REVIEW and GIVEAWAY: Hormel Rev Meat Snack Mix

I am always on the go, finding adventures to share with you, and one of the biggest challenges is finding snacks to bring with us to keep us full until we return to civilization and find a restaurant, or return home. Nothing will cut an adventure short like hunger will! I was excited to receive and try a sample of the new Hormel Rev Snack Mix.

Protein is a big factor when I choose snacks to take on the go to help us feel fuller for longer. Hormel Rev Snack Mix contains combinations of real meat and cheese, and features up to 12 grams of protein.

The first things I noticed about it were:

• The size:
  It’s in a convenient little snack pack perfect for a single serving, yet it can still fit in your purse or bag.
• The variety and ingredients:
  The snack mix comes in a variety of flavors: honey mustard bacon, turkey ranch, pepperoni and cheese, pepperoni pizza, and spicy BBQ & bacon. My favorite was the turkey ranch. I love eating crunchy snacks, and everything in this little packet is crunchy and delicious. (One thing I did notice was that there is one of those “do not eat” packets inside the pack, so make sure to remove that before giving to your kids!)
• Convenience:
  Even though it has meat ingredients, you do not have to refrigerate it. (It does need to be refrigerated after opening, but because of the size, you will most likely eat all of it right away anyway.)
