The information on the front tells us that the bars are 'rice and wheat cereal bars with maple syrup' and that they contain '30% less fat than Tesco cranberry cereal bars'. This doesn't really mean much to me as I have never tried the cranberry cereal bars!

I shall be working on the RNLI stall on Llandudno seafront on Sunday selling lifeboat souvenirs and as the stall is open from 8am until 6pm I needed some food and drink to take with me that wouldn't ruin my diet which is still going well if a little slowly.

I needed a new type of snack whilst at work, so opted for Tesco Light Choices Maple Cereal Bars. I wasn't particularly looking for a healthy snack, just something to fill the gap. What attracted me to the cereal bars was the picture on the box, as they looked delicious, but how wrong could I be? Tesco's Light Choices Maple Cereal Bars are part of the new 'Light Choices' range, which used to be known as the Healthy Living range. The 'light choices' brand claim to be big on taste, light in calories, sugar or fat. Tesco also say that the range doesn't use any hydrogenated fat, artificial colours or flavours. Each of the products are either less than 3% fat ... Read the complete review
