"Kay's Naturals snacks and cereals are made with a better balance of soy protein, fiber, carbohydrates, and good fats, our products are delicious and uniquely satisfying snacks and cereals that can actually help curb the appetite, whether at home, at work, or at play."

Kay's Naturals has given a great deal of thought to the all-natural ingredients of its products.

• PROTEIN: By combining Soy protein with other proteins from whole grain cereal sources, we were able to get a complete amino acid profile, thus making Kay's snacks & cereals a complete source of protein. A single serving contains the same amount of protein as two slices of packaged sandwich meat. Researchers have found that soy protein, when part of a diet low in saturated fat and cholesterol, may reduce the risk of cancer and heart disease.

• FIBER: The fiber used is pea-fiber, making the high protein more digestible. This helps to prevent complications associated with high protein diets. Carbohydrates: Kay's Naturals has striven for balance between carbohydrates (12-14 grams per serving, 1-3 grams of which are fiber) and protein (10 grams) for a healthier product.       

• WEIGHT LOSS AND/OR MAINTENANCE: Due to the substantial protein and fiber content along with the low fat aspect of most of our products, they are very filling while being an effective means of assisting in weight loss and/or maintenance programs."

What are MM's favorite Kay's Naturals products? 

• Crispy Parmesan Protein Chips
• ALL varieties of Protein Cereal, they are all delicious!
• White Cheddar Kruncheeze
• Cinnamon Toast Pretzel Sticks

Melting Mama eats most of the snacks and cereals straight out of the bag or box, and the kids like the cereal with milk of course, but you can also use them in recipes.  She has used Protein Chips in casseroles and as bread crumbs for meat dishes, and they work really well.  Try Lemon Herb on Pork and Chicken, and Crispy Parmesan in Meatballs and on Chicken Parmesan!  The Chili Nacho Cheese Protein Chips make AWESOME high-protein nachos.

By the way, this is also sold at the health food stores.  I think it might be cheaper to buy it there than it will be to pay shipping!!!  The products I tried were awesome.

I don't think so-they are over 2 bucks a bag at the health food stores-this way it was less than a dollar a bag (I buy individual servings).  I bought 4 cases (12 packs) and the shipping was 7.50.  Bit of a splurge for junk, but I do think keeping some of that stuff on hand during the holidays is a good idea.

Oooh!  Thank you so much for the info!  I'm gonna check this out!  Did you get any of the protein chips or pretzel sticks on Saturday?  Are they good?

I didn't like the pretzel sticks, they were Wasabe flavored and I din't like Wasabe. I think they make other flavors though. I did like the cereal though....those I need to get some!

I had the wasabi pretzel sticks and didn't like them either.  I'm not a fan of wasabi either.

I also got the lemon herb protein chips and they're better.  I would like to try some of the others but think I'll just buy them individually at Akins or wherever!

I got the chil protein chips-I like them because they have that crunch I want sometimes.....but I buy the individual packages because like ALL chips, they go down too easily.  However, that said, they don't seem to be the binge triggers that potatoe chips are.

The other chippy thing I can keep around is Lenny's Soy Chips.  

Now, I would serve both of those in the big packages if I were having a party of WLS patients-but I don't know that the general population would like them.

 

What did you buy?

A box of chili cheese, a box of wasabi pretzels, a box of parmesan cheese, and a box of chili lime (I think).....that is a LOT of junk food to buy at once, but the sale was a good one, and it feels good to have some healthy treats stashed.

Next time maybe we can do some order sharing-that was an awesome sale.  Of course, she wants to get us HOOKED so we'll pay full price...... 

Deb, thanks for the heads up!  I just ordered some!  Such a great deal when you can get it for 1/2 price.  I love a good sale!

I ordered a sample pack, some butter pretzels, and some cereal.  Yummy!
