1 00:00:00,400 --> 00:00:02,920 Speaker 1: Trail mix is something that we used to only take hiking, 2 00:00:03,000 --> 00:00:06,120 Speaker 1: but now we see popping up in lunchboxes on road 3 00:00:06,160 --> 00:00:09,160 Speaker 1: troops and even coming with us to the movies. Hi, 4 00:00:09,200 --> 00:00:11,480 Speaker 1: I'm leannlud and I'm cz Burrow, and it's two of 5 00:00:11,480 --> 00:00:15,440 Speaker 1: Australia's leading dieticians. We bring the Nutrition Couch product review. 6 00:00:15,720 --> 00:00:18,319 Speaker 1: We'll weekly chat on new products and old favorites that 7 00:00:18,360 --> 00:00:21,439 Speaker 1: you can find right here in Aussie's supermarkets. And in 8 00:00:21,520 --> 00:00:24,599 Speaker 1: today's episodes easy we chat through three different types of 9 00:00:24,760 --> 00:00:28,319 Speaker 1: trail mixes available in our supermarkets. And while we do 10 00:00:28,600 --> 00:00:31,760 Speaker 1: and don't recommend each one, so I thought we'd start 11 00:00:31,800 --> 00:00:33,720 Speaker 1: with a nice home rand one. So the wool Wears 12 00:00:33,880 --> 00:00:36,600 Speaker 1: trail Mix. It's the Hikers trail Mix four hundred grams. 13 00:00:36,600 --> 00:00:39,800 Speaker 1: It's quite a big bag. It's seven dollars for the bag, 14 00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:42,560 Speaker 1: which brings it down to about seventeen fifty per kilo. 15 00:00:42,920 --> 00:00:44,839 Speaker 1: That'll make sense when we reference the other two that 16 00:00:44,840 --> 00:00:47,000 Speaker 1: we've chosen as well. So when we look at the 17 00:00:47,159 --> 00:00:51,400 Speaker 1: ingredients on the Willwors trail Mix, it is roasted and 18 00:00:51,479 --> 00:00:54,520 Speaker 1: salted nuts with peanuts being nineteen percent of that mix, 19 00:00:54,640 --> 00:00:56,960 Speaker 1: cashews almonds with a little bit of salt and peanut 20 00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:00,400 Speaker 1: oil in the nut mix, followed by sultanas which the 21 00:01:00,440 --> 00:01:03,600 Speaker 1: sultanas have sultanas and some flour oil. Followed by apricots, 22 00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:07,000 Speaker 1: which are more like those they're not true dried apricots. 23 00:01:07,000 --> 00:01:08,920 Speaker 1: I think they're more like those apricot pieces because they've 24 00:01:08,920 --> 00:01:12,280 Speaker 1: got apricot rice flour, some preservatives, and some sugar in there. 25 00:01:12,560 --> 00:01:15,560 Speaker 1: Banana chips, which are banana coconut oil, sugar, and some 26 00:01:15,680 --> 00:01:18,600 Speaker 1: natural banana flavors. So I've actually added banana flavor into 27 00:01:18,600 --> 00:01:22,800 Speaker 1: the banana chips, which is interesting, followed by pepitas, cranberries, 28 00:01:22,880 --> 00:01:26,399 Speaker 1: milk chocolate, which is made up of sugar, hydrogenized palm, 29 00:01:26,600 --> 00:01:30,040 Speaker 1: pernal oil, milk solids and a mulsifiers, cocoa powder and 30 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:32,839 Speaker 1: natural vanilla flavor. That's all within that milk chocolate mix. 31 00:01:33,200 --> 00:01:35,600 Speaker 1: So it's quite a long ingredient list for a fruit 32 00:01:35,600 --> 00:01:38,560 Speaker 1: and nut mixed sushi, which is quite interesting. And then 33 00:01:38,600 --> 00:01:41,759 Speaker 1: of course the allergens in there are peanuts, trenuts, soy, milk, 34 00:01:41,840 --> 00:01:44,880 Speaker 1: and sulfites as well, So not great from an allergy 35 00:01:44,959 --> 00:01:48,880 Speaker 1: perspective for a lot of people. Maybe gonna give it 36 00:01:48,880 --> 00:01:50,760 Speaker 1: about a four or five out of ten. I don't 37 00:01:50,840 --> 00:01:52,440 Speaker 1: love it just because I look at the ingredient list 38 00:01:52,520 --> 00:01:54,120 Speaker 1: and I just think there's a lot of additives in 39 00:01:54,160 --> 00:01:57,040 Speaker 1: there for something that should be basically just fruit, nuts 40 00:01:57,080 --> 00:01:57,600 Speaker 1: and seeds. 41 00:01:57,680 --> 00:02:00,440 Speaker 2: Really well, it turns out a serve. A third of 42 00:02:00,440 --> 00:02:02,880 Speaker 2: it ends up being sugar. So I think that because 43 00:02:02,920 --> 00:02:05,040 Speaker 2: of the nature what it looks like, trail mix has 44 00:02:05,040 --> 00:02:08,639 Speaker 2: traditionally always been thought of a very healthy snack, as 45 00:02:08,680 --> 00:02:11,880 Speaker 2: has dried fruits. Now, the things that I'm looking for 46 00:02:12,040 --> 00:02:14,359 Speaker 2: and the thing that turned me off this straight away, 47 00:02:14,639 --> 00:02:17,080 Speaker 2: and I'm with you in terms of the rating. First 48 00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:20,079 Speaker 2: of all, the first ingredient at nineteen percent is peanuts. Now, 49 00:02:20,120 --> 00:02:22,640 Speaker 2: peanuts are nutritious, but they don't have the density of 50 00:02:22,720 --> 00:02:26,840 Speaker 2: nutrition that nuts like almonds, walnuts, cashews do. So the 51 00:02:26,880 --> 00:02:29,160 Speaker 2: fact that that's the bulk of it straightaway tells me 52 00:02:29,200 --> 00:02:31,600 Speaker 2: that it's sort of using it as a filler. And 53 00:02:31,639 --> 00:02:33,600 Speaker 2: then there's a fair whack of sultanas in there, which 54 00:02:33,639 --> 00:02:37,839 Speaker 2: are concentrated fruits sugar as is their apricot, and yeah, 55 00:02:37,840 --> 00:02:40,520 Speaker 2: there's about six or seven different types of sugars going 56 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:43,720 Speaker 2: through that product on top of it, which basically gives 57 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:46,079 Speaker 2: you per thirty grands and Let's be honestly, I'm like, 58 00:02:46,160 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 2: thirty grams of trail mix is tiny. What would it 59 00:02:48,880 --> 00:02:51,080 Speaker 2: be like two match box worth, Like we're talking a 60 00:02:51,120 --> 00:02:52,119 Speaker 2: tiny handful. 61 00:02:52,040 --> 00:02:53,040 Speaker 1: Not even a handble hair. 62 00:02:53,200 --> 00:02:55,680 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's tiny because of the density of the nuts 63 00:02:55,680 --> 00:02:57,880 Speaker 2: and then the dried fruit. So you're getting over one 64 00:02:57,960 --> 00:03:00,240 Speaker 2: hundred and fifty almost one hundred and fifty calories that 65 00:03:00,280 --> 00:03:03,000 Speaker 2: tiny amount. You're only getting three grams of protein, which 66 00:03:03,040 --> 00:03:06,120 Speaker 2: is really low for a product that should be higher 67 00:03:06,160 --> 00:03:08,720 Speaker 2: in protein, particularly if it's got a nut or legume base. 68 00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:11,720 Speaker 2: And the massive amount of sugars you know, as I said, 69 00:03:11,760 --> 00:03:14,120 Speaker 2: a third of it ten grams of sugars. Now some 70 00:03:14,240 --> 00:03:17,000 Speaker 2: is naturally occurring, but some is certainly added. And again 71 00:03:17,080 --> 00:03:19,600 Speaker 2: two point two grams of fiber per serve is low 72 00:03:19,919 --> 00:03:23,600 Speaker 2: for a whole food product. So the issue I generally 73 00:03:23,600 --> 00:03:26,360 Speaker 2: have with trail mix and why don't generally prescribe it 74 00:03:26,360 --> 00:03:30,320 Speaker 2: for my clients, But was excited to see some new 75 00:03:30,400 --> 00:03:34,040 Speaker 2: sort of pro portion control varieties in supermarkets recently, was 76 00:03:34,080 --> 00:03:35,920 Speaker 2: that it's just so easy to overeat and everyone thinks 77 00:03:35,920 --> 00:03:37,720 Speaker 2: it's healthy. They just put it into a container in 78 00:03:37,760 --> 00:03:40,680 Speaker 2: the kitchen and keep grabbing it, and it's literally hundreds 79 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,720 Speaker 2: of extra calories that slip in with no full factor 80 00:03:42,760 --> 00:03:44,360 Speaker 2: because you can just munch through that all day. It's 81 00:03:44,360 --> 00:03:46,600 Speaker 2: like Eminem's, you know, you just keep going pringles. Once 82 00:03:46,600 --> 00:03:49,080 Speaker 2: you pop, you can't stop. So yeah, I would certainly 83 00:03:49,160 --> 00:03:50,960 Speaker 2: not be recommending this one, especially with the. 84 00:03:51,000 --> 00:03:53,200 Speaker 1: Chocolate in it, like it makes it very emorish, And 85 00:03:53,280 --> 00:03:55,000 Speaker 1: just going back to the nutrition panel, I realized I 86 00:03:55,040 --> 00:03:56,760 Speaker 1: forgot to do that, so thank you for running us 87 00:03:56,760 --> 00:03:59,440 Speaker 1: through that. The fat title was seven point four grams 88 00:03:59,480 --> 00:04:01,920 Speaker 1: or two point four being saturated, so it's not all 89 00:04:02,000 --> 00:04:03,960 Speaker 1: the healthy, good fats from the nuts and seeds that 90 00:04:03,960 --> 00:04:05,680 Speaker 1: we would like to see as well. There's a little 91 00:04:05,720 --> 00:04:07,720 Speaker 1: bit of saturated fat in there as well. And the 92 00:04:07,800 --> 00:04:10,480 Speaker 1: car portioned total was thirteen grams with ten of that 93 00:04:10,520 --> 00:04:13,440 Speaker 1: being sugar, so quite a high sugar product, which is 94 00:04:13,440 --> 00:04:16,560 Speaker 1: why it's so easy to overreach. So like, you're not 95 00:04:16,600 --> 00:04:18,280 Speaker 1: the biggest fan of trail mix, and. 96 00:04:18,240 --> 00:04:23,240 Speaker 2: It's expensively and seventeen bucks a kilo that is really expensive. 97 00:04:22,880 --> 00:04:25,400 Speaker 1: So yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of it, particularly 98 00:04:25,640 --> 00:04:29,000 Speaker 1: this mix itself. But you know, DRAMs absolutely has a 99 00:04:29,040 --> 00:04:30,640 Speaker 1: time and place if you're going out and you're doing 100 00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:33,480 Speaker 1: a six eight ten hour high cor you're on your 101 00:04:33,480 --> 00:04:34,960 Speaker 1: bike and you're a bit of a trithlete, Like if 102 00:04:34,960 --> 00:04:37,960 Speaker 1: you're an athlete with high energy needs, it's great. If 103 00:04:37,960 --> 00:04:40,520 Speaker 1: you're a growing child or toddler, it's great, but for 104 00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:43,159 Speaker 1: most adults. I actually can't remember the last time I 105 00:04:43,160 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 1: wrote troumix into a meal plan, Susie, and I'm sure 106 00:04:45,120 --> 00:04:45,800 Speaker 1: you're the same as me. 107 00:04:45,920 --> 00:04:47,400 Speaker 2: Well, I can't remember the last time I knew someone 108 00:04:47,400 --> 00:04:49,080 Speaker 2: who went for an eight or ten hour high either 109 00:04:50,760 --> 00:04:54,479 Speaker 2: maybe one or two I have occasionally there's big bull 110 00:04:54,560 --> 00:04:56,599 Speaker 2: day ones, but no, I do have some very active 111 00:04:56,600 --> 00:04:59,560 Speaker 2: clients that absolutely were I would recommend something like this, 112 00:04:59,640 --> 00:05:01,480 Speaker 2: but even I think I'd rather them go for it 113 00:05:01,560 --> 00:05:03,760 Speaker 2: is a handful of normal nuts, a peanut, but a 114 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:06,240 Speaker 2: sandwich and a piece of fruit and amuseally, but that's 115 00:05:06,240 --> 00:05:07,800 Speaker 2: generally what I'll get them to take with them because 116 00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:10,159 Speaker 2: as you said, it's actually quite expensive, like it's not 117 00:05:10,240 --> 00:05:13,600 Speaker 2: something that's very affordable at the moment. So anyway, we'll 118 00:05:13,600 --> 00:05:15,760 Speaker 2: bang on about that a little bit later. But next 119 00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,719 Speaker 2: one we've got, I just wanted to go the coal's 120 00:05:17,800 --> 00:05:20,279 Speaker 2: brand in comparison, so that one was the wool worst 121 00:05:20,400 --> 00:05:23,479 Speaker 2: Hyper's trail mix four hundred grams. The Coals one is 122 00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 2: the coal's fruit and nut trail mix at four hundred 123 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,599 Speaker 2: grams as well, So this one's four dollars for the bag, 124 00:05:28,720 --> 00:05:31,560 Speaker 2: so the same amount compared to the woolworst one seven 125 00:05:31,600 --> 00:05:34,320 Speaker 2: dollars a bag, so quite a difference per price points. 126 00:05:34,360 --> 00:05:36,479 Speaker 2: It works out to be ten dollars per kilo. So 127 00:05:36,520 --> 00:05:38,920 Speaker 2: I thought that was quite interesting considering they're both, you know, 128 00:05:38,960 --> 00:05:41,360 Speaker 2: technically the home brand variety of that. 129 00:05:41,839 --> 00:05:43,839 Speaker 1: We look at the ingredients. The top ingredient for the 130 00:05:43,839 --> 00:05:47,200 Speaker 1: coals one is dried fruit forty six percent, so quite 131 00:05:47,200 --> 00:05:49,359 Speaker 1: a lot of dried fruit. Nearly half that is dried fruit. 132 00:05:49,640 --> 00:05:53,159 Speaker 1: And in the dried fruit, we've got raisins, cranberries, sugar oil, 133 00:05:53,279 --> 00:05:55,520 Speaker 1: cottonseed oil, and granola oil, and quite a lot of 134 00:05:55,520 --> 00:05:58,440 Speaker 1: different oals, plus seeds at thirty percent. We've got a 135 00:05:58,480 --> 00:06:00,400 Speaker 1: mix of some flour and for pito seed, and we've 136 00:06:00,400 --> 00:06:03,240 Speaker 1: got nuts at twenty four percent, almonds and cashews. I 137 00:06:03,240 --> 00:06:05,960 Speaker 1: guess a cleaner ingredient list from this perspective, like it's 138 00:06:05,960 --> 00:06:08,400 Speaker 1: basically just some dried fruits and nuts and some seeds, 139 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:11,479 Speaker 1: and then going through the nutrition panels, so serving size 140 00:06:11,520 --> 00:06:13,840 Speaker 1: is thirty grams, so very the same size as a 141 00:06:13,880 --> 00:06:17,000 Speaker 1: wool West one, very similar energy wise, just shy have 142 00:06:17,040 --> 00:06:19,839 Speaker 1: six hundred kilodeeles, which is roughly about one hundred and 143 00:06:19,839 --> 00:06:23,000 Speaker 1: forty five calories, four point five grams of protein, so 144 00:06:23,080 --> 00:06:26,200 Speaker 1: higher protein than the wool West one, eight point six 145 00:06:26,279 --> 00:06:28,800 Speaker 1: grams of fat with only less than one gram of 146 00:06:28,800 --> 00:06:31,640 Speaker 1: that being saturated fat, so a much better fat profile 147 00:06:31,680 --> 00:06:34,680 Speaker 1: in this one. Ten grams of carbohydrate with eight of 148 00:06:34,720 --> 00:06:37,520 Speaker 1: that being sugar, two point four grams of fiber, and 149 00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:41,040 Speaker 1: point seven to grams of sodium, so basically don't even 150 00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:43,800 Speaker 1: more about the sodium in the product. So I think 151 00:06:43,839 --> 00:06:46,960 Speaker 1: this for a traumic SUSI is a much better option. 152 00:06:47,040 --> 00:06:49,280 Speaker 1: Not only is it better price wise, like it's much 153 00:06:49,279 --> 00:06:52,800 Speaker 1: more budget friendly. The nutrition analysis is far better as well, 154 00:06:52,880 --> 00:06:55,640 Speaker 1: a little bit less sugar, less saturated fat, a little 155 00:06:55,680 --> 00:06:58,120 Speaker 1: bit more protein, a little bit more dietary fiber as well, 156 00:06:58,160 --> 00:07:01,640 Speaker 1: so nutritionally it's more superior. Budget wise, it's more superior, 157 00:07:01,680 --> 00:07:04,560 Speaker 1: and the ingredient list is as far less than what 158 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,640 Speaker 1: the ingredient list is on the warl worst one, So 159 00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:09,760 Speaker 1: for me, this definitely takes the price so far. I 160 00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:10,080 Speaker 1: like it. 161 00:07:10,080 --> 00:07:11,960 Speaker 2: It's clearly, and you know what I mean. It is 162 00:07:11,960 --> 00:07:13,800 Speaker 2: what it is. You've got a certain amount of dried fruit, 163 00:07:13,880 --> 00:07:16,280 Speaker 2: which is a trail mix in terms of energy requirements 164 00:07:16,320 --> 00:07:19,200 Speaker 2: for people who are doing hikes or endurance rides, et cetera. 165 00:07:19,640 --> 00:07:22,160 Speaker 2: So and they're stating what it is. I like the 166 00:07:22,200 --> 00:07:25,120 Speaker 2: seed proportions amazing, Like thirty percent seeds is really good 167 00:07:25,160 --> 00:07:27,680 Speaker 2: quality product. And nuts. I'd love the nuts to be 168 00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:29,560 Speaker 2: a little bit higher at twenty four, but they're still 169 00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:30,360 Speaker 2: pretty good. 170 00:07:30,160 --> 00:07:32,040 Speaker 1: And they're just almonds and cashews. There's no peanuts in 171 00:07:32,080 --> 00:07:33,800 Speaker 1: their ears, so they're using good quality nuts. 172 00:07:33,920 --> 00:07:36,280 Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, one hundred percent. The five is still a 173 00:07:36,280 --> 00:07:39,320 Speaker 2: bit lower, you know, two point four grams per thirty grams. 174 00:07:39,320 --> 00:07:42,080 Speaker 2: I'd love to see it up around three to five sugars. 175 00:07:42,120 --> 00:07:43,560 Speaker 2: You know you are going to get sugars at eight 176 00:07:43,560 --> 00:07:47,800 Speaker 2: grams from dried fruit. But the saturated fat's very very low, 177 00:07:47,880 --> 00:07:49,800 Speaker 2: which is as strong it's saying that the fat in 178 00:07:49,800 --> 00:07:52,240 Speaker 2: that product is naturally occurring coming from the nuts. It's 179 00:07:52,240 --> 00:07:54,680 Speaker 2: an energy dense food, absolutely, but for those who need 180 00:07:54,720 --> 00:07:56,440 Speaker 2: it can be a very smart choice and for the 181 00:07:56,480 --> 00:07:58,640 Speaker 2: pricely and that's always half what the Woolies one is 182 00:07:58,680 --> 00:08:01,840 Speaker 2: being advertised or Thorry being start with a much cleaner, 183 00:08:01,840 --> 00:08:04,920 Speaker 2: stronger ingredient list. So this is certainly far, fast superior 184 00:08:05,000 --> 00:08:05,920 Speaker 2: to the Woolies. 185 00:08:05,960 --> 00:08:08,640 Speaker 1: Well, absolutely yeah, we couldn't agree more. And then our 186 00:08:08,720 --> 00:08:10,520 Speaker 1: final product, we thought, this is one of the new 187 00:08:10,640 --> 00:08:13,600 Speaker 1: ones in the market, Susie. It's the Harvest box of 188 00:08:13,760 --> 00:08:17,000 Speaker 1: the big big box power Mix, so it's Harvest Box 189 00:08:17,120 --> 00:08:18,800 Speaker 1: is a brand and the Power Mix is the type 190 00:08:18,800 --> 00:08:21,239 Speaker 1: that we've chosen. Now this one I didn't realize, Susie. 191 00:08:21,280 --> 00:08:23,440 Speaker 1: I just picked one online. It's just the full box, 192 00:08:23,440 --> 00:08:25,040 Speaker 1: so it's two hudred and twenty grams for the box. 193 00:08:25,280 --> 00:08:27,240 Speaker 1: You said that they actually come in little portion size 194 00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:29,400 Speaker 1: and mounts as well, which I'll let you discuss in 195 00:08:29,440 --> 00:08:32,120 Speaker 1: a moment, But the two hundred and twenty gram boxes 196 00:08:32,160 --> 00:08:33,959 Speaker 1: as so on Sourd this week. It coals for three 197 00:08:33,960 --> 00:08:37,520 Speaker 1: p forty five. Normally it's about seven dollars for the 198 00:08:37,520 --> 00:08:40,160 Speaker 1: two twenty grams, so definitely the most expensive out of 199 00:08:40,240 --> 00:08:42,520 Speaker 1: all of them, sort of double the price point of 200 00:08:42,600 --> 00:08:45,120 Speaker 1: the other two for sort of half of what you're getting. 201 00:08:45,360 --> 00:08:47,840 Speaker 1: But let's go through the ingredients in the power mix. 202 00:08:47,960 --> 00:08:50,520 Speaker 1: So it's almonds as a top ingredient, which we love 203 00:08:50,600 --> 00:08:52,680 Speaker 1: to see a good quality nut as a first ingredient, 204 00:08:53,000 --> 00:08:55,520 Speaker 1: followed by flame raisins, which have a little bit of 205 00:08:55,600 --> 00:08:59,240 Speaker 1: vegetable oil in them, followed by Cranberry's milk chocolate which 206 00:08:59,360 --> 00:09:02,040 Speaker 1: contains cane sugar, four cream, milk powder, cocoa butter and 207 00:09:02,120 --> 00:09:04,320 Speaker 1: cocoa mass. So even just the quality of that milk 208 00:09:04,400 --> 00:09:06,599 Speaker 1: chocolate is far better than the milk chocolate that was 209 00:09:06,640 --> 00:09:09,680 Speaker 1: in the Woolworst blend with a little bit of a mulcivies. 210 00:09:09,720 --> 00:09:13,959 Speaker 1: Followed by some macadamias, sunflower seeds, pistachios, and pepeitas. So 211 00:09:14,200 --> 00:09:16,600 Speaker 1: pretty you know, pretty clean for an ingredient. Let's yes, 212 00:09:16,679 --> 00:09:18,800 Speaker 1: we have the added milk chocolate in there. Some people 213 00:09:18,840 --> 00:09:21,120 Speaker 1: would say that that makes the product. I would agree. 214 00:09:21,920 --> 00:09:23,559 Speaker 1: It's always nice when you see a little bit chocolate 215 00:09:23,600 --> 00:09:25,520 Speaker 1: and some choil mix, but you know, pretty good. You know, 216 00:09:25,559 --> 00:09:27,480 Speaker 1: they've got some good quality nuts, and there's some almonds 217 00:09:27,520 --> 00:09:30,880 Speaker 1: and macadamias, good quality seeds. We've got some flowers, pepeteras. 218 00:09:30,880 --> 00:09:33,400 Speaker 1: We've also got some pistachios which are quite expensive as well, 219 00:09:33,400 --> 00:09:36,040 Speaker 1: which might just explain the price point as well. So 220 00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:37,320 Speaker 1: I like that mix. 221 00:09:37,480 --> 00:09:39,760 Speaker 2: What I noticed actually and why we discussed or decided 222 00:09:39,800 --> 00:09:42,640 Speaker 2: having this product in here today was that I had 223 00:09:42,720 --> 00:09:45,720 Speaker 2: noticed in the I actually went to Woolies and found 224 00:09:45,960 --> 00:09:49,040 Speaker 2: actually was a cold. Now Coals have got several new 225 00:09:49,640 --> 00:09:54,480 Speaker 2: boxes of portion control trail mixes, and they're actually across 226 00:09:54,600 --> 00:09:57,400 Speaker 2: the board quite strong, so have a look. They're in 227 00:09:57,520 --> 00:10:00,400 Speaker 2: the baking section actually in a funny place we don't 228 00:10:00,400 --> 00:10:02,839 Speaker 2: think of them, but really smart mix of product. And 229 00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:07,640 Speaker 2: I also like this Harvest Box brand. So you can 230 00:10:07,720 --> 00:10:11,360 Speaker 2: buy them in forty five gram bags liam which is 231 00:10:11,400 --> 00:10:13,360 Speaker 2: a really decent serving size, so it comes in an 232 00:10:13,360 --> 00:10:15,679 Speaker 2: over two hundred calories per serve, but forty five is 233 00:10:15,720 --> 00:10:18,560 Speaker 2: quite significant, so that's a really decent kind of handful. 234 00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:21,280 Speaker 2: You certainly feel quite satisfied after that, and that will 235 00:10:21,320 --> 00:10:24,439 Speaker 2: give you about five grams of protein. The fat is 236 00:10:24,600 --> 00:10:27,079 Speaker 2: not low, almost fifteen grams per serve, so a third 237 00:10:27,120 --> 00:10:28,959 Speaker 2: of it is fat, but the saturated is coming in 238 00:10:29,080 --> 00:10:31,160 Speaker 2: very low at two point two, so it's not too bad. 239 00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:33,440 Speaker 2: And then you're getting, of course some of the fat 240 00:10:33,480 --> 00:10:35,439 Speaker 2: from the nut base, which i'll talk about in a second. 241 00:10:35,760 --> 00:10:38,760 Speaker 2: Carbo hydrate's seventeen point three, but sugar's fourteen point four, 242 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:40,720 Speaker 2: so that's where the chocolate's coming through a little bit. 243 00:10:40,760 --> 00:10:42,760 Speaker 2: It does have a decent amount of sugar perserve, and 244 00:10:42,880 --> 00:10:45,000 Speaker 2: it's getting to the three grams of dietary fiber, which 245 00:10:45,040 --> 00:10:47,640 Speaker 2: Leanne and I like. It's almond's first, followed by the 246 00:10:47,720 --> 00:10:50,480 Speaker 2: raisins as you said, and then I think some of 247 00:10:50,559 --> 00:10:54,040 Speaker 2: the fat is coming from those macadamia, sunflowercis, pistachios, per peter, 248 00:10:54,160 --> 00:10:57,120 Speaker 2: so all really good profile of fats too. So I 249 00:10:57,240 --> 00:10:59,680 Speaker 2: think this would sit for mean because it's not overly 250 00:10:59,720 --> 00:11:01,600 Speaker 2: in it expensive is that? How much is it coming 251 00:11:01,640 --> 00:11:04,880 Speaker 2: in at these about fifteen sixteen dollars a kilo, Yeah, 252 00:11:04,960 --> 00:11:07,160 Speaker 2: so not inexpensive. But what I think the message is 253 00:11:07,200 --> 00:11:09,480 Speaker 2: I would give this one. Say, I'd give the coals one, 254 00:11:09,559 --> 00:11:12,839 Speaker 2: say eight maybe, and then I give this one a seven. 255 00:11:13,800 --> 00:11:15,360 Speaker 2: But I think they're worth having a look at, and 256 00:11:15,360 --> 00:11:17,719 Speaker 2: I think that they're really smart portion controlled snacks for 257 00:11:17,800 --> 00:11:19,839 Speaker 2: the afternoon. They're fantastic when you add them to some 258 00:11:19,960 --> 00:11:23,200 Speaker 2: protein yogurt as a hit of both portion control nuts 259 00:11:23,240 --> 00:11:26,640 Speaker 2: and taste and crunch whole food. But really, I think 260 00:11:26,720 --> 00:11:28,480 Speaker 2: the message from Leanna and I today is you want 261 00:11:28,520 --> 00:11:30,360 Speaker 2: ones that have got at least three if not closer 262 00:11:30,400 --> 00:11:32,960 Speaker 2: to five grams of protein per serve and at least 263 00:11:33,000 --> 00:11:35,400 Speaker 2: three grams of dietary fiber per serve for us to 264 00:11:35,480 --> 00:11:39,199 Speaker 2: really like it as a balanced, filling snack choice. And 265 00:11:39,360 --> 00:11:42,200 Speaker 2: of course you've got to be really mindful of the portions, 266 00:11:42,480 --> 00:11:45,720 Speaker 2: which is why I personally like the portion control individual packs, 267 00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:47,720 Speaker 2: So check them out of coals in the baking section. 268 00:11:48,360 --> 00:11:50,160 Speaker 1: Definitely, I agree with you. I would sort of give 269 00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:52,280 Speaker 1: it around a six or seven. I think the ingredients 270 00:11:52,320 --> 00:11:54,520 Speaker 1: are quite good that that profile, and some of those 271 00:11:54,600 --> 00:11:57,199 Speaker 1: ingredients have chosen, like it's nice to see some maceadaemians 272 00:11:57,240 --> 00:12:00,000 Speaker 1: in there, some pistachios and compitas. They're not typically thinks 273 00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:02,120 Speaker 1: you see in a nut blend. They typically put a 274 00:12:02,240 --> 00:12:05,280 Speaker 1: ton of peanuts because they're really cheap, and almonds typically 275 00:12:05,360 --> 00:12:07,160 Speaker 1: as well, which yes, this one has almonds, but it's 276 00:12:07,200 --> 00:12:09,360 Speaker 1: got a nice sort of more diversity of some nuts 277 00:12:09,400 --> 00:12:12,040 Speaker 1: and seeds in there too. And let's you know, let's 278 00:12:12,120 --> 00:12:13,920 Speaker 1: be real here, it does have added chocolate as well, 279 00:12:14,000 --> 00:12:16,040 Speaker 1: so just being really conscious of that that that's sort 280 00:12:16,040 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 1: of one of those discretionary foods that we're adding into 281 00:12:18,760 --> 00:12:20,079 Speaker 1: our diet. So if you're going to have, you know, 282 00:12:20,160 --> 00:12:22,960 Speaker 1: some chocolate and neutral mix regularly. Probably not a great 283 00:12:22,960 --> 00:12:25,679 Speaker 1: idea to be having biscuits, cakes, cookies, ice cream on 284 00:12:25,800 --> 00:12:27,920 Speaker 1: top of that as well. So just be conscious that 285 00:12:28,040 --> 00:12:31,280 Speaker 1: some of these little things do sneak in sometimes masquerading 286 00:12:31,320 --> 00:12:34,360 Speaker 1: as healthy products as well. And particularly be just conscious 287 00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:36,800 Speaker 1: if you are giving these to kids regularly in their lunchboxes, 288 00:12:36,840 --> 00:12:39,280 Speaker 1: you are regularly adding in a lot of added sugar 289 00:12:39,360 --> 00:12:41,199 Speaker 1: into their diet as well. So not that that's a 290 00:12:41,240 --> 00:12:43,559 Speaker 1: bad thing, but I think that the portion and the 291 00:12:43,640 --> 00:12:45,959 Speaker 1: amount or the frequency of how often you do these 292 00:12:46,040 --> 00:12:48,520 Speaker 1: things just needs to be sort of taken into consideration 293 00:12:48,640 --> 00:12:49,000 Speaker 1: as well. 294 00:12:49,320 --> 00:12:49,520 Speaker 2: True. 295 00:12:49,559 --> 00:12:51,599 Speaker 1: True, all right, well, al Susy.
