It's a "GNU" Giveaway!

The peeps at Gnu (My friends in Fiber!) were nice enough to send me bars galore and I'd like to share them ALL with you! Before I get to the contest details you know I have to tell you all a little bit about these filling, all natural, tasty bars.

My bar pack included this cool flyer that explains all about the GNU bars.

GNU BARS ARE:

* High Fiber: 12 g per Bar
* Made with 6 whole grains
* Only 130-140 calories
* Made with ORGANIC Whol eWheat and Kamut Flurs
* Made with Aluminum-Free Baking Powder
* Loaded with both Soluable and Insoluable Fiber
* VEGAN!!!
* Kosher

GNU BARS HAVE:

* NO High Fructose Corn Syrup
* NO Refined Sugars (except in the Chocolate Brownie Bar)
* NO cholesterol
* NO Trans Fats
* NO Hydrogenated Oils
* NO Artificial Preservatives
* NO Artificial Colorings
* NO Sugar Alcohols
* NO Dairy or Whey
* NO Maltodextrin (MSG)

It doesn't get ANY CLEANER/HEALTHIER than that. The BEST part is that depending on the flavor, majority are only TWO Weight Watchers Points each!!

* You can click on any of the images below to make them bigger.

    I have been dying to try the PB flavor. No one ever has that one! I've only eaten them straight, but they could easily go well with some CC or yogurt, I'm sure.

    Hi Danica,
    I absolutely love Gnu bars and I have an emergency stash in the car;-) My favorite flavors are banana walnut and cinnamon raisin and I most enjoy eating them plain.

    Thanks so much for the opportunity!

    You know, after hearing your review of the orange cranberry, I remember how much I liked that flavor. I'd change my choices to banana walnut and ORANGE CRANBERRY instead of the cinnamon raison! :)

    I would love to try the peanut butter, and I already know the cinnamon raisin is delicious! I like them by themselves but sometimes I also crumble 1/2 on top of my morning bowl of oats.
