Kashi Mountain Medley Granola
While the taste is outstanding, I have to take off some points for all the calories - 220 calories in 1/2 cup! That's 440 calories per cup, compared to 270 calories in Health Valley Granola. One 1/2 cup serving of Kashi Mountain Medley Granola also has 7 grams of fat, which is 11% of the recommended daily amount, 1 gram of saturated fat, 6 grams of protein and 37 grams of total carbohydrates which includes 12 grams of sugar and and 6 grams of fiber, which is a whopping 25% of the RDA. There is also 300 mg of Omega-3 fatty acids per serving (National Institutes of Health recommended that people consume at least 2% of their total daily calories as omega 3 fats. So that would be 2 grams (2000 mg) per day based on a daily intake of 2000 calories. This is not the lowest calorie granola out there, so if you're on a diet, then this might not be the best choice. However the taste is outstanding and Kashi uses lots of natural ingredients. One 14 ounce box with 7 serving per container, cost $4.19 - making it also a bit on the pricey side. When you are eating this, be sure to weigh out your serving. It tastes so good that it is super easy to keep eating and eating! Comments
