Early Bird Foods' bags of granola are presented as a [healthy alternative breakfast](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/raise-granola) that is made with natural, wholesome ingredients that are good for you. The honey-dipped granola pouches are made in small batches, suggesting that the food is something that might be made in your mom's kitchen with care. Some other notes on the packets highlight the kinds of nuts inside, and point out that the mix is made with extra virgin olive oil.

The [granola comes in flavors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/natures-garden-clusters) with humorous names like 'Choc-A-Doodle-Doo' and 'Gets the Worm,' which allude to waking up first thing in the morning. Each of the bags is [colorfully labeled](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fruit-bliss) and features a clear pouch that lets you get a peek at the different granola mix inside.
