LUNA Bar Review/Giveaway- A More Nutritious and Delicious Alternative
>> Monday, January 24, 2011
- LUNA bars are 100% natural; no artificial flavors, colors, or preservatives.
- Each bar contains essential vitamins for women like folic acid, calcium, vitamin D, and iron: Nutrients that many women often lack in their regular diets.
- LUNA bars are low-glycemic
- No artificial sweeteners, high fructose corn syrup or trans fats, and no ingredients sourced from genetically modified organisms.
- LUNA bars have gluten free and dairy free options
LUNA bars have about 180 calories with 9-10 grams of protein and 3-4 grams of fiber. I was able to try an assortment of the new LUNA bars coming to stores this month, like the Chocolate Dipped Coconut and Chocolate Chunk, (perfect for my sweet tooth and chocolate addiction) and Vanilla Almond and Blueberry Bliss (great paired with fruit or yogurt for a breakfast on-the-go).
The other protein bars I've been eating are basically a nougat texture with a chocolate coating, (not my favorite texture in the world, but I didn't know any differently) so that is what I was expecting from LUNA. I definitely wasn't expecting a crunchy/chewy granola bar texture, which is what I was thrilled to find in LUNA bars. And OH MY WORD...the taste is incredible. There wasn't one that I didn't LOVE. They were better than my favorite granola bar, and every one was tons better than the protein bars I was eating before. The Chocolate Dipped Coconut was by far my favorite. It was amazing! In fact, I had to write LUNA right afterwards to ask them if they were in stores yet. It looks like a granola bar dipped in chocolate on one side, sprinkled with coconut, and I can't tell you how much it beat my old protein bars in taste. I will NEVER go back.
I also tried LUNA's new bar: LUNA protein. LUNA protein has all the great nutritional benefits as the regular LUNA bar, but has 12 grams of protein. AND...still under 200 calories. So I thought for sure that these higher protein bars would for sure have that nougat/gritty texture protein-bar taste that I was used to. They didn't. I was shocked to find a little bit of crunch to them and no unpleasant grittiness or protein aftertaste. And...you know when you buy a chocolate chip cookie dough protein bar, (or worse-chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream) and there's no cookie dough in it? Or mint chocolate chip ice cream with like 4 chocolate chips in your bowl? That's the worst! Thank you LUNA. I loved the Mint Chocolate Chip and Cookie Dough because they actually HAD chocolate chips in them! And a good amount too, (not like my old Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough protein bars; if I found 2 chocolate chips in the whole bar it was a good day).So if you're pregnant and having those sweet cravings or breasfeeding and need a healthy snack, (or me and need to lose the pregnancy pounds), LUNA bars are a great tasting alternative to high sugar candy bars with no nutritional value. You can pick one (or in my case, a box) up at your local grocery store, Target, or Walmart. Or, you can them online directly from LUNA here.
LUNA is giving away a sample pack of their bars (both their regular LUNA and LUNA protein) to one lucky reader! You'll be able to try all of the flavors I did, as well as some additional flavors.

My go-to snack is nuts. I love to just grab a few almonds or walnuts. They fill me up and keep me going!

I "like" Milan Maternity on Facebook.
When I'm normal as opposed to creating another human being I try and have healthy go-to snacks like carrots, raisins, any type of fruit esp berries, or if I have sweet tooth I go for something like sorbet. Because it pretends to be healthy with all it's fruity goodness plus I can only eat a few spoonfuls at a time. But since I'm not normal right now... Raw vegetables refuse to be in my diet. I've been going for nuts a lot more lately and toast with peanut butter haha.
this was probably way too much info. sorry.
I signed up for the newsletter. These things look good I'd really like to try them. In fact I'm kind of craving them even though I don't know what they taste like. is that possible?

I don't really have a good to-go snack! I make myself oatmeal every morning now that I'm pregnant so that's all I can say! Having a snack bar like the Luna bar sounds like something that would be great to keep in my purse.
