Cascadian Farms Oats & Chicolate soft baked squares: What do you get when you get a Chips Ahoy cookie, make it square and 1.5x as thick, use organic ingredients, and soften the texture to make it more crumbly? These Cascadian Farms oats and chocolate soft baked squares. They really do taste like Chips Ahoy. 2.5/5.0

Kashi Dark Mocha Almond Chewy Granola Bars: Leaning towards the crunchier side of the chewy granola bar spectrum, Kashi's whole grain granola bars contain barley, rye, and oats, as well as roasted almonds and sizable dark chocolate chips. Very lightly sweetened with a mild mocha flavor. I was hoping it would be more filling, but the bar alone would not be enough for the afternoon, and having two granola bars just feels like too much. Overall, it's decent, but not a product I'd likely purchase again. 3.0/5.0

Trader Joe's rolled oats and peanut butter fiberful granola bars: Like most fiber bars, all semblance of healthfulness is masked in candy-bar coatings. This one has a chocolate base, drizzled chocolate, and a chewy peanut butter and oats foundation. Don't get me wrong: I'm not complaining. This candy bar that just so happens to have 9g of fiber is a filling snack to get you through your post-lunch hunger pang. 3.5/5.0

Odwalla superfood bar: While this chewy snack bar has an off putting greenish-brown color, I found it to be tasty and very filling. As far as I saw, there aren't any green veggie ingredients, so the color is a mystery. Instead, the bar contains a range of fruit and grain ingredients such as dates, bananas, raisins, coconut, and crispy rice (which added a nice crunchy texture). The one thing I would change is I found the bar to be a little too sweet (20g sugar per bar), but otherwise, I was happy with it. 3.5/5.0

Kind peanut butter and dark chocolate bars: Great texture; mostly chewy, but quinoa and other grains add crunch. Flavor itself is classic and not particularly exciting, but the snack overall is wholesome and something you can feel good about. 3.5/5.0

Bob's Red Mill steel cut oats: Not quite a snack, but I love these microwavable oats. Great texture and flavor, and filling enough to get you through lunch. A warm treat for cold months. 4.0/5.0
