perfect the size for travel. these are great tasting and made in a peanut free facility!! two thumbs up!!

Update, August 2012: They've improved both the packaging and the contents since my last review. I don't notice the "grittiness" much at all, nor does it taste over-toasted, as I'd mentioned in my prior review. The packaging has an updated design and all the packets have a proper tearing point. Definitely recommended! Bumping this from 4 to 5 stars. ------- These are higher protein, lower sugar, and cheaper than energy bars, and even more portable. They're a great way to stave off hunger, gluten-free. I keep one or two in my bag along with a Larabar or two, but this is the healthier & more economical option. The taste is a little "overcooked" to my taste - a deeply roasted flavor - so it may not appeal to all kids, but I'm sure many kids would like it. It's great to squeeze onto an apple as you eat it, or just eat it out of the packet. It does require some kneading before you open the packet - just squish it back and forth for a minute - because it separates like any natural nut butter would. There is a tiny bit of grittiness to the texture, but not really noticeable if you mix it up first. I'd rather have a little grittiness than a ton of shortening added to make it smooth. The other catch is not all the packets are notched properly, making them near impossible to open without scissors. There is a simple solution - I just take scissors and go through each new box, making a tiny nick on any packet where the cut doesn't go through both layers. It only takes a minute to do the whole box, and then they're all ready to go.

Almond butter is a favorite of ours and we usually get Justin's which we felt was very good, but figured we try this product out because of the small package size, which we felt would be a nice snack for a little guy. Well, the size is great and the package opens up easily, and as fat as the product is concerned it is pretty good as well. However, I would say that you need to give it a few packs as once your taste bud adjust to the flavor you might really like it... We use to be fans of Justin's, but after trying out Barney's we will definitely not be switching back. Barney's has become our new stand-by, yet once again I must say that if your taste bud are use to another type Barney's might come off on the wrong. I do however recommend that you give it a few pack, until you get use to the flavor and consistency of the almond butter being so smooth.

I appreciate this product because it's easy to carry, full of good nutrition, and light on calories. These are great on the go. I use them when I'm out hiking, or at work with no time to eat, or just out power shopping. I have diabetes and these have a great protein-to-carb ratio and can be working into any "zone" type diets, or even progressive stages or Atkins. They taste good, they have just enough salt to keep the flavor from being bland. Tip: Almond butter naturally separates, so you need to mix this inside the tube before you open it. I often rip the top off and just squeeze the butter right into my mouth. If you eat it this way and you don't squish it up before you open it, you'll get a mouth full of almond oil. Which isn't the worst thing, but it's not very tasty... and, if not mixed, the rest of the butter will be dry and hard to get out of the tube. It's very easy to work it around with your fingers a few times before you open it. And, if you store them on their side, instead of standing up, it makes the "mixing" much easier. I have this stuff on auto order, which makes it really a bargain and and excellent price per tube. We go through a delivery about once every two-three months. This is a great product that I was glad to have found on amazon.

I love these! I always go for Barney Butter due to my peanut allergy, so these make traveling with food very easy without having to measure it out.

Whenever I ate these, I’m more or less had to open the package from the side because all of it was at the bottom was hard and the top part was oily, but they were still tasty

Tasty.
