Wholesome, Delicious Snacks from Pure Organic
What would you do if your six-year-old daughter announced she wanted to become a vegetarian? Veronica Bosgraaf went all in to support her daughter’s bold decision, and “took to the kitchen to create clean and nutritionally balanced foods that she would love.” This led Veronica to go on to develop delicious healthful bars and snacks and to found the Pure Organic company to share her products with the rest of us.
For my review, I received a wonderful assortment of Pure Organic products, including Fruit and Nut Bars, Ancient Grains Crispy Bars, Fruit & Veggie Strips, and Fruit Sandwiches. From my first bite of the Wild Blueberry Fruit and Nut Bar, I knew I was in for a real treat. Much to my delight, the blueberry flavor was front and center, and I was pleasantly surprised to find that the bar had only 190 calories and provided an impressive 6 grams of protein. Likewise, the Vanilla Almond Ancient Grains Crispy Bar tasted great and had a nice crunch, and it clocked in at 160 calories with 5 grams of protein.
I could describe each of their snacks in similar detail, but you can trust me when I tell you that everything I tried was equally delicious. I will add, though, that the Fruit Sandwiches and the Fruit & Veggie Strips are sweet enough to satisfy my worst cravings, and since they’re made with fruit and veggie purees and juices but no added sugars or sweeteners, there’s no guilt involved at all. Yay!
Of course, with the name “Pure Organic,” you’d expect that all of the ingredients that go into these products are, well, pure and organic. They’re actually USDA Certified Organic, and are also Non-GMO Project Verified, certified gluten-free, certified kosher, and vegan. No dairy or soy products are used in any of Pure Organic’s products.
In doing my research prior to writing this review, I visited the Pure Organic website to learn about the company and their products, and I found their website to be a great resource for all sorts of useful and interesting information about clean living, such as ways to reduce your energy bill, discussions of the meaning and importance of organics, ways to use less plastics, and a variety of recipes (the Cherry-Almond Scones are on my must-try list).
The time I spent browsing there was time well spent. I also discovered that Pure Organic posts recipes, promotions, and more on their Facebook page, which is well worth a visit, too.
You can purchase Pure Organic’s products through Amazon or from retailers such as Whole Foods Market, as well as directly from Pure Organic. In fact, they offer a 10% discount if you sign up for the Pure Bar Recurring Delivery program at their website, with free shipping on orders over $39.
