Kind Bars Review

Ok, seriously... as far as "less ingredients" goes... KIND is right up there with Larabar and Clif C. But with more crunch!

Here's what the "Kind" folks sent me :) :

KIND Plus Protein Almond, Walnut and Macadamia
KIND Plus Antioxidants Cranberry and Almond
KIND Fruit and Nut Delight
KIND Fruit and Nut Almond and Apricot

KIND is still a fairly new company, conceived in 2003 by CEODaniel Lubetzky. The company's Holistic Kindness principle is one I can really get behind: "For us “being KIND,” means to “Be KIND to your body, your taste buds, and the world.”®"

The website also has a link to theirKIND Movementinitiative, where they encourage acts of KINDNESS, and where you can win up to $25,000 for the cause of your choice.

Ok, back to the snacks!

I'm obsessed with KIND Plus Almond, Walnut and Macadamia. Tons of protein and fiber, and the sugar is nice and low, just the way I like it!

The calorie count is just about right for me for a snack. And with all of this protein, I don't need to supplement it with anything else. A KIND bar will keep me satisfied for hours!
