I was excited to see KIND bars in the Delta airplane snack basket on a flight from BOS->DTW the other day. I grabbed one, and to pass the time started to read the label and ingredients. The front of the package boasts '5 SUPER GRAINS - Oats, Millet, Quinoa, Amaranth, Buckwheat' which seems very appealing from a nutrition standpoint. However, when I flipped the package over and noticed there were 4 different types of added sugars - Tapioca syrup, cane syrup, honey, and brown rice syrup, I realized this was just another candy bar disguised as 'good for you'. Buyer ALWAYS beware - the ingredients are the most important part of a label *ALWAYS* check them first before making a purchase!!!
