New Products
Hi Everyone! I hope this finds you well and enjoying the fall months. It’s such a beautiful time of year.
As most of you know I enjoy researching and finding new products which are nutritious in nature or just plain good, that seem worth trying. As I come across products that seem to have tremendous nutritional value and or serve as good new additions to the shelves, I blog about them to help you filter through all the products that line the shelves these days. Today I’m introducing two new products I’ve recently found which serve as excellent nutritious breakfast items…. Kashi GoLean Vanilla Graham Clusters and SO Delicious Cashew Milk.
From my experience the Kashi GoLean Vanilla Graham Clusters may be easier to find than the SO Delicious Cashew Milk just yet. I went to two stores before I found the Go Lean Vanilla Graham Clusters and four before finding the cashew milk. The verdict…
Go Lean Vanilla Graham Clusters = Much like the original GO Lean this comes with puffs, twigs, pieces, and well, clusters, I guess. I didn’t get an overwhelming sense of clusters as I would imagine and want clusters to be but none the less, I like the variety of bits and crunch in the cereal. It has a mild vanilla flavor and only packs a whopping 170 cal per cup with 36g carbs, 9g sugar (love that), 9g fiber, and 11g protein. This with some blueberries on top and a cup of unsweetened vanilla cashew milk and you’re sure to be satisfied well into the early afternoon. It’s energy and nutrition all in one with a satisfying crunch!
SO Delicious Cashew Milk = After going to several stores, I finally found this in a Whole Foods in the area. I was delighted to find an unsweetened vanilla kind so went with that option. There was, however, a plain unsweetened option as well. Overall I found this nut milk a little thicker than Almond Milk but not overly thick. It has what I thought was a very mild cashew flavor and is not overwhelming at all. It’s satisfying, nutritious and low in calories. This nut milk has 35 calories in one cup, 3.5g fat, 1g carb, 85g sodium, 0g sugar (awesome!), and 0g protein (not so good but ok if pairing with a cereal such as GO Lean VG Clusters). The upside is this cereal also packs a lot of Vitamin D, Vitamin B12, Folate, Magnesium, and Selenium. If you’re in to trying various nut milks, I’d give this one a try but do admit I think I like almond or almond / coconut better.
So there you have it, a few new grocery items to lean about and possible add to your grocery list.
Stay tuned for several cancer fighting, immune building, energy building, and detoxifying products I’m currently researching….
To Good Health,
