Kars – Sweet ‘N Salty Mix

Review of Kars, The American Trail Mix: Sweet ‘N Salty Mix

Some of the whole ingredients include, peanuts, raisins, chocolate, and sunflower seeds. A handful of this bite and all I taste is raisins,  which was a bit overpowering. The combination is sweet and salty is not well balanced at all – I only taste sweetness from raisins and chocolate and not a hint of salt. Texture is on point with peanuts and chocolate being crunchy, and raisins being chewy. I barely tasted any sunflower seeds.

Other ingredients listed on the package includes artificial coloring on the chocolate, which I felt was unnecessary.

Rating: 2/5. Not the worse snack for you but definitely not the best. I would rather get trail mix without added artificial coloring and the added sugar in the raisins. Definitely not something I would want to snack on pre or post workout due to unnecessary sugar content.  

Overall, I wouldn’t get this especially if you are health conscious. I will be posting my own trail mix recipe soon and I definitely prefer homemade trail mix!
