I have been on and off Keto for three years now. I typically jump on when I start to notice my sugar cravings getting out of control and my energy levels going down. And I tend to stay on KETO, at least loosely, for about six months at a time. When I am cutting carbs, I always miss cereal, and of course chips. Trying new low-carb snacks is one of my favorite passtimes since I am able to get a great list of food that I can enjoy guilt-free. Schoolyard Snacks have been on my list to try for a while now, so I was excited when they reached out for a review. Keep reading to see what I thought about their Peanut Butter KETO Cereal and Cheddar Cheese KETO Puffs.
KETO Cereal, Peanut Butter
These individually packaged peanut butter cereals from Schoolyard Snacks are only 100 calories and 1 net carb! To make it even better, they have 15 grams of protein per serving. Plus, all of the ingredients were ones that I could read and understand, which is always a good sign. Based on all of this information, I felt like this cereal could quickly become one of my go-to snacks.
For me, cereal is more than just a breakfast staple. I frequently find myself grabbing a handful of cereal for a snack. And that is something I always miss dearly when I revert back to my low-carb life. I tried my first bag as an afternoon snack (no milk). It took me a few bites to get used to the texture and the flavor, but after that, I was SOLD. I couldn’t wait to try a bag for breakfast the next day. When I tell you I jumped out of bed the next morning, I’m not exaggerating. I tore open a bag and splashed on some unsweetened coconut milk.
This time around, I didn’t need a few bites to become accustomed to the crunch and taste. I was immediately in love with this cereal! Schoolyard Snacks offers a lot of other flavors and eventually, I will get around to trying more. But for now, this is my favorite KETO cereal and I will stick with the peanut butter flavor.
KETO Puffs, Cheddar Cheese
The nutritional facts for the KETO Puffs were equally impressive. With only 1 gram of net carbs, 100 calories, and 14 grams of protein. While I’m not typically reaching for cheddar cheese puffs, I do tend to desire savory snacks now and then. Therefore, I figured these puffs would be perfect to have on hand when a craving hits. And again, since they are low in carbs and have no artificial ingredients, I could feel good about eating the whole bag.
Out of all the flavors of puffs that Schoolyard Snacks had to offer, Cheddar was at the bottom of my list. So I wasn’t expecting to fall in love with this snack. But they turned out to be quite delicious. The crunch, flavor, and orange fingers reminded me of a snack I love when I’m not on Keto. You know which snack I’m talking about! I gave a bag to my 7-year-old son to see what he thought and he loved them just as much as I did. What a perfect guilt-free treat to add to our pantry. Now, I need to go and order some bags of the Fiery Hot Puffs…you know, for research purposes.
Overall
I love everything about these two products from Schoolyard Snacks. The macros fit perfectly into my low-carb lifestyle. The serving sizes felt like more than enough to curb my hunger. The flavor and texture satisfied my cravings. From where I sit, these are the perfect guilt-free snack to have on hand. I can feel good about eating both products and serving them to my family. Now I really need to go order the Firey Hot Puffs, so you will have to excuse me.
