Food Product Review: Gnu Bars

I am normally not a big fan of "bars", but this one I had to try. This is a bar that claims to taste good, and contain 12 grams of fiber! Sounds almost too good to be true. I was able to find one at my local Trader Joe's. I have to say...this bar tasted really good!! Here is some information I found about it on www.supermarketsaavy.com: (Not only does Gnu Bars taste good...they have no artificial ingredients. They are made from 100% whole, natural grains and they come in a variety of flavors. The fiber in Gnu Bars come from a blend organic whole wheat flour: oats; wheat bran; psyllium; flax; millet; and soy flour. The company says that each bar are about 38% whole grain. ) The bar I tried contained 130 calories, 3 gm fat, 12gm fiber, and 4 gm of protein. This was a great afternoon snack for me. I will definately buy these again!

If you like GNU, you might like to try the new Kardea Wellness bar. 7g protein, 7g fiber, lower glycemic sweetening approach (agave, brown rice syrup, fiber from oats, psyllium and acacia). Two are vegan, all 4 are vegetarian, designed to enable a heart healthy, cholesterol managing lifestyle. Glad to send you a taste sample--email at rleighton@kardeanutrion.com.
