Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Almond Bar (30 Ct., 1.2 Oz. Bars) - SCS

I bought 30 of these bars last month (April 2020). These have long been a favorite snack of mine that I've previously purchased from supermarkets, and they've always tasted fresh. However, these came bulk packed - not in the store box as is shown in the item photo. There were simply 30 loose bars in a plain brown cardboard box. And, although the expiration date printed on the wrapping is July 2020, they all taste stale and out of date. Very disappointed.Edit: Although my review above is still accurate, the vendor did the right thing and issued me a complete refund. Due to this, I will likely reorder these at least once more at some point. If I receive another stale batch that will be it for me.

Don't buy this. It depicts this as being sold and delivered in the original Nature Valley box, but wasn't. The bars cane loose in a plain cardboard box with varying expiration dates and the appearance of being previously damaged.

I have ordered these a few times before. I recieved them in a bag one time, but this last order is the worst. They are stale, but have a whole 2 months before the "best before" date rolls past. I always use the buy again option so its the same vendor who I discovered does not take returns! WHAT?I'm disgusted to throw them out.

My local box stores offers $10 for 30 or $14 for 48 and they are fresh, as with other negative comments, they were stale with close on and varied expiration dates, not as pictured and should be advertised as end of life product with a substantial discount. Since it is not shipped in the standard product box is the vendor standing by the safety of the product and that it has not been tampered with? Would not have checked the box stores, but the quality of the product shipped was substandard. Do not buy unless these issues are answered/fixed.

I love the flavor and I love the variety of bars offered by Nature Valley. Only a couple of small complaints: Please offer Gluten Free versions of the Sweet & Salty Almond and the Sweet & Salty Cashew bars. You've proven you can do it well with other bars (especially in your protein line).Also, no need to add artificial colors to any of your bars! Your roasted mixed nut bar contains more than 5 artificial colors!!

Do not buy these! They are not in the original box...they come loose and there were only 28, not 30 as advertised.the bars look damaged

Some tasted old, some tasted great. But I do NOT like getting a product like this that is not in the Box it is supposed to be in. For all I know they could have been collected from the outdated shelves and thrown in this box and shipped to me. :(

When I got the box I was very disappointed. It was the same flavor. But the size were way off. They were a lot more skinnier for the price. I don’t think buying in bulk for this product saved me money.
