Nestle Cherry Raisinets
Where purchased: Target
Price: $2.89
Overall rating: 4/5
I'll be honest - I don't have much to add since the last time I posted on the Cranberry Raisinets. But, on my last trip to Target I did finally decide to give these cherry dark chocolate bites a try. As you would expect, they are delicious. More importantly, they ARE a little different from the traditional raisinets. Yes, they still have the same general flavor, but each chocolate-covered cherry is much larger, and the dark chocolate provides a slightly richer flavor. It is a very subtle difference, but it's there!
Really, when choosing any of the Raisinet flavors, you can't go wrong. I personally have a small preference for the dark chocolate varieties. And, on their own, I think I like the big cherry raisinets, but mixed into a trail mix or something I think I would prefer the smaller dark chocolate raisinets.
So, just in case you thought you were missing something exciting and unique... you really aren't. Something tasty? Of course! But I won't insist that your life is incomplete without trying them.

I thought the combination of a cherry and dark chocolate was very tasty to me. Fortunately, Bridget limited me to just 5 of them, or I would have been tempted to eat 'em by the handful. Making a trail mix is probably the way to go to off set and complement the sweet taste. If you're one of those people who just needs a "little something" to satisfy your sweet craving, and can limit yourself (Yeah for you!), this could work.
ReplyDeleteOn another note, tried the almond butter and it is a refreshing change from peanut butter. It's taste says, " don't top me with anything, I'm good just as I am."
