I wrote in my new Examiner post yesterday about Think Thin & Think Fruit Bars. They are on sale at Kroger this week for $1/each! That is 50% off!! I stocked up, as I know the Think Thin Bars are great to have on hand in a situation where there is no safe food available for Jon. They don’t replace a meal for him, he is a growing boy, but they do hold him over with the 20g of protein they have per bar.
I bought some Think Fruit Bars for myself and gave the Cashew Acai Protect bar a try today. I was very impressed! These taste very similar, if not the same, as Lara Bars! The bar had a great flavor & texture. It was full of nuts and has 160 mg of Omega 3s per serving! They are dairy & gluten-free. This bar has only 8g of fat, as compared with Lara Bars, which have 10+ grams of fat. The fat is coming from nuts, so not a bad thing. The bar has 190 calories, 6 grams of fiber and 3g of protein. The regular price on these bars at Kroger is $2/each, which is a little steep, in my opinion. I don’t mind paying between $1 – $1.50 for bars like this. I would recommend this bar. đ Another great go-to product for those on a gluten-free diet.
See all the nuts?

My son and me, November 2000. This is before we were gluten-free/diagnosed Celiac.
Gluten-free is Life 
not the most creative answer to your question but I would like to win because I have never tried the black pepper variety or the sticks/twigs! đ
Hey, that is a good answer! đ
I love the Mary’s Gone Crackers crackers! They travel well and I have taken them on trips many times because they’re sturdy and less likely to break than other GF crackers. They also taste good!!
They do travel very well. đ Great taste & go well with all kinds of toppings.
I would love to win because I recently tried the original verision and fell in love! Can’t wait to see what other flavors taste like =]
Thanks for entering! They are very tasty. đ
[…] Jon. I usually ask him what he prefers. Sometimes it is just a snack like yogurt or a Think Thin bar. He doesn’t always have to have the equivalent of what the rest of the kids are […]
