Enjoy Life Granola

I know there have been a lot of people who have commented in past threads about how the Enjoy Life Granola is basically inedible because it is rock hard and impossible to chew. Well I thought everyone might want to know that they've reformulated their recipe, and now it is soooooo much better! The consistency is more like that of regular granola and it is so easy to chew! It makes me so happy to be able to eat it without fearing that I'll break a tooth :lol:

If anybody decides to try it again, just beware that they've only just made the switch, so only the bags that say "new and improved recipe" with a 55 cent coupon attached to them are the new ones, all the rest are still the rock solid kind.

For anybody who hated it before, I would definitely consider giving it a second chance now!

This is good to hear I am one of the weirdo's who actually really liked the old version of the granola. However I bought a bag of the new formulated cereal and nearly broke a tooth. I mean it was harder than the original so hopefully I just got a fluke bag of the new recipe! I will try it again

Thanks for posting. I'm going to try it again. I bought one or two bags of it, and had to have my jaw realigned both times!! LOL :lol:

Seriously, I didn't find it to be very palatable. I'll give it another shot though.

Is it for all the granolas? The recipe seems to be the same online.

Ooh--thanks for posting this! I've held off buying the granola because of the reports of it being so hard. I'll look for the new packages :D

There is one by Bakery on Main that is really good. It has a lot of nuts and corn flakes. There is a cranberry one that is DANK!

Yeah - it is for all granolas. I don't know why they haven't posted anything about it online but I e-mailed the company and they verified that they changed the recipe and soon all the stores will be selling the new kind. I guess they're just behind on their web update :D

That's funny - I'm eating the Enjoy Life new and improved... Very Berry Crunch while I was reading this. It's pretty good. Doesn't seem too hard, though I didn't try the previous version of it. Very high in carbs though...

The new version is definitely better - much more like 'real' granola. But it's still too sweet. :/

      Desperately need a vitamin D supplement. I've reacted to most brands I've tried.

      I do not know this, but since they are labelled gluten-free, and are not really a product that could easily be contaminated when making them (there would be not flour in the air of such a facility, for example), I don't really see contamination as something to be concerned about for this type of product.

      Thanks @Scott Adams. Do you know if Kirkland Signature supplements share facility and production lines with other products containing gluten? I'm worried that I'll react to this brand just like I did with other gluten-free labelled supplement brands.

      This is a really common area of confusion. Most natural cheeses (cheddar, Swiss, mozzarella, Parmesan, brie, camembert, and most blue cheeses) are inherently gluten-free, and you’re right that the molds used today are typically grown on gluten-free media. The bigger risks tend to come from processed cheeses: shredded cheese (anti-caking agents), cheese spreads, beer-washed rinds, smoke-flavored cheeses, and anything with added seasonings or “natural flavors,” where cross-contact can happen. As for yeast, you’re also correct — yeast itself is gluten-free. The issue is the source: brewer’s yeast and yeast extracts can be derived from barley unless labeled gluten-free, while baker’s yeast is generally safe. When in doubt, sticking with whole, unprocessed cheeses and products specifically labeled gluten-free is the safest approach, especially if you’re highly sensitive.
