for the Smores, they have little chunks of dehydrated marshmallow inside. Tasty, pretty sweet, but not as good as the chocolate chip.

As for the cookies n'cream, I really couldn't tell the difference between it and the smores. I had eaten so many granola bars at this point that they all started to taste the same.

Buy these knowing you'll have slightly dry-ish oat/barley/rice bars, good for a nice snack. They're not especially healthy, but no one needs to know. Shhhh.

We go through several boxes of similar snacks in our home a week, so I thought buying in bulk would work out. I selected this because of the FIVE flavors (I have a three year old that only likes the Cookies and Cream flavor), however my Variety pack only contains four (not so much with the Cookies and Cream). Additionally dissapointing was the fact that my 12 pack only contained 11 boxes. Not so great a deal for me and I'll be sticking to the grocery store next time.
