Travel Snack - A Healthy Alternative
Ok, this may seem silly but I’m always looking for something healthy to eat when I travel. Unfortunately, the unhealthy stuff is so much easier to find. I’m not the Foursquare mayor of “Pagassus on the Fly” at Midway airport for nothing. Sometimes, if I had a healthy snack, that would be all I needed. The good news is I think I found one.
Wings of Nature (TM) sent me (yes, consider this a disclosure that I received a few free ones) some of their new, organic snack bars and I have to tell you, they’re awesome. I particularly loved the “Cranberry Crunch Bar.” It was really very tasty with lots of sesame seeds, raisins and cranberries. It was soft but doesn’t stick to my teeth. Apparently it is organic, they haven’t added refined sugar, it is trans-fat free and gluten free. It was 170 calories with zero cholesterol and only 20mg of sodium.
They also make other types including “Espresso Coffee Bar” or my other fave; “Almond Raisin Bar.”
I’m on airplanes all the time so this is a welcome alternative to that little package of pretzels. I would certainly buy some of these (I understand you can get them at Whole Foods and Walgreens).
