SLIM PICKINGS

Fiber One has introduced not just one, but two new products we’ve spotted recently.

(And a few we have yet to find: Fiber One’s new Meal Bars in Chocolate Peanut Butter, Strawberry Greek Yogurt and Dark Chocolate Almond.)

First up: Fiber One Fruit Flavored Snacks. The fruit-flavored, fruit-shaped gummy drops come in boxes of 10 pouches and are available in two varieties: Assorted Fruit and Mixed Berry (made mainly of pear and apple juice). Each pack contains 70 calories and zero fat, 10 carbohydrate, 3 fiber and zero protein grams.

Next up: Fiber One 90Calorie Caramel Sea Salt Bar. This limited-time-only bar is also limited-location-only, sold exclusively at Target (we found it and the fruit snacks at the 420 S. University Ave., Little Rock, store). The mild, soft, baked bar (90 calories and 18 carbohydrate, 5 fiber and zero protein grams) has only the slightest caramel flavor, and no real salt contrast. We prefer the line’s Chocolate Fudge, Lemon, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Coffee Cake and Chocolate Chip Cookie flavors, available anytime, everywhere.
