Quaker Chewy Granola Bars--Safe Versions
« on: July 16, 2012, 09:26:31 AM »
I just bought two boxes of safe Quaker Chewy Granola Bars.  There's an apple and a berry flavor.  They're made in Canada.  The box looks different than the normal granola bars; the packing has a lunchbox design on it and states that it follows school safe policies.  I found them at my local Target. 
 
DD has had both flavors and has not had a problem. 
 
Just thought I would share.

Thank you Maeve!

I bought 6 boxes yesterday at Target also (on sale for 2 for $4.00).  I wish they would do this with the other flavors too.

They have all of the flavors from Canada. I love the Rocky Road.

Didn't call.  Read the label and they are manufactured in Canada.  We've had the Canadian version of these and they match.

I just noticed them the other day in our Target. They say School something and are in a lunchbox type box. Really excited. But I think the box was labeled US not canada.

I bought the Quaker chewy granola bars. Best berry and amazing apple. Made in Canada. I haven't called. Wish they had the chocolate chip ones.
