Kashi Cocoa Beach Granola

Kashi company, www.kashi.com, started in 1984 with their first creation of a  “unique blend of Seven Whole Grains and Sesame for its supreme nutritional profile — a vegetarian source of protein and complex carbohydrates that’s hearty, satisfying, and energizing.”

I recently tried their Cocoa Beach granola cereal.  The cereal has almonds, coconut, and granola clusters all coated in cocoa.

I really enjoyed this granola.  The sweetness was not overpowering and the cocoa notes blended well with the grains, nutsm and coconut flavors.  The chocolate intensity lasted throughout, even at the finish. 

I do have a particularly interesting dilemma, though.  I can’t decide which way I prefer to eat it!

Do I prefer the granola plain, popping it in my mouth as a milk-less snack? Yes, that's a great way to eat it.  Or do I prefer it in the traditional manner, breakfast bowl style covered in milk?  That's a great way to eat it too.

Hmm, too close to call.  Maybe I'll alternate.

I must admit, I do like slurping up the chocolatey milk left at the bottom of my cereal bowl.
