I am always in need of an afternoon-pick-me-up. I usually grab a protein bar or granola bar if I know I will be gone awhile. While bars hold me over when hunger strikes, they aren’t the best thing for me. I used to eat the “healthy” protein bars that were chocolate covered and contain artificial flavors and ingredients. How did I not know that these bars had the same nutrition value as a candy bar? Luckily I was fortunate enough to be send a few flavors of the wonderful Larabars! All natural ingredients and no artificial flavors in this jam-packed goodness. They only contain few ingredients, and I can pronounce every single one! Buy them now and replace them with your go-to snacks. My favorite flavors are blueberry muffin and chocolate chip cookie dough, but I’m sure all the flavors are just as amazing!
