Several weeks ago I began my love affair with KNOW Better Foods. Grain-free, gluten-free, soy-free, crap-free foods – they have won my heart – particularly the Cereal. The KNOW Better Cereal is crunchy, slightly sweet, and like an utterly perfect “crouton” of sorts. After consuming the entire bag in just about one sitting (oops), I…
