Nutritious and naturally delicious
They’re almost too good to be true: treats that are nutritious and naturally delicious! Quinoa and oats offer whole-grain nutrition and fiber, while hemp and chia seeds, almonds and almond butter serve up nutritious fats and protein. Medjool dates, bursting with natural sweetness, provide minerals like magnesium and a number of important B vitamins to support the respiration and metabolism of every single cell in your body. And the spices contain beneficial phytonutrients. You won’t get any of that from junk food! Pop ‘em in your mouth and enjoy.
