Bumble Bar Review


Have you ever taken a bite of something and immediately knew that it was good for you? Did you feel like you were actually ENJOYING something that was HEALTHY for you? Could it be possible that this could happen???

Well, I have met a company that offers just this kind of snack bar. Let me introduce you...these are called Bumble Bars and they are delicious, nutritious and just plain GOOD. Bumble Bars are made with all organic ingredients that are nutritiously sound for you and your family's bodies! If you have diet sensitivities in your family, this is also a perfect solution for you as Bumble Bars are gluten free, dairy free and wheat free! Wow! I have several friends who have children who are on gluten free diets and know how difficult it is to actually eat gluten free. It is good to know that products like Bumble Bars are available to suit their needs. Some other great facts about Bumble Bar's ingredients are:
  • Bumble Bars are rich in flax seeds, which contain an abundance of life-enhancing Omega 3 Essential Fatty Acids (EFAs). Omega 3 EFAs maintain healthy cell structure and help protect against heart disease, cancer, arthritis and more. EFAs are thought to bolster your energy, improve hormone regulation, improve immunity and reduce stress. Flax seeds also represent one of the best dietary sources of lignans, a class of phytoestrogens that nutritionists say protect against breast, colon and prostate cancers.

  • Bumble Bars are made with calcium-rich organic sesame seeds to help build strong bones. Sesame seeds contain three times as much calcium as an equivalent amount of milk. And studies show that sesamin, a lignan found only in sesame seeds, is a strong antioxidant that fights free radicals and helps with your cholesterol.

  • Bumble Bars are rich in fiber. Nutritionists say the soluble kind of fiber found in flax seeds can help lower cholesterol and regulate blood sugar levels.

  • Bumble Bars are made without genetically modified ingredients and are pesticide-free.
Bumble Bar generously sent me 6 different bars to review and taste. I was sent:
The Original
Chai With Almonds
Lushus Lemon



Can I just tell you here that the flavors of these bars are incredible??? My two year old gingerly took a bite, then came running back asking for more!!! She is a fussy eater and doesn't really gravitate towards healthy food, so I was glad to see that she was liking Bumble Bars!

Purchasing Bumble Bars is really easy...especially if you would like a nice variety. They offer variety boxes that have 15 bars in each box...reasonably priced at under $30 a box. Not bad for organic and vegan, huh?
In case you were wondering, like I was, how did Bumble Bars begin? Here is their story...

"Elizabeth (Liz) Ward got her inspiration for the Bumble Bar one day while hiking. "I'm an avid hiker. Before I got engrossed in this business, I used to go hiking almost every weekend," she says. " I lived out in the woods without electricity or running water, and I would hike eight miles every day. Being out there, it seemed like this incredible oxymoron that it's so beautiful in nature, but at the same time hikers are eating food that harms the planet (i.e. conventionally grown and/or dairy-based foods). I wanted to develop an all-organic, gluten-free food that people could take out into the wilderness."

In 1995, she sold her first Bumble Bar. But this tasty, sesame seed-based treat isn't just for taking out into the woods. It's great as an afternoon snack or dessert. And kids love it, too. The bar passed the most important taste test: Liz's 13-year-old son Jed loves the bar. "It's soooo good you can't even believe!" he exclaims.

A few months later, Liz's partner, Glenn Ward, joined the company. His role is to create a value-led business that uses sustainable practices. Liz and Glenn are highly committed to a variety of social issues, including women's rights, recycling and strengthening their local community of Spokane, Washington. In the last year, they have donated thousands of bars to numerous local and national charity events." As we grow, we plan to get even more involved in these issues," Liz says.

"I've always loved food," Liz adds. "My mother was a great cook and I grew up in the kitchen helping her. In the Midwest in high school, I helped out cooking at a soup kitchen for the homeless. Food is something that has always been positive for me. I love sharing food with people; I feel it brings a lot of joy and quality into peoples' lives. It's incredibly rewarding to know that thousands of people are out there enjoying our all-organic, vegan, gluten-free bars."

Bumble Bars are truly products that were created for those who desire high-quality snacking options. I am the WORST when it comes to choosing healthy snacks...I reach for whatever is available. Having Bumble Bars in the house has definitely been nice!

In my opinion, Bumble Bars are truly a great snack for anyone, on any day for any occasion. I know that Bumble Bar is devoted to providing us with healthy options and making those options taste GOOD. Visit Bumble Bar today and see what they have to offer you!!! I guarantee you won't be disappointed! Happy snacking! :)

The Pickle Juice Company Review

How many of you are super athletic and active during the summer months? I used to be...prior to having children and now, it seems I chase them all around so that counts as something, right? One concern that many athletes and active people have during the summer is hydration and the risk of dehydration, especially if you live in a hot/tropical climate. We life in NY state so we have four full seasons, our summers can be hot and humid and if you are active, that can be challenging. The other issue that many run into is having a sports drink that can replenish and refresh their system that is gluten free and healthy for them too. Food allergies can limit the choices when it comes to hydration drinks. So, today I am going to introduce you to The Pickle Juice Company . This company specializes in gluten-free sports drinks that will stop muscle cramps in their tracks and keep you hydrated and refreshed no matter what activities you are participating in this summer!

Carmex Healing Lotion & Healing Cream Review

Because I am a member of the Carmex Blog Squad , I am informed of and privileged to bring you reviews of Carmex's newest products! This is something that I have been doing for awhile and have really grown to love the Carmex brand. The newest products that have been introduced by Carmex are lovely and will definitely impress you as they have me. Because I am a mom, I wash my hands frequently. After diaper changes, before cleaning wounds, bathroom breaks, preparing food...all this requires clean hands. Because I usually apply lotion while I am moving and going from one thing to the next, I do not like a greasy lotion. I HATE applying a cream and having to "dry" my hands for the next half hour. What a perfectly good waste of time that is. So, I was wondering what Carmex would offer me in way of fast and quickly absorbing lotion. Before I continue, here is a bit more about Carmex for those of you who are new to their brand... Carmex® lip balm was invented in 1...

Cafe Press Review

Are any of you married to a computer guy ? Do you lovingly call him a "geek" sometimes? (my hand is raised here...LOL!) My husband is the most wonderful man in the world. He is funny, sincere, loving and VERY handy with the computer. I have issues sometimes with coding and am often heard calling "Honey? Can you come look at my blog? I don't know how to fix this!!!!" And, my charming prince comes to rescue me. My darling is going to be 31 in a week and I am SO excited to be able to celebrate another birthday with him. He also shares a birthday with our daughter which makes the day twice as fun. :) She has been talking about her birthday for WEEKS and cannot wait! This next review item is for him so if you know him (and I am hoping he doesn't read my blog for the next week :/) don't tell him about this!!!!!!!! If you are looking for perfect, unique and personalized gifts for someone special in your life I will tell you that after this post, you...
