My Thoughts

The stores are packed with dozens of cereal choices but its hard to find ones that my kids will eat that aren't filled with artificial ingredients. I didn't really think it was possible to find a natural cereal that didn't taste like card board. But we got a exciting surprise when we tried out Puffins from Barbara's. Their cereals have no artificial preservatives and no artificial colors or flavors.  They are made with 100% whole grain oats and all-natural ingredients. And they taste great!

For our review, we got to try out the Snackimals Chocolate Crisp and Cinnamon Puffins.  I told my son this was a healthier brand then the one we usually get. He shrugged, took a mouthful, then looked up at me in shock and said, "Wow Mom.This actually tastes really good!" If a ten-year-old likes it, you know it must taste great. I have to agree that the cereal was awesome. You won't be able to tell the difference between this and the big name brands.  It stayed crispy in the milk and had just the right amount of flavor. Each of my kids wanted a second bowel they liked it so much. And since it made with whole grain and has no trans fat I know its good for them.



In addition to the cereal, we also tried out the Snackimals Crackers. I have two toddlers and they loved them. They taste amazing and come in adorable endangered animal designs. They even have a chocolate that mom's might want to steal for themselves because they have such a rock chocolate taste.

Another great thing about this company that is worth pointing out is that they really give back. They are actively involved in helping preserve the natural habitats of seabirds, including their mascot the Puffin. Plus they are a green company that uses environmentally friendly post consumer cardboard in their packaging. If you would like to learn more about Puffins Cereal and their tasty products, check out the Barbara's website. You can also follow them on twitter or become their fan on face book.  You can find their cereal at Whole Foods. Check them out today and start living healthier!
