Kelp Krunch: Stock up Now!

Want a super healthy super delicious portable snack?  Try  Kelp Krunch, from Maine Coast Sea Vegetables.  July 20 is the last day to order before they close down for the season, not to reopen again until September 4, so be sure to stock up.  They're great for camping, travel, kids' lunches, and any time you need an energizing delicious snack.
I love these!  They are low in calories and high in nutrition and also organic, vegan, and gluten free--the perfect snack.  They are made with sesame seeds and kelp, and are sweetened with rice syrup.  They have a wonderful crunchy texture and a salty-sweet flavor and I could probably eat a whole box they're so good, so luckily they are individually wrapped to help with restraint.  Those of you that can control yourselves may buy it in bulk.
Sesame seeds are very high in calcium and seaweed is loaded with minerals and nutrients.  I ordered three cases and after my first bite realized I should have ordered more.  I've never tried the Ginger flavor, but I can highly recommend the original. A portion of the sales goes to Allied Whale for whale conservation and research.  Stock up on these and other fantastic sea vegetable products HERE.

Raw Revolution Bars: Organic. Vegan. Raw. Fabulous.


Raw Revolution bars are among the best raw bars I've tried yet. I promptly ordered two cases after trying the Raspberry Chocolate and the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (seriously--it really tastes like it to me). Next on my list are the Coconut Agave and the Spirulina. These are great to have in your bag for those moments when you're out longer than you thought and need some fuel, or just when you're craving something sweet and yummy but want to stay health conscious. They'd also be great for those on a gluten free diet and just anyone wanting to eat clean.

Raw Revolution bars are the brainchild of a single mom who made these as healthy snacks for her son. Friends soon encouraged her to start a company--a daunting task for a busy nurse and mom of an active toddler--but she did it, and here we are today with this great option.

My four year old considers them candy bars, so they have to be kept out of reach or he will eat as many as he can before I discover him in his little trail of wrappers (twice now). I don't know how he can even finish one, I never can. They are super filling and satisfying and the perfect blend of everything.
