Squirrel Brand or Germack? Which one do you like?

EatWell · ‎12-31-2012

I'm watching Gourmet Holiday this morning.

Now, I am hungry for some nut mix.

I cannot decide between Squirrel Brand or Germack nut mix.

which one do you like better? Sharon F. says Squirrel Brand has been nominated for Customer Choice Award.

And just curious, does Squirrel Brand and Germack come from the same factory, just packaged differently? They both seem to offer the same kind of nuts in their mix.

Thank you.

Sorry, but I certainly wouldn't buy a nut product with squirrel in the name.

Squirrel, will never buy Germack again: What I saw on presentation wasn't what I saw when received: lots of fillers, i.e., tiny raisins and baking choc chips, imo. Squirrel never dieappoints!

I loved the Squirrel Brand so much, so very much, that I had to discontinue my auto-delivery. It was so addictive and so good. Waistline and all of those issues!

neither one--tried them both and they were a hot mess when I got them, especially Germack--all the nuts were in pieces that left nut dust all over the other stuff in the jars. Not at all like the lovely display on TV. Buy locally or mix your own.

I buy from both companies. Their products are excellent, IMO.

I've bought both brands. They are similar in quality.

If you can get out locally, I've bought squirrel brand at Sam's, a nut mix, don't remember what was in it.

I buy mixes either from Sprouts in the bulk bin section, very similar to Germack with or without candy things. Trader Joes has bagged nuts, fruits, etc. and I buy the types of nuts and stuff I want and mix it myself.

I'm sure there are other stores who have this.
