When I go on one of my weekly excursions, my second question after asking where we are going is always, "What are we going to eat?" Lately, we have gotten into a more routine menu, stuff that is lightweight, easy to prepare, and is fulfilling. One of my favorite things to eat is a Nature's Bakery Fig Bar. I know the first thing that probably comes to mind are those Fig Newtons your parents used to keep in the pantry. I think most of my friends hated them growing up. Well I have always liked the figs, but Fig Newtons were just not a good option for me. They are artificial, enriched, and full of other junk. Gross!! Well the answer to all of this stumbled on me while I was working in the cafe one day a few months ago. I was restocking the candy as usual, and focusing on my "organic corner" as I like to call it - organic gummy worms, and starburst are amazing btw - I saw something called a Fig Bar, it was peach-apricot so I wasn't too sure about it and didn't try it. Well a few days passed, and I couldn't get this mysterious snack out of my head, I went to grocery store and found a blueberry Fig Bar. I cannot even tell you how excited I was to try this thing!! I opened the package, not quite sure what I wouldn't find, to my surprise I saw what looked liked two large sized Fig Newtons. I took a bite, and my eyes grew wide and I smiled with joy as I had found the perfect, and healthy snack.
Fig Bars are Kosher, Non-GMO, Gluten-free, made with ancient grains, Vegan Certified, Soy free, no artificial flavors or colors, no high fructose corn syrup and SO much more!! They are everything you need for an on-the-go snack. They are packed with flavors such as, Blueberry, Raspberry, Fig, Chocolate Brownie, and Peach-Apricot. I always buy two or three of these and throw them in my pack for a trail snack, or while we are setting up camp. I simply cannot say enough good things about Fig Bars, so I will leave you with their mission statement, and the choice to try them yourselves, or miss out on the best snack ever!
