We love to try new foods. Some are great. Some don’t measure up and some become staples in our kitchen. See what you think.

Snacking and eating on-the-go is the great American pastime. Trend watchers are now reporting that many Americans eat two breakfasts – one in the early morning and another small meal midmorning. What used to be called coffee break is now breakfast number two. People are looking for healthier options for this second breakfast other than coffee and a donut. .

To answer this need for quick, healthy, portable food choices, Sargento has introduced refrigerated Sweet Balanced Breaks.These 1.5-ounce snacks, sold in 3 packs, pair sweet and savory flavors for a quick bite any time.

The newest additions to the Sweet Balanced Breaks line are:

Monterey Jack Natural Cheese, Dried Cranberries, Dark Chocolate Chunks & Banana Chips with 180 calories, 5 grams of protein, 150 milligrams of calcium and 160 milligrams of sodium.

Monterey Jack Natural Cheese, Dried Cranberries & Dark Chocolate Covered Peanuts with 170 calories, 6 grams of protein, 150 milligrams of calcium and 180 milligrams of sodium.

Natural Cheddar Cheese, Milk Chocolate Chunks, Raspberry Flavored Dried Cranberries, & Graham Crackers with 170 calories, 6 grams of protein, 200 milligrams of calcium and 240 milligrams of sodium.

Natural Cheddar Cheese, Sea-Salted Almonds, Raisins, & Greek Yogurt Flavored Drops with 190 calories, 7 grams of protein, 200 milligrams of calcium and 170 milligrams of sodium.

Our tasters enjoyed these as a school snack, quick bite during an athletic game, or as an on-the-go between meal snack.
