Bakery on Main Granola Review & Giveaway
I like taking snacks with me when I go out for a couple of hours or more. I often take a small container of mixed nuts, but it’s always nice to change it up. Bakery on Main recently sent me each of their gluten-free products to review. I’m so glad they did. I love this stuff!
First is the question of whether their products are safe to consume. Here is the response I received from their representative:
1. Granola Bars
These bars are chewy, not the dry hard type. They are not overly chewy, though, which is one thing I never liked about granola. I liked all three varieties, but just so you know the peanut butter is not a strong flavor.
2. Granola
This granola is great by itself for breakfast, or a snack, but is also a perfect yogurt or ice cream topping.

3. Fiber Power Granola
If you are looking for ways to get extra fiber in your diet, here’s a great way to do it.

Bakery on Main is offering a reusable tote bag which will contain one of each full sized product, a total of ten, to one winner.

Always looking for some options for breakfast, these look great.
Thanks for the review, I'll feel more comfortable spending money on them.

I would like to try the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Granola Bars. We are taking a cruise next month and these would be great to bring on the trip.
I have only tried the peanut butter chocolate chip bar and I thought it was amazing. It was the generous amount of chocolate chips that got me. I didn't even know there was peanut butter in it until I read the label.
I would love to try the Cinnamon Raisin Granola!

Wow. I've been gluten free for about a year now, and thought I'd never be able to have granola again! I'd definitely try the Nutty Maple Cranberry granola first.
I have liked you on Facebook for some time now but just now signed up to view you via RSS feed. I would love to try the bars especially the peanut butter chocolate chip ones. They seem so convenient to bring to work. I have not seen these in my local stores.
I love their cereals, but I've never tried the other products. I think the granola bars would be a nice place to start. Yummy!
I would want to try the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Granola bar! yum!
