Satisfy Your Man’s Sweet And Salty Cravings!

Is your man a snacker?  My hubby most certainly is!  We have to hide the snacks in our household.   If  he gets to them first—- THEIR GONE!  Not to spread serious personal info about his eating habits,  because I know some of his work buddies occasionally read my site, BUT he is a sleepwalker eater.  Yes, its very true.  I will find him downstairs in the kitchen at weird hours of the night  (weekends usually since he works nights) and he is raiding the cabinets.  It looks like a giant rat ransacked my kitchen when he is finished and he goes back upstairs to bed without saying a word.  STRANGE!  The next morning I will question him and he tells me he was hungry and craving something,  or he won’t remember eating anything.

General Mills,  through MyBlogSpark,   recently sent me three new products to have him to try to help satisfy those sweet and salty cravings!

Cocoa Puffs Treats Triple Chocolate:

An indulgent cereal bar that combines the great taste of Cocoa Puffs cereal and chocolate into one decadent treat, Cocoa Puffs Treats Triple Chocolate is perfect for satisfying any sweet tooth.

Bugles Hot Buffalo:

Need something salty with a bit of a kick? Look no further than Bugles Hot Buffalo Crisp Corn Snacks, which blends the taste of hot buffalo sauce with crispy corn Bugles.

Nature Valley Oats `N Dark Chocolate Crunchy Granola Bars:

If you want the best of both worlds, give Nature Valley Oats `N Dark Chocolate Crunchy Granola Bars a try. These bars mix dark chocolate pieces, oats and crisp rice nuggets for a classic crunch and burst of whole grain goodness, making them a perfect natural snack that’s high in fiber and protein, but low in saturated fat.

I was sent two samples of each one of the products and the only one I got to try was the Nature Valley Oats `N Dark Chocolate Crunchy Granola Bars.  They were so good!  Hubby devoured the Cocoa Puffs Treats and Bugles Hot Buffalo snacks before I could even picture them for this review and said they were delicious.  I think he left the Nature Valley Oats `N Dark Chocolate Crunchy Granola Bars alone, because the word “Granola” was on the package, but he missed out!  The bars reminded me more of a crunchy candy bar and were amazingly yummy.

I’m going to buy some of the Cocoa Puffs Treats plus Bugles Hot Buffalo snacks and keep them out on the counter for hubby’s midnight sleep eating walks!  He won’t have to look far to satisfy his cravings.

The snacks are exclusively sold at convenience stores.    The next time you need to get gas,  pick some of the snacks up for your man and yourself and let me know what you think.
