Dear Kar’s Nuts,

my doctor said I should start trying to eat healthy, so I decided to buy your “Yogurt Apple Nut Mix” instead of the Snickers I really wanted. After eating the whole bag I realized there were three servings in there. I was only supposed to eat a third of it! Who does that?

This set me off on a comparison between a Snickers and your product. I’m more than shocked that the Snickers wins out in both calories and calories from fat (even when adjusted for weight). So now I am confused.

I want to do what my doctor advises, but I’m uncertain what course of action I should be taking here. If your nut mix wasn’t better tasting than a Snickers I wouldn’t be in a quandary here, but from my first bite of “Yogurt Apple Nut Mix” I was like Edmund in the Chronicles of Narnia eating the White Witch’s “Turkish Delight!” I couldn’t stop myself until the bag was empty (and I’d sell out my friends out for another bag).

So tell me what to do. Should I keep eating your product or should I just get the Snickers next time?

Sincerely,

Christopher L. Jorgensen
