Balance Bar Review and Giveaway

_MG_9645

A few weeks ago, I was sent a box of Balance Bars to try out.  Having a lot of family members who are involved in some sort of physical activity, I knew that these would come very handy.

The bars included in the box were Chocolate Peanut Butter and Cookie Dough.  Now I love anything chocolate and peanut butter, but I'm not a big fan of cookie dough anything, regardless, I gave each a try and passed the remaining around to the other family members.

"To inspire our consumers to lead active, well-rounded lives by providing great-tasting and healthy,
convenient nutrition for lasting energy"

"Balance is all about creating convenient healthy foods that taste great and can be enjoyed while you do whatever it is you love to do. It's a busy world out there and we all need fuel to help us achieve our goals and better enjoy our active, on-the-go lives. Balance strives to be there to help you - the athletes of life - enjoy what keeps you going."

The great thing about these bars is that they are low in calories and high in nutrition and vitamins.

The first one I tried was the Chocolate Peanut Butter and I loved it, it was like eating a candy bar but without feeling guilty.  It tasted great and knowing that it was only 200 calories made it even better.

The second one I tried was the Cookie Dough and I really didn't like it, but like I said above, I'm not a cookie dough fan.  Other family members liked the cookie dough and one didn't like the peanut butter, that would be my brother but he is not a big fan of chocolate and peanut butter....crazy I know.

Balance Bar doesn't just have these two flavors, they have a huge variety of yummy sounding bars.  From Blueberry Acai to Chocolate Raspberry and so on.

All in all, I really liked these bars and would certainly have them again.

Balance Bar has been very gracious and is offering one lucky winner a chance to try out some samples of these yummy bars. 

Contest is open to US residents only!

Please leave a comment and include your email so that I can contact you if you are chosen as the winner.

I will draw a winner through Random.org on Wednesday,  13th November 2013.  Winner will receive their prize directly from the folks at Balance Bar.

Good Luck!!!

I've tried Luna bars before but never Balance bars! Guilt free treats are always a win though!

I'm always on the look out for a good protein bar for my kids. They get so caught up in activities that they don't want to sit down for a meal and then they get cranky. I usually buy Luna Bars for my oldest for her to keep in her purse because her mood swings when she has low sugar are very noticeable. Thank you for the opportunity to try something new! :)
