“Can I hold the bag?”
Goldfish are a preschool favorite and a Snackin’ Family favorite. We enjoy trying the new shapes, sizes and colors.
The original Goldfish are appreciated, but rarely do the Snackin’ Kids finish a full bag anymore. Perhaps Goldfish feel a little babyish, and they don’t usually pick them at snack time.
Enter Goldfish Mega Bites. According to the bag, they are “big and crispy,” and they don’t disappoint.
Goldfish Mega Bites feel like a perfect blend of the regular size cheese Goldfish and Cheez-Its (another Snackin’ Family favorite). They are big enough to appreciate just one at a time, and they have an enjoyable crunch that comes from being made of layers of Goldfish goodness.
When our recent bag of Goldfish Mega Bites arrived at our house, Snackin’ Brother grabbed it for himself. Yes, he probably ate more than one serving. But he enjoyed them and asked for more later.
A note of caution: Goldfish Mega Bites are a little heavy on sodium. One serving includes 14% of the recommended daily serving of sodium. But, a serving of Goldfish Mega Bites also includes 10% of the DV of thiamin and niacin and 15% of the DV of folate, thanks to the enriched wheat flour.
