My coworker brought this in - she'd got a big pack from Costco, and I was so surprised to be able to eat them. They say wheat free on the pack but on the web they are also listed gluten free, plus casein free.

Flavors:
Almond Crunch - Almonds, Rice Malt, Organic Evaporated Cane Juice, Sea Salt
Peanut Crunch - peanuts, sesame seeds, rice malt, organic evaporated cane juice, sea salt
Sunflower - sunflower seeds, sesame seeds, rice malt, orgainic evaporated cane juice, sea salt
White Sesame -  sesame seeds, pinenuts, organic evaporated cane juice, rice malt, sea salt
Banana & Peanut - peanuts, banana(banana,vegetable oil), sesame seeds, rice malt, organic evaporated cane juice, sea salt, natural flavor.
Blueberry & Peanut - peanuts, blueberry, sesame seeds, rice malt, organic evaporated cane juice, sea salt, natural flavor 
Nori Peanut - peanuts, sesame seeds, rice malt, organic evaporated cane juice, roasted nori, sea salt 
Walnut - walnuts, sesame seeds, rice malt, organic evaporated cane juice, sea salt
Black Sesame - black sesame seeds, almonds, organic evaporated cane juice, rice malt, sea salt 
Pumpkin - pumpkin seeds, sesame seeds, rice malt, organic evaporated cane juice, sea salt 
Cashew - cashews, sesame seeds, rice malt, organic evaporated cane juice, sea salt

They are clustered nuts, sort of like peanut brittle, with some salt and some evaporated cane juice and some have sesame seeds (sorry, Michelle!) and have good protein - the pumpkin one has 9g per serving or 18g total in a 2 oz bag with 4g sugar per serving or 8g per bag.

I have had the cashew and the pumpkin ones now and they are really really good. The site says free shipping with a $30 purchase or you can get them at Costco, Sams Club, BJs Wholesale Club and Whole Foods.

I'm addicted!

I saw those at a little restaurant the other day, but didn't try them. I'm surprised Costco had them, and I might just have to get ahold of someone I know with a Costco card! ;-)

My coworker got them for her kids lunches - they are a lot lower in sugar than most things like this but still have a nice sweet taste. Nice to find a delicious healthy treat!

I LOVE Mrs. Mays snacks! They are great. I've had the Black Sesame and the walnut one. I plan on taking them on vacation. They're a great healthy pick me up!! I got mine in a health food store. I'm glad to hear that Costco carries them. They are bound to be cheaper there. :D

Thanks for the info Stephanie. B) I'm always glad to find a new, sweet, and healthy product! We have a BJ's card and I'll look the next time I go to Whole Foods too. :)
