New healthy snack alert! While working at coffee bean last week… due to moving and not having Internet… I discovered the yummiest new snacks there, a yogurt and oatmeal bar! Coffee bean is my hands down favoriteeee coffee place, non fat, no sugar added vanilla latte on ice pleaseeeeeee, and now it’s even better after discovering these new treats! I was starving and didn’t want to chow down a fat cookie, so I asked the girl working what my healthiest options were. At first she said nothing… great… but then she remembered they had an oatmeal and yogurt bar. Yum, tell me more…

“Basically you pick a yogurt or oatmeal flavor and add the toppings you want.” she said. Your delicious choices are: Blackberry Cobbler, Apple Pie, Banana Brown Betty, Banana Peanut Butter Crunch, Bananas Foster, Peaches n’ Cream or Strawberries n’ Cream. Yogurt and oatmeal concoctions can also be individually crafted with countless dried fruit, granola, fresh fruit, candy and nut toppings.

I initially wanted banana but they were out so I of course was fat and got the Apple Pie one. So much for my healthy snack? After I went to www.coffeebean.com to learn about the calories of the oatmeals and they conveniently didn’t have it available. I hope it’s not worse than I think :/

Overall the oatmeal was super tasty and seems pretty healthy if you get it with a simple fruit like banana. The apple pie was almost like a dessert, a bit too sweet. Next time I would ask for less sugary topping or just hope for bananas being in stock. Definitely a must try for all though.
