Freebie Review 32 – Bear Naked Fruit and Nuts
Hi my favorite freebie friends! Welcome to another yummy freebie review, this time being a yummy little treat with a funny little name – free Bear Naked Fruit and Nuts granola.
This freebie was posted on September 17th and said it would come sometime in December. But as I opened the mail today, there it was! So hopefully if you ordered this sample when it was posted you will get yours soon too.
I was so excited and as I was sitting down to inspect the little bag I noticed something. One of the ingredients listed was COCONUT. I am deathly allergic to it, but why should that keep you from a review? And no, before you become concerned that I took one for the team and got all covered with hives while reviewing this, I didn’t! My stand in and friend Chloey is going to give us her thoughts on this freebie.
First of all the Fruit and Nut flavor came in about a cup serving little bag, snack pack as we freebie people know. The ingredients include whole grain oats, honey, almonds, raisins, cranberries, coconut, walnuts, pecans, maple syrup and oat bran. It smells really amazing, ah just to taste it.
As Chloey is inspecting each little piece with words like, ohhhhhh and ahhhhhhhh, I am like well? She says it’s very crunchy and sweetly drizzles in honey. It has a smooth peanutty flavor but it’s not over powering. Almost like trail mix – a little sticky but hey, licking your fingers makes it all the more fun! Choley then poured some on the yogurt and freaks out. “Oh my god! You have to try this!” she says. Um, yea…allergic…Well by the face she made when she was eating it and the sounds I never knew a person was supposed to make, I have come to the conclusion that your Bear Naked treat is going to hit the spot. And hey, it’s healthy for you!
It comes in 2 oz bags which makes it perfect for on the go or to throw in the kid’s lunch box. It’s price range isn’t bad either. I could not find it in my local stores, but on the site it sells for 12.99 per 12 packs with free shipping. Flavors include Heavenly Chocolate, Banana Nut and Peanut Butter. There are also hot cereals, trail mix and protein packs.
You can head on over to the site and pick up your free sample, just click this link and fill out your info! Hey, even Yogi and Boo Boo would like this!!
Rating (1-5): 
I found it really good as well, although as someone who suffers from TMJ, I found it a little too hard on the jaw. It would be perfect over yogurt though. Great idea!
I have TMJ too, especially now since its colder…and it is good on yogurt! I like it on oatmeal as well, it makes it a little less crunchy!
By the way….yes i did finally try this….its amazing what Benadryl does for you when your allergic to something!
You can purchase 12 oz bags of Bear Naked granola at Publix. It’s awesome and actually good for you.
Wooohooo another great review! Thank you, Thank you I can’t wait to get this in the mail.
I ordered this sample a few weeks ago for myself and my mom (she doesn’t have a computer – shocker!). We live in two different towns about 10 miles apart. We both received empty boxes. I’m so sad…
Samaree, I’m quite sorry to hear about that. You should e-mail the company and tell them about your experience – I wouldn’t be surprised if they rushed a replacement freebie to you.
I got this freebie myself last week, so I can attest to the fact that they do in fact send it out!
My husband and I got a good laugh when we got ours yesterday. All the tape had been removed… I thing the box had something to do with it…”LIVE BEAR NAKED” … Hubby thinks someone thought we were getting porno! The granola is very tasty!
