Who doesn't love a banana sundae during the summertime? When in my local 711 I came across new snack mixes made by Planters. Since, I hate raisins I skipped the oatmeal raisin mix but couldn't pass up trying this one.
The mix is made up of honey roasted peanuts, chocolate candy coated peanuts, vanilla yogurt coated peanuts, strawberry yogurt coated peanuts, and banana chips.

Ok so while I was intrigued by the sounds of this mix I was also a bit hesitant. My main concern? A fakey taste. The peanuts were supposed to be the honey roasted kind but I didn't quite detect the honey part but I did get a pleasant lightly sweet and lightly salted taste. The chocolate candy coated peanuts were very much like peanut m&m's. The yogurt covered peanuts were larger than I was expecting. They were nearly the size of jordan almonds making them seem massively huge compared to the candy coated ones.They were nice and creamy adding another texture layer to the mix. The flavor wasn't too bad but did leave a sweet after taste in my mouth. The banana chips were not overly sweet and added an interesting texture and flavor to the mix. It was nice and crunchy but wasn't super sweet like some banana chips I've tried before.
Over all it was tasty but I could have done without the yogurt covered pieces
. My favorite bites were of just the nuts and banana chips together. I wouldn't go out of my way to buy it again but I wouldn't turn it down if someone offered me more.
