PRODUCT REVIEW: Macro Snack Bites

I don't know if anyone in Australia has noticed, but recently Woolworths have seriously been building their Macro Wholefoods Market range of products. If you follow me on Instagram you will see i have received their amazing Quinoa Cups, I have used their coconut water and a few other things.

A couple of weeks a go I noticed the new Snack Bite range, my local store has four flavours. When I first saw them I was excited to check them out, especially after seeing they are only $1 and all gluten free.

Apricot Almond and Quinoa

I make a lot of my own raw treats, snack bites and so on, I think these would be good as something to have in your handbag, in your cupboard at work or at your boyfriends house to deter you from choosing something unhealthy when there is no other option.

The four in the range are, gluten free, egg free, dairy free, have no added sugar, aswell as no artificial colours, flavours or preservatives.


Cashew Cranberry and Amaranth 
Rating : 8/10
Taste: Great texture and balance of flavour, this one was a lot sweeter tasting than the others, perfect for something transitioning from biscuits as afternoon tea or a product that does have added sugar.
Calories: 102 calories
Sugar: 7.0gm

Almond Golden Berries and Quinoa 

Rating : 7/10
Taste: Quite sour, if you don't like sweet this will suit you. I didn't mind it, however it was probably my least favourite.
Calories: 94 Calories
Sugar: 6.4gm





Apricot Almond and Quinoa
Rating : 9/10
Taste: hard texture that is almost like a little fruit cake with little crunchy almond pieces,  this one had the sweetness you are after with
 your afternoon cup of tea, whats interesting is that it is the highest in sugar, sits at the second lowest in overall energy.
Calories: 94.2 calories
Sugar: 7.7gm

Dates Pecan and Spirulina
Rating : 7/10
Taste: This one tastes healthy, very earthy I can taste the spirulina, but I like that, I still get the sweet kick I need after lunch. I'm surprised at how un-sweet it is considering the dates in it.
Calories:102
Sugar: 5.7gm

Date Pecan and Spirulina

Also while on Woolworths website I found a recipe for Chia, Date and Pecan Bites  which I might have to try!
