Zone Perfect Bars Review and Giveaway

When I was at Type A Con in June, I had the pleasure of talking with the friendly folks from Zone Perfect.  I've always enjoyed their bars - they have great flavor choices and as a runner are the type of snack I love to grab when I'm on the go.  But did you know they have a new line of bars out?  Called Perfectly Simple, they are limited ingredient nutrition bars that are gluten free and still provide a great dose of protein (10 grams) to tide over your hunger.  Flavors include Peanut Crunch, Toasted Coconut, and Cranberry Almond.

Check out the back of the Peanut Crunch bar.  Just six ingredients: peanut butter, invert evaported cane syrup, soy protein isolate, date paste, rolled oats, and coconut.  It sounds like the sort of protein bar you could make in your own kitchen, with wholesome ingredients and without all those unpronounceable preservatives (and also without all the work!). 

I often don't like the boys to eat diet or protein bars.  Sometimes because I think they have too much protein, sometimes because they have too many things I don't recognize, and still other times because there is just so much sugar.  But Zone Perfect's new Perfectly Simple line?  Well here is a bar I feel good about sharing with my three boys.  Pierce especially says he loves the peanut butter.

They are a great size and tuck easily into a day backpack pocket.  I know this because we took some to the beach with us.  They made a great snack when we were on the run and being active.  And they taste wonderful!
