Vega Whole Food Vibrancy Bars are my new favourite raw food
I really didn’t expect Vega Whole Food Vibrancy Bars to be that insanely delicious!
I’ve eaten many natural protein bars, and some are much better than others. In fact, I reviewed a few that I quite liked here: Healthy and tasty protein bars
The new Vega Whole Food Vibrancy Bars are incredible. Not only are you getting 9 grams of protein (which represents 18 per cent of your daily requirements), you are also getting a bar made from loads of raw foods!
The bars come in three flavours: Green Synergy, Nutritive Original and Chocolate Decadence. My favourite by far is the Chocolate Decadence. It not only tastes great (and I’m not really a huge chocolate fan), it also provides you with the antioxidant benefits from 70 per cent cocoa (dark chocolate)!
Each Vega Whole Food Vibrancy Bar is a unique, delicious blend of all-natural, raw, organic and enzymatically-active plant-based super foods including sprouted buckwheat, sprouted almonds, acai, Salba and hemp seeds.

Review: Popcorn Indiana is my favourite popcorn!
My popcorn history is a long dry road to finding the perfect popcorn!
I’ve always loved popcorn and stopped eating it a long time ago, but now I’m making up for lost time.
You see, I stopped eating movie popcorn a long time ago since learning what kind of oil they cook their popcorn in. I’ve tried making stove pop popcorn at home from scratch, but it just never really tasted like much because it’s hard to coat dry popcorn with butter and salt. I bought a popcorn machine to make the air cooked popcorn, but it tasted like air. I’ve also gone to those franchise stores that sell popcorn, but I never know what they put in their popcorn and it’s quite pricey. I’ve perused the aisle of my grocery store and either found popcorn with a lot of crap ingredients or healthy popcorn that was quite frankly not very tasty.

Review: New Moon Cookies are outrageously delicious!
There is nothing quite like home-baked cookies to cheer you up (don’t you think?).
The smell and the anticipation of those warm, chewy and sugary treats is enough to put a smile on anyone’s face.
I’m not much of a baker, okay, I’m lying, I REALLY don’t enjoy baking as much as cooking. Baking requires you to be very precise and you cannot just substitute one ingredient for another on a whim, you actually have to follow the instructions to the letter. I’m more of a carefree spirit in the kitchen and never hesitate to change things up. That might work well for cooking, but that spells disaster when it comes to baking.
That’s why I like finding people who are passionate about baking and eat without reserve what they have to offer.

Healthy and tasty protein bars
I had stopped eating energy bars because the aftertaste often made me sick and when you read the list of ingredients of most bars you realize they are filled with ingredients you really don’t want to put into my body like: high-fructose corn syrup, hydrogenated oils and artificial flavors.
For a long while I just ate more nuts when I needed a boost of protein mid-morning or before going to the gym.
I’ve recently found a number of protein bars that are healthy and tasty. I’ve even found a few that could be entirely customized to your taste buds or nutritional needs.
Thanks to these new finds, I’ve been able to go back to eating protein bars because I’ll tell you that travelling with one of those is so practical and I never hesitate to grab one when I have an early morning meeting that prevents me from taking the time to eat a proper breakfast.
