I love that it’s creamy but has some texture too. There were a few things that caught my eye about this product. First, it comes in single-serving glass jars. I love buying desserts that come in individual servings—it helps with portion control, plus anyone can dig in whenever they want. In addition, the glass jars help us cut down on single-use plastics. (I like to wash and keep the jars because they’re the perfect juice-glass size). And the pudding only has 6 grams of added sugar per jar. While some sugar is OK, especially when you’re eating dessert,consuming too much added sugarcan lead to insulin resistance, increasing the risk of developing type 2 diabetes, nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and more.As a bonus, the package of six 3.5-ounce jars was just $9.99. I immediately added it to my cart. After dinner that night, I opened a couple of jars and sprinkled them with chopped nectarines and pepitas before decamping to the couch to watchThe Great American Baking Show(always better with dessert!). It was everything I wanted in a dessert: rich and creamy, flecks of vanilla bean throughout, not-too-sweet and just the right amount. I’ll definitely be buying them again!
