With the word “Raw” being a health-food industry buzz word for the past handful of years, it can be quite a challenge trying to figure out if the product you are eating is truly good for you, or is just another gimmick. And, if it is as nutritious as it states, it often will taste “earthy” and “healthy” – two words that aren’t exactly positive ways to express the taste of foods.
However, “raw” products really can pack a powerful nutritional punch and if you find the right brands, can taste really good as well.
Take Raw Revolution bars, for example. Raw, vegan, and non-GMO, these Organic Nutritional Bars will have you jumping on the raw bandwagon in no time!
THE PRODUCT: Raw Revolution bars take the idea of raw to the next level. Raw, 100% organic, dairy-free, vegan, and non-GMO, each bar is packed with nutrition, contains a plethora of high-antioxidant and superfood ingredients, and is often priced less expensive (per ounce) than their closest NON-organic competitors. Plus, since all their ingredients are minimally processed [and therefore require less heating and cooling], they are not only better for you, but better for the environment as well.
With 14 different flavors to choose from including Almond Butter Cup and Heavenly Hazelnut Chocolate, whether you are in the mood for something sweet or more on the savory side, Raw Rev has a bar that is sure to please.
NUTRITION-WISE: While there are a number of definitions and opinions on what constitutes something being “raw”, Raw Revolution takes it to mean food that is uncooked, unprocessed and organic. None of their ingredients or products are processed or cooked in their facility. However, some of the ingredients, such as the organic cocoa that is dutch processed, is technically “cooked”, making all of their products range from 80%-100% raw. (Due to the fact that they receive their ingredients from a number of different sources, they cannot state the exact raw percent of each ingredient used.)
Besides being raw, all of the Raw Rev bars are densely packed with high quality nutrition, helping you to feel full and satisfied thanks to the ample amounts of protein, fiber, and healthy fats in every serving. You will also find sprouted super foods in every bite, taking the health benefits one step even further.
*Filled with tons of good-for-you ingredients, healthy fats, fiber, and protein, as long as your little one has a good set of teeth to be able to chew the nuts that are present throughout Raw Rev’s bars, I would recommend these bars to people of all ages (generally 18+ months).
WHERE TO BUY: To find the retail location nearest you, please visit Raw Rev’s Store Locator or buy them directly from their Online Store.
FINAL THOUGHTS: I’ll be the first to admit that a lot of the “raw” bars I’ve tasted all are about the same. Packed with dates, and a handful or two of nuts and fruit, they can get pretty old pretty quick. So to tell you I was pleasantly surprised with Raw Revolution’s bars is quite the feat.
Filled with a wide variety of superfoods, and providing 14 different flavors to choose from including both sweet and slightly “savory”, these bars are great for breakfast, as a mid-day snack, or even for dessert. Plus, the fact that they are organic, dairy-free, vegan, non-GMO, and [of course] raw, makes these bars an extremely healthy and delicious food for any time of day.
