Win a Holiday Gift Basket from World of Grains Cookies!
This giveaway is closed. Congratulations to the winner, Joanna Smith, who also became a Fan of World of Grains on Facebook!
ONE WORLD, MANY GRAINS™. Snack time is a challenge for many of us. With so many choices available, it’s often hard to find the right balance in our lives. World of GrainsTM cookies balance flavor, goodness and convenience. Every single-serve pouch of our whole grain cookies contains:
- A hearty mix of 8 blended whole grains
- No artificial sweeteners, flavors or colors
- 3 grams of fiber
- 15 grams of whole grains
- 3 grams of protein
- 90mg of omega 3’s from flax
- 130 calories of wholesome satisfaction
World of Grains cookies come in 5 varieties-5 Varieties: Multigrain, Blueberry, Cranberry, Oatmeal Raisin, Apple Cinnamon, and each box contains 4 (1.6 oz.) single-serve pouches. I received one of each for review. These are not typical cookies. For one thing, they are much less sweet than I was expecting. The fruit is real dried fruit, somewhat chewy. And the Multigrain taste almost like a cracker rather than a cookie! But that’s not necessarily a bad thing, most of us get way too much sugar in our diet anyway. These cookies satisfy a sweet craving without making it worse :)
World of Grains cookies are only available online and at Whole Foods Markets, so if you’d like to try them yourself, I’ve got a Holiday Gift Basket you can win! Each basket contains a box of each flavor of cookie, a $20 retail value, and I have 2 two give away.

Hi! Neat site. I browsed their products, and here are a few things I learned about one of the products, called “Clusters”:
“World of Grains™ clusters bring you the light, airy crunchiness of 8 different whole grains puffed into a gently sweet & salty snack, packed in convenient on-the-go pouches. Individual no-mess pieces make for pop-in-your-mouth perfection.”
So it’s a sweet and salty snack, something my kids always seem to go for. Many thanks, I love this giveaway. cdziuba@aol.com
