Something I Tried: Trader Joe's Pumpkin Spice Granola Bark
I heard about this Pumpkin Spice Granola Bark from watching the World of Vegan Youtube channel. It's a seasonal item from Trader Joe's and of course I had to have it.
Granola can be dry and crumbly with each bite. I'm looking at you Nature Valley brand... This bark is absolutely the opposite because it holds together well, which is aided in part by the thick chocolate coating. When I bit in, there was no mess in my lap afterwards, huzzah!
For the taste: it's genuinely pumpkin-y and I really like that flavor. It also has the appropriate amount of spice and maple sweetness. My absolute favorite part was the pumpkin seeds on top which were salted!
The only downsize is the bark is in large, uneven chunks which is thick and hard to break into smaller chunks without getting some melted chocolate on your fingers. Oh well, I guess I have to eat the big piece then.
Overall Taste: 9/10
Pumpkin-ness: 7/10
