Quaker provided me with samples and a family fun kit in exchange for this post/giveaway. However, all opinions of the ooey-gooey goodness are 100% my own, and honest, as always. #QuakerUp
“Hurry up! Get your backpack on….the bus is HERE!”.
Yeah. You catch yourself saying screaming that too?! I like to pride myself in that we’ve got our back to school morning routine in check – and we do most mornings. But, every once in awhile, I’ve lost complete track of time (usually cause I’m on Facebook early, scoping out the latest drama) and we’re scrambling to get ready.
Because I don’t actually COOK breakfast at home in the mornings and little man won’t always eat breakfast at school – I keep a stock of granola bars on hand. Always. Always, always, always! At least he can scarf one of those down in a couple of minutes before he gets on the bus. Oh, yeah, and then I can enjoy one with a nice yummy cup of coffee while I’m having my morning devotional time, too!
So, Quaker is the bomb (dot) com right?! They always have been, in my book! They’re a household name, loved and trusted. You remember — your grandma probably always had a canister of Old Fashioned Oats sitting in the pantry. I still love me some Old Fashioned Oats, but Quaker has come a LONG and TASTY way since the olden days!
Think Girl Scout Cookies. Yes, please! The yummy worlds collide with the new Quaker® Chewy® Girl Scouts® Granola Bars! That’s right! Quaker has teamed up with the Girl Scouts to make a crazy-good Chewy Granola Bar! They actually sent me a couple boxes to try ——- and O.M.G. Is it sad that I’ve eaten more of them than my kid has?!
They sent me the Quaker Chewy Girl Scouts Thin Mints Granola Bars, and the Caramel Coconut variety too (think Samoas!). My mouth was in heaven when I tried them, and I’m fully admitting that I tried both at the same time! What I love about the Quaker granola bars is that they have 8 grams of whole grains in them – so not only are they sweet and yummy, they’re a good source of fiber too!
You can find the Thin Mints variety nationwide and the Caramel Coconut variety will be available at Target and select retailers starting in August — and nationwide in January of 2016!
