Rickland Orchards Greek Yogurt Bars – Review

We are a Greek Yogurt family, we just love it and when we had the opportunity to try a Greek Yogurt bar that did not have to be refrigerated, we jumped at the chance. When we found out that they would be available in multiple flavors that included – Blueberry Acai, Cherry Almond, Toasted Coconut, Cranberry Almond, Apple & Honey, Orchard Peach, Dark Chocolate Peanut Butter and Strawberry, we waited at the mailbox. As every adult knows, there are tons and tons of different bars out there to try from all different manufacturers so we were hoping this would be distinct and delicious at the same time. The bars did not disappoint.

So after both my wife and myself took them to work (remember no refrigeration necessary) our first comment when we got home was exactly the same…they were not too sweet, they were just perfect in that aspect. In most other bars, the sugar overpowers most of the other tastes and it becomes a too sweet mess. Rickland Orchards has both the sweetness down pat, as well as the texture. They are chewy enough to not fall apart, but also not so chewy that you are rubbing your jaw after eating one. Everything just tastes fresh and natural and considering they are all-natural that is a good thing. Not one of the flavors overpowers you in any way and looking at the back wrapper where the nutrition facts are doesn’t make you cringe and it has probiotics and a nice amount of fiber so you can feel comfortable giving it to your kid as well. I think the fact that it is a Greek Yogurt bar helps cut that sweetness down, and I can say the strawberry flavor tasted like real strawberries which is usually tough to do.

With so many different flavors and the perfect level of sweetness this is going to be a huge winner for both parents and children alike. My boys liked all of the flavors with strawberry and cherry almond winning out for them. Another product that I am going to have to fight with my kids over when it comes to snack time! Since they don’t require refrigeration, they are also a great start to the day when you are running out the door to work, or something you can throw in a lunch box without having to worry about keeping it cool. Make sure to try some yourself and then hide a few bars for yourself in the cabinets so the kids/spouse do not eat them all.
