WEBVTT - TNC Review: Trail Mixes

0:00:00.400 --> 0:00:02.920
<v Speaker 1>Trail mix is something that we used to only take hiking,

0:00:03.000 --> 0:00:06.120
<v Speaker 1>but now we see popping up in lunchboxes on road

0:00:06.160 --> 0:00:09.160
<v Speaker 1>troops and even coming with us to the movies. Hi,

0:00:09.200 --> 0:00:11.480
<v Speaker 1>I'm leannlud and I'm cz Burrow, and it's two of

0:00:11.480 --> 0:00:15.440
<v Speaker 1>Australia's leading dieticians. We bring the Nutrition Couch product review.

0:00:15.720 --> 0:00:18.319
<v Speaker 1>We'll weekly chat on new products and old favorites that

0:00:18.360 --> 0:00:21.439
<v Speaker 1>you can find right here in Aussie's supermarkets. And in

0:00:21.520 --> 0:00:24.599
<v Speaker 1>today's episodes easy we chat through three different types of

0:00:24.760 --> 0:00:28.319
<v Speaker 1>trail mixes available in our supermarkets. And while we do

0:00:28.600 --> 0:00:31.760
<v Speaker 1>and don't recommend each one, so I thought we'd start

0:00:31.800 --> 0:00:33.720
<v Speaker 1>with a nice home rand one. So the wool Wears

0:00:33.880 --> 0:00:36.600
<v Speaker 1>trail Mix. It's the Hikers trail Mix four hundred grams.

0:00:36.600 --> 0:00:39.800
<v Speaker 1>It's quite a big bag. It's seven dollars for the bag,

0:00:39.840 --> 0:00:42.560
<v Speaker 1>which brings it down to about seventeen fifty per kilo.

0:00:42.920 --> 0:00:44.839
<v Speaker 1>That'll make sense when we reference the other two that

0:00:44.840 --> 0:00:47.000
<v Speaker 1>we've chosen as well. So when we look at the

0:00:47.159 --> 0:00:51.400
<v Speaker 1>ingredients on the Willwors trail Mix, it is roasted and

0:00:51.479 --> 0:00:54.520
<v Speaker 1>salted nuts with peanuts being nineteen percent of that mix,

0:00:54.640 --> 0:00:56.960
<v Speaker 1>cashews almonds with a little bit of salt and peanut

0:00:56.960 --> 0:01:00.400
<v Speaker 1>oil in the nut mix, followed by sultanas which the

0:01:00.440 --> 0:01:03.600
<v Speaker 1>sultanas have sultanas and some flour oil. Followed by apricots,

0:01:03.600 --> 0:01:07.000
<v Speaker 1>which are more like those they're not true dried apricots.

0:01:07.000 --> 0:01:08.920
<v Speaker 1>I think they're more like those apricot pieces because they've

0:01:08.920 --> 0:01:12.280
<v Speaker 1>got apricot rice flour, some preservatives, and some sugar in there.

0:01:12.560 --> 0:01:15.560
<v Speaker 1>Banana chips, which are banana coconut oil, sugar, and some

0:01:15.680 --> 0:01:18.600
<v Speaker 1>natural banana flavors. So I've actually added banana flavor into

0:01:18.600 --> 0:01:22.800
<v Speaker 1>the banana chips, which is interesting, followed by pepitas, cranberries,

0:01:22.880 --> 0:01:26.399
<v Speaker 1>milk chocolate, which is made up of sugar, hydrogenized palm,

0:01:26.600 --> 0:01:30.040
<v Speaker 1>pernal oil, milk solids and a mulsifiers, cocoa powder and

0:01:30.120 --> 0:01:32.839
<v Speaker 1>natural vanilla flavor. That's all within that milk chocolate mix.

0:01:33.200 --> 0:01:35.600
<v Speaker 1>So it's quite a long ingredient list for a fruit

0:01:35.600 --> 0:01:38.560
<v Speaker 1>and nut mixed sushi, which is quite interesting. And then

0:01:38.600 --> 0:01:41.759
<v Speaker 1>of course the allergens in there are peanuts, trenuts, soy, milk,

0:01:41.840 --> 0:01:44.880
<v Speaker 1>and sulfites as well, So not great from an allergy

0:01:44.959 --> 0:01:48.880
<v Speaker 1>perspective for a lot of people. Maybe gonna give it

0:01:48.880 --> 0:01:50.760
<v Speaker 1>about a four or five out of ten. I don't

0:01:50.840 --> 0:01:52.440
<v Speaker 1>love it just because I look at the ingredient list

0:01:52.520 --> 0:01:54.120
<v Speaker 1>and I just think there's a lot of additives in

0:01:54.160 --> 0:01:57.040
<v Speaker 1>there for something that should be basically just fruit, nuts

0:01:57.080 --> 0:01:57.600
<v Speaker 1>and seeds.

0:01:57.680 --> 0:02:00.440
<v Speaker 2>Really well, it turns out a serve. A third of

0:02:00.440 --> 0:02:02.880
<v Speaker 2>it ends up being sugar. So I think that because

0:02:02.920 --> 0:02:05.040
<v Speaker 2>of the nature what it looks like, trail mix has

0:02:05.040 --> 0:02:08.639
<v Speaker 2>traditionally always been thought of a very healthy snack, as

0:02:08.680 --> 0:02:11.880
<v Speaker 2>has dried fruits. Now, the things that I'm looking for

0:02:12.040 --> 0:02:14.359
<v Speaker 2>and the thing that turned me off this straight away,

0:02:14.639 --> 0:02:17.080
<v Speaker 2>and I'm with you in terms of the rating. First

0:02:17.120 --> 0:02:20.079
<v Speaker 2>of all, the first ingredient at nineteen percent is peanuts. Now,

0:02:20.120 --> 0:02:22.640
<v Speaker 2>peanuts are nutritious, but they don't have the density of

0:02:22.720 --> 0:02:26.840
<v Speaker 2>nutrition that nuts like almonds, walnuts, cashews do. So the

0:02:26.880 --> 0:02:29.160
<v Speaker 2>fact that that's the bulk of it straightaway tells me

0:02:29.200 --> 0:02:31.600
<v Speaker 2>that it's sort of using it as a filler. And

0:02:31.639 --> 0:02:33.600
<v Speaker 2>then there's a fair whack of sultanas in there, which

0:02:33.639 --> 0:02:37.839
<v Speaker 2>are concentrated fruits sugar as is their apricot, and yeah,

0:02:37.840 --> 0:02:40.520
<v Speaker 2>there's about six or seven different types of sugars going

0:02:40.560 --> 0:02:43.720
<v Speaker 2>through that product on top of it, which basically gives

0:02:43.760 --> 0:02:46.079
<v Speaker 2>you per thirty grands and Let's be honestly, I'm like,

0:02:46.160 --> 0:02:48.880
<v Speaker 2>thirty grams of trail mix is tiny. What would it

0:02:48.880 --> 0:02:51.080
<v Speaker 2>be like two match box worth, Like we're talking a

0:02:51.120 --> 0:02:52.119
<v Speaker 2>tiny handful.

0:02:52.040 --> 0:02:53.040
<v Speaker 1>Not even a handble hair.

0:02:53.200 --> 0:02:55.680
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's tiny because of the density of the nuts

0:02:55.680 --> 0:02:57.880
<v Speaker 2>and then the dried fruit. So you're getting over one

0:02:57.960 --> 0:03:00.240
<v Speaker 2>hundred and fifty almost one hundred and fifty calories that

0:03:00.280 --> 0:03:03.000
<v Speaker 2>tiny amount. You're only getting three grams of protein, which

0:03:03.040 --> 0:03:06.120
<v Speaker 2>is really low for a product that should be higher

0:03:06.160 --> 0:03:08.720
<v Speaker 2>in protein, particularly if it's got a nut or legume base.

0:03:09.360 --> 0:03:11.720
<v Speaker 2>And the massive amount of sugars you know, as I said,

0:03:11.760 --> 0:03:14.120
<v Speaker 2>a third of it ten grams of sugars. Now some

0:03:14.240 --> 0:03:17.000
<v Speaker 2>is naturally occurring, but some is certainly added. And again

0:03:17.080 --> 0:03:19.600
<v Speaker 2>two point two grams of fiber per serve is low

0:03:19.919 --> 0:03:23.600
<v Speaker 2>for a whole food product. So the issue I generally

0:03:23.600 --> 0:03:26.360
<v Speaker 2>have with trail mix and why don't generally prescribe it

0:03:26.360 --> 0:03:30.320
<v Speaker 2>for my clients, But was excited to see some new

0:03:30.400 --> 0:03:34.040
<v Speaker 2>sort of pro portion control varieties in supermarkets recently, was

0:03:34.080 --> 0:03:35.920
<v Speaker 2>that it's just so easy to overeat and everyone thinks

0:03:35.920 --> 0:03:37.720
<v Speaker 2>it's healthy. They just put it into a container in

0:03:37.760 --> 0:03:40.680
<v Speaker 2>the kitchen and keep grabbing it, and it's literally hundreds

0:03:40.680 --> 0:03:42.720
<v Speaker 2>of extra calories that slip in with no full factor

0:03:42.760 --> 0:03:44.360
<v Speaker 2>because you can just munch through that all day. It's

0:03:44.360 --> 0:03:46.600
<v Speaker 2>like Eminem's, you know, you just keep going pringles. Once

0:03:46.600 --> 0:03:49.080
<v Speaker 2>you pop, you can't stop. So yeah, I would certainly

0:03:49.160 --> 0:03:50.960
<v Speaker 2>not be recommending this one, especially with the.

0:03:51.000 --> 0:03:53.200
<v Speaker 1>Chocolate in it, like it makes it very emorish, And

0:03:53.280 --> 0:03:55.000
<v Speaker 1>just going back to the nutrition panel, I realized I

0:03:55.040 --> 0:03:56.760
<v Speaker 1>forgot to do that, so thank you for running us

0:03:56.760 --> 0:03:59.440
<v Speaker 1>through that. The fat title was seven point four grams

0:03:59.480 --> 0:04:01.920
<v Speaker 1>or two point four being saturated, so it's not all

0:04:02.000 --> 0:04:03.960
<v Speaker 1>the healthy, good fats from the nuts and seeds that

0:04:03.960 --> 0:04:05.680
<v Speaker 1>we would like to see as well. There's a little

0:04:05.720 --> 0:04:07.720
<v Speaker 1>bit of saturated fat in there as well. And the

0:04:07.800 --> 0:04:10.480
<v Speaker 1>car portioned total was thirteen grams with ten of that

0:04:10.520 --> 0:04:13.440
<v Speaker 1>being sugar, so quite a high sugar product, which is

0:04:13.440 --> 0:04:16.560
<v Speaker 1>why it's so easy to overreach. So like, you're not

0:04:16.600 --> 0:04:18.280
<v Speaker 1>the biggest fan of trail mix, and.

0:04:18.240 --> 0:04:23.240
<v Speaker 2>It's expensively and seventeen bucks a kilo that is really expensive.

0:04:22.880 --> 0:04:25.400
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, I'm not the biggest fan of it, particularly

0:04:25.640 --> 0:04:29.000
<v Speaker 1>this mix itself. But you know, DRAMs absolutely has a

0:04:29.040 --> 0:04:30.640
<v Speaker 1>time and place if you're going out and you're doing

0:04:30.680 --> 0:04:33.480
<v Speaker 1>a six eight ten hour high cor you're on your

0:04:33.480 --> 0:04:34.960
<v Speaker 1>bike and you're a bit of a trithlete, Like if

0:04:34.960 --> 0:04:37.960
<v Speaker 1>you're an athlete with high energy needs, it's great. If

0:04:37.960 --> 0:04:40.520
<v Speaker 1>you're a growing child or toddler, it's great, but for

0:04:40.600 --> 0:04:43.159
<v Speaker 1>most adults. I actually can't remember the last time I

0:04:43.160 --> 0:04:45.080
<v Speaker 1>wrote troumix into a meal plan, Susie, and I'm sure

0:04:45.120 --> 0:04:45.800
<v Speaker 1>you're the same as me.

0:04:45.920 --> 0:04:47.400
<v Speaker 2>Well, I can't remember the last time I knew someone

0:04:47.400 --> 0:04:49.080
<v Speaker 2>who went for an eight or ten hour high either

0:04:50.760 --> 0:04:54.479
<v Speaker 2>maybe one or two I have occasionally there's big bull

0:04:54.560 --> 0:04:56.599
<v Speaker 2>day ones, but no, I do have some very active

0:04:56.600 --> 0:04:59.560
<v Speaker 2>clients that absolutely were I would recommend something like this,

0:04:59.640 --> 0:05:01.480
<v Speaker 2>but even I think I'd rather them go for it

0:05:01.560 --> 0:05:03.760
<v Speaker 2>is a handful of normal nuts, a peanut, but a

0:05:03.800 --> 0:05:06.240
<v Speaker 2>sandwich and a piece of fruit and amuseally, but that's

0:05:06.240 --> 0:05:07.800
<v Speaker 2>generally what I'll get them to take with them because

0:05:07.800 --> 0:05:10.159
<v Speaker 2>as you said, it's actually quite expensive, like it's not

0:05:10.240 --> 0:05:13.600
<v Speaker 2>something that's very affordable at the moment. So anyway, we'll

0:05:13.600 --> 0:05:15.760
<v Speaker 2>bang on about that a little bit later. But next

0:05:15.800 --> 0:05:17.719
<v Speaker 2>one we've got, I just wanted to go the coal's

0:05:17.800 --> 0:05:20.279
<v Speaker 2>brand in comparison, so that one was the wool worst

0:05:20.400 --> 0:05:23.479
<v Speaker 2>Hyper's trail mix four hundred grams. The Coals one is

0:05:23.520 --> 0:05:25.960
<v Speaker 2>the coal's fruit and nut trail mix at four hundred

0:05:25.960 --> 0:05:28.599
<v Speaker 2>grams as well, So this one's four dollars for the bag,

0:05:28.720 --> 0:05:31.560
<v Speaker 2>so the same amount compared to the woolworst one seven

0:05:31.600 --> 0:05:34.320
<v Speaker 2>dollars a bag, so quite a difference per price points.

0:05:34.360 --> 0:05:36.479
<v Speaker 2>It works out to be ten dollars per kilo. So

0:05:36.520 --> 0:05:38.920
<v Speaker 2>I thought that was quite interesting considering they're both, you know,

0:05:38.960 --> 0:05:41.360
<v Speaker 2>technically the home brand variety of that.

0:05:41.839 --> 0:05:43.839
<v Speaker 1>We look at the ingredients. The top ingredient for the

0:05:43.839 --> 0:05:47.200
<v Speaker 1>coals one is dried fruit forty six percent, so quite

0:05:47.200 --> 0:05:49.359
<v Speaker 1>a lot of dried fruit. Nearly half that is dried fruit.

0:05:49.640 --> 0:05:53.159
<v Speaker 1>And in the dried fruit, we've got raisins, cranberries, sugar oil,

0:05:53.279 --> 0:05:55.520
<v Speaker 1>cottonseed oil, and granola oil, and quite a lot of

0:05:55.520 --> 0:05:58.440
<v Speaker 1>different oals, plus seeds at thirty percent. We've got a

0:05:58.480 --> 0:06:00.400
<v Speaker 1>mix of some flour and for pito seed, and we've

0:06:00.400 --> 0:06:03.240
<v Speaker 1>got nuts at twenty four percent, almonds and cashews. I

0:06:03.240 --> 0:06:05.960
<v Speaker 1>guess a cleaner ingredient list from this perspective, like it's

0:06:05.960 --> 0:06:08.400
<v Speaker 1>basically just some dried fruits and nuts and some seeds,

0:06:08.680 --> 0:06:11.479
<v Speaker 1>and then going through the nutrition panels, so serving size

0:06:11.520 --> 0:06:13.840
<v Speaker 1>is thirty grams, so very the same size as a

0:06:13.880 --> 0:06:17.000
<v Speaker 1>wool West one, very similar energy wise, just shy have

0:06:17.040 --> 0:06:19.839
<v Speaker 1>six hundred kilodeeles, which is roughly about one hundred and

0:06:19.839 --> 0:06:23.000
<v Speaker 1>forty five calories, four point five grams of protein, so

0:06:23.080 --> 0:06:26.200
<v Speaker 1>higher protein than the wool West one, eight point six

0:06:26.279 --> 0:06:28.800
<v Speaker 1>grams of fat with only less than one gram of

0:06:28.800 --> 0:06:31.640
<v Speaker 1>that being saturated fat, so a much better fat profile

0:06:31.680 --> 0:06:34.680
<v Speaker 1>in this one. Ten grams of carbohydrate with eight of

0:06:34.720 --> 0:06:37.520
<v Speaker 1>that being sugar, two point four grams of fiber, and

0:06:37.600 --> 0:06:41.040
<v Speaker 1>point seven to grams of sodium, so basically don't even

0:06:41.080 --> 0:06:43.800
<v Speaker 1>more about the sodium in the product. So I think

0:06:43.839 --> 0:06:46.960
<v Speaker 1>this for a traumic SUSI is a much better option.

0:06:47.040 --> 0:06:49.280
<v Speaker 1>Not only is it better price wise, like it's much

0:06:49.279 --> 0:06:52.800
<v Speaker 1>more budget friendly. The nutrition analysis is far better as well,

0:06:52.880 --> 0:06:55.640
<v Speaker 1>a little bit less sugar, less saturated fat, a little

0:06:55.680 --> 0:06:58.120
<v Speaker 1>bit more protein, a little bit more dietary fiber as well,

0:06:58.160 --> 0:07:01.640
<v Speaker 1>so nutritionally it's more superior. Budget wise, it's more superior,

0:07:01.680 --> 0:07:04.560
<v Speaker 1>and the ingredient list is as far less than what

0:07:04.640 --> 0:07:06.640
<v Speaker 1>the ingredient list is on the warl worst one, So

0:07:06.680 --> 0:07:09.760
<v Speaker 1>for me, this definitely takes the price so far. I

0:07:09.840 --> 0:07:10.080
<v Speaker 1>like it.

0:07:10.080 --> 0:07:11.960
<v Speaker 2>It's clearly, and you know what I mean. It is

0:07:11.960 --> 0:07:13.800
<v Speaker 2>what it is. You've got a certain amount of dried fruit,

0:07:13.880 --> 0:07:16.280
<v Speaker 2>which is a trail mix in terms of energy requirements

0:07:16.320 --> 0:07:19.200
<v Speaker 2>for people who are doing hikes or endurance rides, et cetera.

0:07:19.640 --> 0:07:22.160
<v Speaker 2>So and they're stating what it is. I like the

0:07:22.200 --> 0:07:25.120
<v Speaker 2>seed proportions amazing, Like thirty percent seeds is really good

0:07:25.160 --> 0:07:27.680
<v Speaker 2>quality product. And nuts. I'd love the nuts to be

0:07:27.680 --> 0:07:29.560
<v Speaker 2>a little bit higher at twenty four, but they're still

0:07:29.560 --> 0:07:30.360
<v Speaker 2>pretty good.

0:07:30.160 --> 0:07:32.040
<v Speaker 1>And they're just almonds and cashews. There's no peanuts in

0:07:32.080 --> 0:07:33.800
<v Speaker 1>their ears, so they're using good quality nuts.

0:07:33.920 --> 0:07:36.280
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, yeah, one hundred percent. The five is still a

0:07:36.280 --> 0:07:39.320
<v Speaker 2>bit lower, you know, two point four grams per thirty grams.

0:07:39.320 --> 0:07:42.080
<v Speaker 2>I'd love to see it up around three to five sugars.

0:07:42.120 --> 0:07:43.560
<v Speaker 2>You know you are going to get sugars at eight

0:07:43.560 --> 0:07:47.800
<v Speaker 2>grams from dried fruit. But the saturated fat's very very low,

0:07:47.880 --> 0:07:49.800
<v Speaker 2>which is as strong it's saying that the fat in

0:07:49.800 --> 0:07:52.240
<v Speaker 2>that product is naturally occurring coming from the nuts. It's

0:07:52.240 --> 0:07:54.680
<v Speaker 2>an energy dense food, absolutely, but for those who need

0:07:54.720 --> 0:07:56.440
<v Speaker 2>it can be a very smart choice and for the

0:07:56.480 --> 0:07:58.640
<v Speaker 2>pricely and that's always half what the Woolies one is

0:07:58.680 --> 0:08:01.840
<v Speaker 2>being advertised or Thorry being start with a much cleaner,

0:08:01.840 --> 0:08:04.920
<v Speaker 2>stronger ingredient list. So this is certainly far, fast superior

0:08:05.000 --> 0:08:05.920
<v Speaker 2>to the Woolies.

0:08:05.960 --> 0:08:08.640
<v Speaker 1>Well, absolutely yeah, we couldn't agree more. And then our

0:08:08.720 --> 0:08:10.520
<v Speaker 1>final product, we thought, this is one of the new

0:08:10.640 --> 0:08:13.600
<v Speaker 1>ones in the market, Susie. It's the Harvest box of

0:08:13.760 --> 0:08:17.000
<v Speaker 1>the big big box power Mix, so it's Harvest Box

0:08:17.120 --> 0:08:18.800
<v Speaker 1>is a brand and the Power Mix is the type

0:08:18.800 --> 0:08:21.239
<v Speaker 1>that we've chosen. Now this one I didn't realize, Susie.

0:08:21.280 --> 0:08:23.440
<v Speaker 1>I just picked one online. It's just the full box,

0:08:23.440 --> 0:08:25.040
<v Speaker 1>so it's two hudred and twenty grams for the box.

0:08:25.280 --> 0:08:27.240
<v Speaker 1>You said that they actually come in little portion size

0:08:27.280 --> 0:08:29.400
<v Speaker 1>and mounts as well, which I'll let you discuss in

0:08:29.440 --> 0:08:32.120
<v Speaker 1>a moment, But the two hundred and twenty gram boxes

0:08:32.160 --> 0:08:33.959
<v Speaker 1>as so on Sourd this week. It coals for three

0:08:33.960 --> 0:08:37.520
<v Speaker 1>p forty five. Normally it's about seven dollars for the

0:08:37.520 --> 0:08:40.160
<v Speaker 1>two twenty grams, so definitely the most expensive out of

0:08:40.240 --> 0:08:42.520
<v Speaker 1>all of them, sort of double the price point of

0:08:42.600 --> 0:08:45.120
<v Speaker 1>the other two for sort of half of what you're getting.

0:08:45.360 --> 0:08:47.840
<v Speaker 1>But let's go through the ingredients in the power mix.

0:08:47.960 --> 0:08:50.520
<v Speaker 1>So it's almonds as a top ingredient, which we love

0:08:50.600 --> 0:08:52.680
<v Speaker 1>to see a good quality nut as a first ingredient,

0:08:53.000 --> 0:08:55.520
<v Speaker 1>followed by flame raisins, which have a little bit of

0:08:55.600 --> 0:08:59.240
<v Speaker 1>vegetable oil in them, followed by Cranberry's milk chocolate which

0:08:59.360 --> 0:09:02.040
<v Speaker 1>contains cane sugar, four cream, milk powder, cocoa butter and

0:09:02.120 --> 0:09:04.320
<v Speaker 1>cocoa mass. So even just the quality of that milk

0:09:04.400 --> 0:09:06.599
<v Speaker 1>chocolate is far better than the milk chocolate that was

0:09:06.640 --> 0:09:09.680
<v Speaker 1>in the Woolworst blend with a little bit of a mulcivies.

0:09:09.720 --> 0:09:13.959
<v Speaker 1>Followed by some macadamias, sunflower seeds, pistachios, and pepeitas. So

0:09:14.200 --> 0:09:16.600
<v Speaker 1>pretty you know, pretty clean for an ingredient. Let's yes,

0:09:16.679 --> 0:09:18.800
<v Speaker 1>we have the added milk chocolate in there. Some people

0:09:18.840 --> 0:09:21.120
<v Speaker 1>would say that that makes the product. I would agree.

0:09:21.920 --> 0:09:23.559
<v Speaker 1>It's always nice when you see a little bit chocolate

0:09:23.600 --> 0:09:25.520
<v Speaker 1>and some choil mix, but you know, pretty good. You know,

0:09:25.559 --> 0:09:27.480
<v Speaker 1>they've got some good quality nuts, and there's some almonds

0:09:27.520 --> 0:09:30.880
<v Speaker 1>and macadamias, good quality seeds. We've got some flowers, pepeteras.

0:09:30.880 --> 0:09:33.400
<v Speaker 1>We've also got some pistachios which are quite expensive as well,

0:09:33.400 --> 0:09:36.040
<v Speaker 1>which might just explain the price point as well. So

0:09:36.600 --> 0:09:37.320
<v Speaker 1>I like that mix.

0:09:37.480 --> 0:09:39.760
<v Speaker 2>What I noticed actually and why we discussed or decided

0:09:39.800 --> 0:09:42.640
<v Speaker 2>having this product in here today was that I had

0:09:42.720 --> 0:09:45.720
<v Speaker 2>noticed in the I actually went to Woolies and found

0:09:45.960 --> 0:09:49.040
<v Speaker 2>actually was a cold. Now Coals have got several new

0:09:49.640 --> 0:09:54.480
<v Speaker 2>boxes of portion control trail mixes, and they're actually across

0:09:54.600 --> 0:09:57.400
<v Speaker 2>the board quite strong, so have a look. They're in

0:09:57.520 --> 0:10:00.400
<v Speaker 2>the baking section actually in a funny place we don't

0:10:00.400 --> 0:10:02.839
<v Speaker 2>think of them, but really smart mix of product. And

0:10:03.000 --> 0:10:07.640
<v Speaker 2>I also like this Harvest Box brand. So you can

0:10:07.720 --> 0:10:11.360
<v Speaker 2>buy them in forty five gram bags liam which is

0:10:11.400 --> 0:10:13.360
<v Speaker 2>a really decent serving size, so it comes in an

0:10:13.360 --> 0:10:15.679
<v Speaker 2>over two hundred calories per serve, but forty five is

0:10:15.720 --> 0:10:18.560
<v Speaker 2>quite significant, so that's a really decent kind of handful.

0:10:18.600 --> 0:10:21.280
<v Speaker 2>You certainly feel quite satisfied after that, and that will

0:10:21.320 --> 0:10:24.439
<v Speaker 2>give you about five grams of protein. The fat is

0:10:24.600 --> 0:10:27.079
<v Speaker 2>not low, almost fifteen grams per serve, so a third

0:10:27.120 --> 0:10:28.959
<v Speaker 2>of it is fat, but the saturated is coming in

0:10:29.080 --> 0:10:31.160
<v Speaker 2>very low at two point two, so it's not too bad.

0:10:31.840 --> 0:10:33.440
<v Speaker 2>And then you're getting, of course some of the fat

0:10:33.480 --> 0:10:35.439
<v Speaker 2>from the nut base, which i'll talk about in a second.

0:10:35.760 --> 0:10:38.760
<v Speaker 2>Carbo hydrate's seventeen point three, but sugar's fourteen point four,

0:10:38.880 --> 0:10:40.720
<v Speaker 2>so that's where the chocolate's coming through a little bit.

0:10:40.760 --> 0:10:42.760
<v Speaker 2>It does have a decent amount of sugar perserve, and

0:10:42.880 --> 0:10:45.000
<v Speaker 2>it's getting to the three grams of dietary fiber, which

0:10:45.040 --> 0:10:47.640
<v Speaker 2>Leanne and I like. It's almond's first, followed by the

0:10:47.720 --> 0:10:50.480
<v Speaker 2>raisins as you said, and then I think some of

0:10:50.559 --> 0:10:54.040
<v Speaker 2>the fat is coming from those macadamia, sunflowercis, pistachios, per peter,

0:10:54.160 --> 0:10:57.120
<v Speaker 2>so all really good profile of fats too. So I

0:10:57.240 --> 0:10:59.680
<v Speaker 2>think this would sit for mean because it's not overly

0:10:59.720 --> 0:11:01.600
<v Speaker 2>in it expensive is that? How much is it coming

0:11:01.640 --> 0:11:04.880
<v Speaker 2>in at these about fifteen sixteen dollars a kilo, Yeah,

0:11:04.960 --> 0:11:07.160
<v Speaker 2>so not inexpensive. But what I think the message is

0:11:07.200 --> 0:11:09.480
<v Speaker 2>I would give this one. Say, I'd give the coals one,

0:11:09.559 --> 0:11:12.839
<v Speaker 2>say eight maybe, and then I give this one a seven.

0:11:13.800 --> 0:11:15.360
<v Speaker 2>But I think they're worth having a look at, and

0:11:15.360 --> 0:11:17.719
<v Speaker 2>I think that they're really smart portion controlled snacks for

0:11:17.800 --> 0:11:19.839
<v Speaker 2>the afternoon. They're fantastic when you add them to some

0:11:19.960 --> 0:11:23.200
<v Speaker 2>protein yogurt as a hit of both portion control nuts

0:11:23.240 --> 0:11:26.640
<v Speaker 2>and taste and crunch whole food. But really, I think

0:11:26.720 --> 0:11:28.480
<v Speaker 2>the message from Leanna and I today is you want

0:11:28.520 --> 0:11:30.360
<v Speaker 2>ones that have got at least three if not closer

0:11:30.400 --> 0:11:32.960
<v Speaker 2>to five grams of protein per serve and at least

0:11:33.000 --> 0:11:35.400
<v Speaker 2>three grams of dietary fiber per serve for us to

0:11:35.480 --> 0:11:39.199
<v Speaker 2>really like it as a balanced, filling snack choice. And

0:11:39.360 --> 0:11:42.200
<v Speaker 2>of course you've got to be really mindful of the portions,

0:11:42.480 --> 0:11:45.720
<v Speaker 2>which is why I personally like the portion control individual packs,

0:11:45.760 --> 0:11:47.720
<v Speaker 2>So check them out of coals in the baking section.

0:11:48.360 --> 0:11:50.160
<v Speaker 1>Definitely, I agree with you. I would sort of give

0:11:50.160 --> 0:11:52.280
<v Speaker 1>it around a six or seven. I think the ingredients

0:11:52.320 --> 0:11:54.520
<v Speaker 1>are quite good that that profile, and some of those

0:11:54.600 --> 0:11:57.199
<v Speaker 1>ingredients have chosen, like it's nice to see some maceadaemians

0:11:57.240 --> 0:12:00.000
<v Speaker 1>in there, some pistachios and compitas. They're not typically thinks

0:12:00.120 --> 0:12:02.120
<v Speaker 1>you see in a nut blend. They typically put a

0:12:02.240 --> 0:12:05.280
<v Speaker 1>ton of peanuts because they're really cheap, and almonds typically

0:12:05.360 --> 0:12:07.160
<v Speaker 1>as well, which yes, this one has almonds, but it's

0:12:07.200 --> 0:12:09.360
<v Speaker 1>got a nice sort of more diversity of some nuts

0:12:09.400 --> 0:12:12.040
<v Speaker 1>and seeds in there too. And let's you know, let's

0:12:12.120 --> 0:12:13.920
<v Speaker 1>be real here, it does have added chocolate as well,

0:12:14.000 --> 0:12:16.040
<v Speaker 1>so just being really conscious of that that that's sort

0:12:16.040 --> 0:12:18.680
<v Speaker 1>of one of those discretionary foods that we're adding into

0:12:18.760 --> 0:12:20.079
<v Speaker 1>our diet. So if you're going to have, you know,

0:12:20.160 --> 0:12:22.960
<v Speaker 1>some chocolate and neutral mix regularly. Probably not a great

0:12:22.960 --> 0:12:25.679
<v Speaker 1>idea to be having biscuits, cakes, cookies, ice cream on

0:12:25.800 --> 0:12:27.920
<v Speaker 1>top of that as well. So just be conscious that

0:12:28.040 --> 0:12:31.280
<v Speaker 1>some of these little things do sneak in sometimes masquerading

0:12:31.320 --> 0:12:34.360
<v Speaker 1>as healthy products as well. And particularly be just conscious

0:12:34.360 --> 0:12:36.800
<v Speaker 1>if you are giving these to kids regularly in their lunchboxes,

0:12:36.840 --> 0:12:39.280
<v Speaker 1>you are regularly adding in a lot of added sugar

0:12:39.360 --> 0:12:41.199
<v Speaker 1>into their diet as well. So not that that's a

0:12:41.240 --> 0:12:43.559
<v Speaker 1>bad thing, but I think that the portion and the

0:12:43.640 --> 0:12:45.959
<v Speaker 1>amount or the frequency of how often you do these

0:12:46.040 --> 0:12:48.520
<v Speaker 1>things just needs to be sort of taken into consideration

0:12:48.640 --> 0:12:49.000
<v Speaker 1>as well.

0:12:49.320 --> 0:12:49.520
<v Speaker 2>True.

0:12:49.559 --> 0:12:51.599
<v Speaker 1>True, all right, well, al Susy. That brings us to

0:12:51.640 --> 0:12:54.560
