Try It Tuesday!

Happy Tuesday!

Today I wanted to do something a little different. Rather than my typical, talk-about-food-and-give-a-recipe, I an going to do a product review! There are soooo many different products out on the market today, and some of them may seem like they are wholesome and nutritious choices, but in reality, the marketing gets tricky! (I've been a culprit of tricky marketing countless times.)

But the product I want to talk about today are Kind Bars! Many of my friends and various other blogs that I read have highlighted these "granola-type" bars, but until a week ago, I had never tried one.

But one taste is all you need, because after that and I knew I might have to be picking up a few more flavors to try.

In my first Kind Bar Experience, I tried the dark chocolate cherry cashew + antioxidants

Sorry about the glare

Oh my goodness, was it delicious! So many cashews wrapped up in a not-too-sweet dark chocolate with just the right about of cherry-chewiness (and I'm not the biggest fan of cherries). I ate my bar as a mid-morning snack, which held me over quite nicely until lunch. Many times, I get a little worried about eating a snack around 10 am because I'm afraid I will be too full for lunch. Not the case at all! It held over my hunger and I was still hungry for lunch at 12:30!

An overview of the nutritional facts of that bar are:

Kcal: 180
Total Fat: 9 g
Saturated Fat: 2.5 g
Carbohydrate Total: 22 g
Fiber: 3 g
Protein: 4 g

It's very low in saturated fat, and the other source of fats are healthy fats from the cashews. The best thing about these bars are the ingredient label... no long, hard to pronounce chemical words here! Everything in the bars are all natural and non-GMO. So Kind bars really are "kind" to your body!

Another great thing about this company is their philosophy. On their website, they proclaim:

"KIND was founded on the principle of holistic kindness, and we pride ourselves on creating new paths that avoid false compromises. Instead of "Or" we say "And". We choose healthy and tasty, convenient and wholesome, economically sustainable and socially impactful."

Not only do they have a wonderful philosophy, their products are delicious and a perfect choice to satisfy your mid-meal cravings.

If you get the chance, go try a Kind Bar!
