Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I'm a bit granola obsessed, always on the search for a great tasting and healthy blend of ingredients. With reasonable effort to avoid hyperbole, Kind Healthy Grains Vanilla Blueberry Clusters might be the best granola I have tried. The diverse grains are sweet and crispy, the nutrients are plentiful, and the price is right. I generally eat the granola dry, straight from the package, but I have eaten it with almond milk, making for a delicious, nutritious breakfast.

The blueberry flavor is, perhaps, a little too subtle, getting lost in the mix of the grains, but it does make its presence known. The variety of grains included is more robust than many other brand I have tried, especially the inclusion of quinoa. So there is a little something to please everyone.
So, for those seeking a delicious, healthy granola blend, I highly recommend Kind Vanilla Blueberry Clusters. For my money, it may be the best grain blend on the market!
Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I couldn't honestly care less about flax seeds and all the other mumbo jumbo on the packaging. I guess I can just trust that it's all good stuff. With a brand name like "Kind" it's a leap of faith I'm willing to take. What I do know, however, is this stuff is tasty.
The smell from the bag is earthy, with a little cinnamon, a little oat. It reminded me of family drives as a kid when we used to roll down the windows while passing the Quaker Oats factory in Cedar Rapids, Iowa. Very inviting.
Smell is not sufficient, so I had to eat this bag of goodies. VERY impressed. One thing I hate about a lot of granola (oat clusters) is that it's crumbled too much. You end up with thousands of tiny chunks. This is not true with the Kind brand. There are big and small chunks, with the right texture and crunch. Added to that is a simply delicious flavor; it's like health-food candy. Each bite is like cheating a diet. Delicious cinnamon flavoring without being overpowering. I highly recommend it in milk as a healthy alternative to sugary cereals, or in handfuls while hiking through multi-colored forest landscapes that pleasantly make time disappear.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I love this granola. It is packed with health benefits (omega-3s, fiber, and more vitamins than Bear Naked Fruit and Nut, my go to granola). There is a variety of interesting and tasty grains. The cinnamon flavor is perfect without being too sweet.
I sprinkled this on yogurt, pancakes with syrup (just to change the texture, it was delicious!), and ate it by the handfuls. Every new combination I tried was a delicious treat.
I truly enjoy this product.
My one complaint is that it is more expensive than Bear Naked, and there is no subscribe and save buying option (yet).

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program The cinnamon oats clusters provide a nice, crunchy taste, and the cinnamon flavor adds an extra punch to it. I added this mix to my cereal, and it is very tasty. This mix is also good as a snack on its own. The zip lock bag is also very convenient for keeping close by when traveling or an at-work snack. I recommend this mix for anyone seeking a healthy snack with lots of good flavor.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program Because I'm a vegetarian it's a little tricky getting those highly touted omega-3s in my diet so I'm always happy to find food source that does the job. This tasty granola contains flax seeds (hence the omega-3s) and a veritable cornucopia of whole grains including amaranth, quinoa, oats, millet, brown rice and buckwheat, but no wheat so it's gluten-free. It's sweet, but not too sweet. It does have evaporated cane juice and molasses, but a one third cup serving only has 6 grams of sugar. That same serving size has 5 grams of fiber, 3 grams of protein, 130 calories and only 3.5 grams of fat and 20 mg of sodium so unless you overdo it, and because it is delicious that's possible, it's a guilt-free food. It's great straight out of the bag, or with milk or (my favorite) yogurt. There are several other flavors and they all sound good so I know I'll be checking them out too. Since there's no honey or dairy I believe this would be good for vegans.
Some of the best granola I have had. Very light, yet filling snack on the go. Not as sweet as the butter pecan version, but that's would be a plus in my book.
