Just Balanced or Target brand, they were $3.41. And the non-convenient skinny extras, we just bought them at Walmart and they were $2.98. So they are cheap, but it surprised me. I opened the box so I wouldn’t have to struggle over the camera. And that’s how Simply Balanced comes in. They come in a bag, a big bag. And so I’ll just go with some of them. And this is how they look. And then the nonis actually come in packages. There are actually six packages. They are because you may like to take them to work or something else.
Packaging and Calorie Count
And this is how you open it. And it looks like this. And so I tell you the calorie count. Plain Balanced Eight Crisps are 70 calories. And that’s per bag. That’s 90 calories per pack and you get three. So I think it looks like just balanced is low in calories. This is for 28. 28 grams is 70 calories and 30 grams is 90 calories. So yes, just balanced are low calories. But they, too, are small. I don’t know, if you’re going by grams, I guess, then yeah, they’re going to be low in calories, so I’m going to take them in anyway and get them to try.
Blind Taste Test Begins
Well, the first thing they’re going to try is this. Okay fine? Yes, hold your hand. There we go. You don’t have to eat the whole thing, just take one, good bite. It’s like rubber. Then you compare it to another type and you tell me which one you like better or are they the same? Are they completely different? The next one they are going to try is this. I’ll give you a small one.
Comparing the Brands
Same brand, really? It’s a different brand. But it should be… should they taste the same? Yes, they are the same. They should be very comparable. I haven’t tasted the other one at all. A name brand is not a name brand. And they’re explaining, you’re comparing to see if they taste the same, if one is better than the other. You can take more if you want more. There we go. Give me another small piece again. I had to drink and clean my mouth. It’s smart. oh sorry Kevin, do you need one of these again? Andrew, do you need some of the first ones too? Yes, give me a small piece. The first one? Because I’m going to put a lot of weight on it.
Initial Reactions
Do you have an opinion? No competition. Okay fine. Hold the finger of the one you like the most. You agree. Okay fine. Do they taste the same? There is no competition. It is more sweet. You can take off your mask. It’s more sweet. It’s a little soft. But I won’t buy any of them. Because it tastes like a piece of cardboard with some fruit stuck in it.
Detailed Opinions
What did you think? I liked the first one. did you? I love it. That’s what it tastes like. The former tastes like a vanilla wafer, but a really thin and chewy vanilla wafer with fruit in it. He reminded me of that. But the texture is really… I won’t try to make you guess since you’re not familiar with any of the brands. So I’m just going to tell you. The first name was Nani Ka Brand. Well, it makes sense. And they come in long, thin… they come in a package like this. And they are long, thin pieces.
Calorie Comparison and Final Thoughts
How many calories are they per package? This is the target brand. It’s just balanced. A whole packet contains only 90 calories. But it’s low calories… you get three. that’s it. You got three. So you get three of these for 90 calories. It’s low calories, though, because… mmm. This is not a bad thing. It is 30 grams. So what can you do… I’m sorry. No you’re fine you can have it and maybe a peanut butter spread, like one of the small cups. Yes. And… dip it in there for your lunch. But I could eat it plain. So you definitely love the 90s on the Tario brand anytime? Mm-hmm. Yes. I Also do. Okay fine.
Texture Preferences and Conclusion
I just don’t like the texture of either of them, though, to be honest. They are a little too chewy for me. They need to be crisp. I would prefer a crisper one to a chewier one. I need more chew it’s like a cereal, but you’d definitely choose noni between the two, I’d definitely use it on plain balance.
