Barbara's High Fiber Medley: Lands squarely at the intersection of muesli and cereal, with a combination of crunchy flakes, soft oats, and fiber "twigs" that add texture. Sweetened just enough for flavor while still feeling like an appropriately adult cereal. Extremely healthy, with an abundance of fiber and protein. A great start to the day. 4.0/5.0

They are more airy than your typical cheese ball, with a flavor that is almost like a junk food mirepoix, with tomato, onion, and carrots.
