I was lucky enough to get a sample of some new snack foods you may have seen in the stores recently.
They are True North Brand Snacks and I had seen them in the store, but wasn’t sure what they were.
When I got the package and opened it up, of course my kids were right next to me and they were excited to open them up to try them right away. It was like Christmas for them…”what’s in the package?” they squealed!
There were three bags of their product. Almond cranberry crisps, pecan/almond/peanut nut clusters and citrus burst nut clusters. We of course had to try some immediately. Our verdict?? Fantastic, but also a little addicting too! I would have a couple of clusters, then walk away, then go back and have a few more. SO GOOD!
Some facts about these YUMMY snacks:
True North Snacks are 100% natural.
Every True North product starts with nutritious almonds, peanuts, pistachios, pecans or walnuts. These nuts are lower in saturated fat than other nuts, and contain mostly mono and polyunsaturated fats.
Every True North product contains at least 4g of protein per serving.
You’ll find nuts listed as the first ingredient in every one of their tasty nut snacks.
If you visit their website you can receive a $1.00 off coupon, BUT for some lucky person who comments I will mail you a bag of the nut clusters.
I actually made a great desert with them. I had ½ cup of fat free vanilla ice cream, then I chopped up ½ a serving of the nut cluster snack and drizzled the top with sugar free chocolate syrup. A-M-A-Z-I-N-G!
My only suggestion is to portion them out and not eat out of the bag, because you will keep eating them. They’ve made a nice addition to my kids’ lunches too!
Have you tried these yet, if so, which flavor is your favorite??

I LOVE the pecan almond peanut clusters!
I haven’t tried this particular brand, but I got a similiar knock off for my car trip to NC – I opted for the pecan version. They were good, but I agree – addicting! Luckily I was driving, so all I had to do was put them far enough away that I couldn’t reach! hehe
I haven’t tried them yet, but I have always been kind of intrigued. Next time I see them, I will pick up a pack!
I have been avoiding buying them because I think I would like them a little tooo much!
I have seen them around, but haven’t purchased them yet!
(I have a Glee Gum Giveaway going on my blog too! 😀 )
looks delicious!
I’ve seen these, but haven’t tried them yet – they do look delicious!
I would love to try the Citrus Burst clusters!
YUM! I just heard about these yesterday in fact and looked for them last night but didn’t find ’em. Can you pick me? Pick me!
Would love the Pistachio, Walnut, Almond, Pecan cluster
Haven’t tried em yet but I would love to!
I feel left out. I’ve not seen these or tried them. Poor me!:(
true north nut clusters are the best – the new citrus flavor is soooooo good!
I’ve seen these around. They look good.
Haven’t tried these yet but would like to!
Ooh they sound delicious, I’ve never tried them before.
I wonder how easy they’d be to recreate at home? Hmmmm.
I’ve had something somewhat like this and they were delicious! Hopefully True North is a lil cheaper, lol
Thanks for the opportunity!
