Review: Don't Go Nuts Whitewater Chomp Nut Free Energy Bar

I was aimless strolling through my local Meijer recently (I'm not going to kid myself, I'm always aimless strolling) and I wandered through the nutrition bar aisle and noticed that there was an entirely new line of bars sitting on the shelf.  Curiosity piqued, I went in for a closer look and found this Don't Go Nuts Whitewater Chomp Nut Free Energy Bar on sale for roughly $1.50.  The world seems to be filled with people with allergies to something these days and in this case, this bar caters to those with nut allergies as it's nut free.  It's also gluten free, kosher and organic.  Packed into this 1.58 ounces are 180 calories and two grams of protein, although the website says there are three grams.  What a dilemma...packaging vs. website!

Review: Go Raw Real Live Apricot Bar

Who doesn't like to Go Raw from time to time?  I mean, nothing feels better than having a cool breeze on the ol' bare skin.  I'm just going to stop there before this turns into a late night Cinemax movie.  Plus, I don't want to scare away any readers.  Anyway, as part of my many time aforementioned Fresh Thyme trip, I picked up this Go Raw Real Live Apricot Bar for $0.99 to add to the growing Go Raw product review collection.  Like the last bar, this one clocks in at a measly 0.46 ounces and also packs a tiny 50 calories with one gram of protein.  It's all natural, gluten free, nut free, organic and wheat free as well.  Long story short...it's RAW and REAL.

Review: Go Raw Live Pumpkin Bar

Of all the bars I picked up in my Fresh Thyme shopping binge, today's bar (along with some others of the same ilk, but in different flavors) is definitely the most interesting of what I picked up for $0.99.  I mean it was interesting in terms of size and composition.  I'm not sure I've ever seen anything like this Go Raw Live Pumpkin Bar before in the over one thousand reviews that I've done on this blog.  I mentioned its size and it clocks in at a measly 0.46 ounces.  In that tiny package is 60 calories and two grams of 100% organic protein.  If you are interested in all the other health metrics, and I know a lot of people are, this is also gluten free, nut free, raw, vegan and wheat free.  They also tag this on the wrapper as "Real Live Food" too.

Review: Udi's Gluten Free Blueberry Muffins

Gluten Free seems to be all the rage these days as I constantly see gluten free products in the store.  Thankfully, I don't have a gluten allergy, but the fact that I don't have the allergy doesn't mean that I can try out gluten free products and that leads me to try out these samples that I received in the Udi's Gluten Free Blueberry Muffins.  Each muffin container comes with four muffins and each muffin itself is three ounces.  Each muffin has 240 calories and is of course, gluten free and also dairy, nut and soy free.  It's also whole grain, so woo-hoo!  What a "healthy" treat!
