| Crackers that needs no company=Norway's Jarlsberg Cheese Crisps (mild nuttyish-cow's milk cheese added to semolina flour crisps)...crunchy snacks with the added protein pop of 5 grams per 120 calorie serving. Available in re-sealable bags-but why bother---shareable with all. We tried the mildly spiced up chipotle pepper flavor-adds interest and a tad heat. |

Saffron Road
roasted crunchy chickpeas- salty snacks take their delicious texture satisfying crunchiness and laden on rich Fair Trade sourced dark chocolate-straight up or chai spiced, and sweet vanilla inflected salty caramel-or roasted honey coatings.
Each are truly yummy-and imo-appeal to younger kids who might not like spicier versions of these bites.
All treats, available in re-sealable bags- are naturally protein packed (3-4 grams protein/130 calories serving) - gluten free, non-GMO, certified Halal, Kosher-and somewhat filling too-great option to snack on between meals when wanting to curb hunger pains. Widely available...

- Rachel Pauls Foods are low FODMAP...gluten free, non-GMO-meaning non irritating for those plagued by certain sensitivity GI issues. The HAPPY BARS-protein (8 grams) ...come in 5 appealing flavors-but the Orange Chocolate Ecstasy=our personal fav! Good for snacks...or in our case-post workout help when we're too lazy for anything else...this particular flavor is a teeny tiny tad fragrant spicy-citrus with semi-sweet chocolate chips, whole grain brown rice protein, almonds, organic oats, organic flax seed -vanilla, salt, & orange oil in the mix.

Protein2O, -thirst quenching -fruity tasting pumped up water-reminded us of now sold everywhere low calorie BAI-which we also tasted (first) at a media event-and figured some big company would eventually takeover (and did- Dr. Pepper Snapple ). Ditto here. For thirsty consumers wanting more than a water based anti-oxidants blast-and worthy alternative to high calorie smoothies...these unique whey protein isolate added waters-deliver only 60 calories-AND 15 grams of protein per bottle-AND with natural flavors too. (Sweetened up with sucralose-which is what Splenda is).
The 9 flavors lean tropical-exotic...like Peach Mango, Acai Blueberry Pomegranate, Dragonfruit Blackberry, Kawaiola Coconut-as well as-Classic Lemonade, Mixed Berry, and Tropical Coconut. Sam's Club, Target, carries it as well as Walmart, CVS-Rite-Aid stores, |
