KIND Plus Almond & Cashew Bar

Have I ever mentioned my love for torrone? Torrone is a nougat candy from Italy filled with crunchy nuts. It’s full of textures and flavors: crunchy, chewy, nutty, caramel.

I could not believe my taste buds when I bit into this Kind bar. I was amazed at the delicious complex flavors, the perfectly sweet gooeyness and the light caramel notes. The entire bar reminded me of the favorite candy of my youth and I savored every last morsel.

Reality hit, as I awoke from my day dream and turned over the wrapper to reveal the nutrition facts.
