Why do I love them?
Everything made by The GFB is top notch. From their Oatmeal to their Bites & everything in between, they never disappoint. I first discovered their Gluten Free Bites in 2018, before I had any food restrictions. I loved them back then. They were a yummy 'lil treat I bought myself every time I took a trip to TJ Maxx (which is a lot). But, since going gluten & dairy-free this past July, The GFB has become a staple in my lifestyle. Its so nice to know that absolutely anything I pick up by The GFB will without a doubt be okay for me to eat. All of their products are made with real, protein packed ingredients, and are Non-GMO Verified, Certified Gluten-Free, Certified Vegan, Certified Kosher, soy free & mostly organic. If that wasn't enough? They've also become a Certified B Corp. & make all of their products in their own ZERO-WASTE facility. What does that mean? It means that 90% of all their waste needs to be recycled, composted, up-cycled, or reused... In 2018, they avoided putting 118 TONS of waste into landfills by composting, recycling & reusing everything that they were able to. Which, now more than ever, is ridiculously important. The GFB is incredibly transparent with everything they do & everything their company stands for (which I love!) When you buy The GFB, not only do you have great taste in snacks, but you're supporting a company who cares about their employees, their community, and our environment.

My Favorites?
Ahhh, these are dangerously delish. If you're a snacker like me, you'll fall in love with them at first taste. (These are what made me love The GFB!) They come in 7 different flavors. (Dark Chocolate Coconut & Coconut Cashew are my fave so far!) They're great to pop on a smoothie bowl
for a little extra protein & flavor. Put a few in your lunch box before you head out of the house for the day. Eat them all by themselves, or maybe even on a yogurt parfait.
Okay, before this, it had been YEARS since I had oatmeal! Previously, I've only eaten processed & artificially flavored instant oatmeal... For me, The GFB Oatmeal is an absolute GAME-CHANGER. If you saw my Instagram story, you knew first. The packaging is flat. It can fit in my friggan back pocket okay. THEN when you're ready to eat, you just push the little sides together, and it turns into the cutest little bowl! I seriously love the convenience of it. I can just heat up some water, throw it in there, and take it with me when I'm in a rush to get out of the house. OR, it can easily be brought with me in my purse or diaper bag for a nutritious meal while I'm out and about! With 10 grams of protein, it keeps me full for hours. Plus, it's made with whole, real ingredients, and doesn't have any added sugar or artificial flavors. My favorite way to eat it is with fresh, warm apples, cinnamon & chia seeds on top.
They're filling & delicious. And with 12 grams of protein, the regular sized Gluten Free Bars are perfect after a good workout... while the mini bars are great for a quick pick-me-up between breakfast and lunch. I love pairing them with fresh fruit! Unlike other protein bars, The Gluten Free Bar doesn't have that dry & chalky feel. My favorite flavors are the Chocolate Peanut Butter, Peanut Butter & Dark Chocolate Almond!
