For ages, I've been hoping that Thomas' would come out with a good whole grain english muffin. In the meantime, I've been eating Oroweat's whole wheat muffins. But I missed the toasty "nooks and crannies" of Thomas', as Oroweat's muffins are more of a fluffy, light texture.

At last, I saw Thomas's light multigrain english muffins on the shelves, and bought some. Yay, nooks and crannies! I was a little leery, since the package said "multigrain" and not "whole grain." But the stats actually looked pretty good:

Calories 100
Total Fat 1.0g
Dietary Fiber 8.0g
Protein 7.0g

Yay!

Then I opened the package. Hoo boy. First impressions were not good. They were kind of a weird dull brown color. I tried to open one, but it was too soft or not cut right. I cut it open, and *gasp* no nooks and crannies — just doughy mush.

It's as if they didn't finish baking them all the way. I thought maybe it would crisp up in the toaster. Nope. That just made it dense and hard.

Ah well. I'm working through the package, but don't see myself buying them again. The texture is just too gross! Back to Oroweat I suppose, or maybe I'll just have thre regular Thomas' sourdough english muffins as a once in a while treat.
