Over the past couple of years my family and I have been cutting out a lot of the foods that are overly processed and that contain "harmful" additives. We've started buying organic things when we can and we read labels ALL the time. So, I was so excited when BzzAgent sent me a coupon for a FREE package of Unreal candy. I really didn't know what to expect at first but I was hoping for the best.
Just a little information about Unreal...here's their mantra:
“Unjunk™!” Corn syrup? Out. Partially hydrogenated oils? Out. GMOs? Out. Artificial colors, flavors, and preservatives? Out. Reduced sugar by over 40% per serving on average? Check.
Sounds perfect to me! I decided to purchase the Unreal version of M&M's since I knew I would be sharing with my children and they absolutely love M&M's. Before I gave my son a chance to try them, I snuck a few for myself. Initially I expected them to taste just like M&M's which I think caught me off guard. After the first couple of pieces, I was hooked. The candy tastes so natural, the peanuts were great and best of all, they are not horrible for you like almost every other candy out there. The chocolate was smooth and you can really taste the cocoa. I truly could have finished the entire package by myself.
Next came the true taste test. My 5 year old son was the lucky one to try them since my 3 year old was napping (she totally missed out). My 5 year old is very inquisitive and immediately started asking, "What is this?" I told him to just try it and see what he thought. Next thing I know, he says, "Mom, they're all gone!" He ate the rest of the pack in just a few minutes. I guess that means that he liked it??? Of course he did and that made me so happy! I no longer have to feel bad about giving them candy. Anytime they get candy, I immediately put it up until they forget about it and then I toss it. I purchased some organic suckers for them and they get those periodically but sometimes I do feel bad about not allowing them any other candy. Now they actually have options and I can say, you know what, sure you can have that chocolate. Now don't get me wrong, it's not going to be a staple in the house or anything but when I get the questions at the checkout counter, I can now give it a second thought!
Thanks to BzzAgent for allowing me the opportunity to try Unreal candy and sending me a coupon for a free package. All opinions about the product are my own and no other compensation has been received.
