No compensation was received for this review. I would like it if you tried the snack to see if you enjoy it as much as I did, but that's about it.
I had a Sahale nut blend flavored with ranch and chili. Normally, I might be concerned about these strong flavors, but the blend was well-seasoned with light notes of each flavor. The flavors turned out to be a good match with each other.
The Starbucks website lists each serving as having 140 to 150 calories. They are priced at $2.50 for two ounces, which definitely makes them a splurge. However, if Starbucks drinks and snacks are part of your busy routine, these nuts can be a great afternoon pick-me-up.
I think that Starbucks new push for natural or healthy snacks is well-advised. If you're on a budget, buying in bulk and making small portions of your own snacks is going to serve you much better.
