Dear Kashi Bar makers,

First, let me say, thank you for making a product I enjoy that appears to be good for me. It gives me protein, which is great, because although I am not a vegetarian I often live like one. I prefer to let other handle my dead animals and cook it for me. So yes, protein, good. And fiber. They say you need fiber. And chocolate chips. You managed to include chocolate chips into my healthy snack. Well done.

Your portable treats have also made it possible for me to make it to the next meal without killing someone and I think I can say that my companions during those low blood sugar moments appreciate your product too.

Ahem. HOWEVER. Today's bite into my Chewy Cherry Dark Chocolate bar met with a sharp cracking noise and a horrifying moment of resistance in which I thought I'd broken my molar (or a piece of it.) Those seconds spent very carefully moving the half masticated granola bits about in my mouth were truly fearful. I didn't want to swallow tooth bits. Moreover, I didn't want to visit the dentist. As I gingerly spat the remains of the bar into a tissue and poked around said bits (yes, yes, ewwww) I looked for tooth. Remarkable how sesame bits and granola look like tooth.

Kindly fate seems to be on my side (except for the horrifying snake nightmare I had this morning and oh, yeah, tooth scare thing). No broken bits of tooth.

But, in the future, could you ease up on the crunchiness?

Sincerely,
Stephanie Gayle
