I received a free sample of Kashi, TLC, Tasty Little Cereal Bars, Blackberry Graham, after taking a short in store survey on new Kashi products.  I love Kashi cereals and assumed their morning breakfast bars would have the same satisfying flavor as their cereals.  I was mistaken.  Kashi, TLC, Tasty Little Cereal Bars, Blackberry Graham, is high in fiber but low in taste.  The fruit filling was okay but the graham crust was a bit dull. 

Maybe it was the sesame and graham combination, or maybe I'm just not fond of things made with graham.  I don't even use graham cracker for crust when I make my low fat baked apple cheesecakes, I prefer a crushed vanilla wafers with chopped almond crust . . . but I digress.

Kashi, TLC, Tasty Little Cereal Bars, Blackberry Graham,  do have a plus.  They have 3g fiber, 2g protein with 7 whole grains topped with real fruit.  All very healthy at 110 calories per bar, but the taste didn't knock my Garfield bedroom slippers off. Yes, I have and wear Garfield slipper . . . again, I digress.

As I said earlier I do love Kashi products and as a loyal Kashi consumer I'll try their other flavors of Kashi, TLC, Tasty Little Cereal Bars i.e. strawberry and apple. 

In my opinion, it wasn't the worst cereal bar I've had but I don't want to give up on this cereal bar product until I've tried the other flavors.  Kashi, TLC, Tasty Little Cereal Bars, Blackberry Graham, may be high in fiber just low in taste.

NOTE: the reviewer indicated that they received a sample of Kashi, TLC, Tasty Little Cereal Bars, Blackberry Graham, 6 Bars (1.2 oz,35 g Each)

You may want to try them, as I wrote, I'm not a big graham cracker fan so I wasn't impressed. Maybe the strawberry or apple flavor will taste better. I'll try them next week and let you know. . . in the mean time thanks so much for the comment! :)
