Taste Test: Kids gave them mixed reviews. Apple cinnamon had tummy appeal for several tasters. “Yummy, I like the stuff inside,” said the 6-year-old of the blueberry. The teen tester said he’s never liked this product, and he’s not about to now.
Our Dietitian Says: Since this contains whole oats and wheat bran, it squeaks onto the list, despite having
just 1 g of fibre. And while the filling is made of fruit purée, “It’s not going to count as a fruit serving.” Serve with an apple
or a cluster of grapes, but avoid fruit juice, as this already has 14 g of sugar.
