Justin's sent me some free product coupons so I could test these out. But I had the hardest time finding these in Memphis. Our Whole Foods doesn't carry them yet (but our store is particularly slow about getting new products), but Justin's store locator said I could find them at Target. A quick glance around the Target nearest me didn't produce any easy-to-find results though. I finally found these at a small indie health food store in Jonesboro, Arkansas, where my parents live. Hopefully, you'll have better luck! I need to make a request at my Whole Foods.
Anyway, I finally found these little packs, and I'm so glad I did. Each pack comes with pretzel sticks and a couple tablespoons of nut butter.
These are perfect for stuffing in a purse or lunch bag as a quick work day snack. On Thursdays, I go to a lunchtime yoga class at my gym. It runs from 11:30 to 12:30, so I always have a hearty snack before class to tide me over since I'm not able to eat a real lunch until about 12:45 or 1 p.m., when I get back to my desk.
Last Thursday, before class, I snacked on the Hazelnut Chocolate Butter Snack Pack in the car. I've long been a fan of Justin's hazelnut chocolate butter (it's like vegan Nutella), and it paired wonderfully with the pretzels.
Today, I had the Classic Almond Butter Snack Pack before yoga class. The classic almond butter is a little thicker, so I broke a few pretzels off in it. But that was okay. Honestly, once all my pretzels were gone, I just dug my finger in. Not a drop of almond butter went waste, and I was satisfied throughout the entire yoga class.
There's also a Maple Almond Butter Snack Pack, but I wasn't able to find that one. I hope to stumble upon it soon though. I could see these becoming a crucial part of my Thursday snacks!
I love Justin's! I have a packet of the vanilla almond butter every day.
ReplyDeleteSuch a good idea for people like me who can't portion control nut butter haha
ReplyDeleteOh, I love their hazelnut butter with pretzels! I hope I see these somewhere soon - they sound delicious :)
ReplyDeleteI found these in a cute little corner store near Haight-Ashbury last week! I wasn't crazy about the fact that the almond butter needed stirring, and also broke a few pretzels that way. Overall, though, it's a great product idea and I'm extremely grateful to see it in stores, as both a vegan and someone with a peanut allergy!
ReplyDeleteDo we get these in Trader Joe's...
ReplyDeleteThey look so delicious...
This sounds like such a great idea! They're like the snacks of our childhoods, but grown up a little. I'd probably prefer the chocolate butter one, just because that sweet/salty combo is soo good (as surely you know)
ReplyDeleteI found these at my local Target, and my local Wegman's. But I couldn't tell you which section.
ReplyDeleteWas it just me, but I found that pretzels too buttery? I wasn't a big fan of that. But the nut butter was awesome!
