Happy Sunday! :) I hope you all have had a splendid Sunday and have been enjoying this lovely weekend. With summer classes in full swing, I live every minute of my weekends that I can, and just in general, bella vivere-live a beautiful life. To add to this beautiful day, I bring to you yet another Delightful Bites post.
Formerly known as Honest Foods, Earnest Eats prides themselves on five virtues: Delicious, Nutritious, Convenient, Sustainable and Fresh. Each of their products showcase some of the finest all-natural simple ingredients (whole grains, dried fruits, and fresh nuts and seeds) jam-packed in to one yummy treat. Not only is each snack free of preservatives and artificial ingredients, but they're all made in small batches by food loving hands. With the variety of tantalizing flavors that they offer, everyone is sure to find a new favorite! These are the perfect wholesome snack for kids and families, to munch on on your way to work, for the kids to take to school, or just to enjoy anytime.
Let's get started:

❀PACKAGING: If I had to sum it up in two words, I'd have to say that it is elegant and simple, hands down. I love the sheer fact that each of their products come in clear packaging, because you can actually see what you'll be eating before you even eat it. Also, if you look at the close up of the granola plank, just LOOK at how much love is baked into each and every single granola plank that they make. Earnest Eats doesn't hide their products behind packaging with nonsense wording, crazy use of colors, but just straight-to-the-point amazing and HONEST products. All-natural and delicious ingredients, what more could you seriously ask for? You'll know what's going to go into your mouths, your children's mouths, so on and so forth. Not to mention, they'd be a great addition to any meal, or even any lunchbox ;)
❀TASTE: Extraordinary. I can honestly say i've NEVER had a better granola bar ever! Of the two I received, my absolute favorite was....AHH such a difficult decision, but definitely the pomegranate walnut crisp. There were nice succulent chunks of pomegranate throughout the bar, and nice pieces of walnuts as well. In addition, there were popped corn (which I'm guessing were the crisps) that added that special texture as you chewed your way through the bar. Incredibly moist and chewy-I felt like if there were a granola heaven, I would've been its God. Not sure if that made any sense, but it was seriously that good. It wasn't some measly granola bar that I could gobble up in a second, but for a working female student, it was the perfect sized snack to make my tummy happy. I can't remember if it was this plank or the blueberry vanilla crackle or both, but one of them had whole almonds in them, my absolute favorite! Everything I had tasted was perfect in terms of sweetness. Not overly sweet, but just the perfect amount to really give it its kick, especially in terms of the natural sweetness you get from the dried fruits in the granola planks. The baked whole food bar was just as delicious as the planks were. Once I opened the bag, the aroma of lemon poppyseed muffins and cranberry orange muffins (my two all-time favorite flavors) ran through my mind. What's even better is that in addition to being wheat-free and vegan, this tasted like a fresh muffin, especially since I put it in the microwave for 20 minutes. It's like they read my mind and combined two of my absolute favorite flavors together into this one bar. Not only could I savor each bite that I took, but I could do so without feeling the guilt of having shoved 10 mini muffins in my face. It was pure awesomeness if you ask me.
❀Random: From their exceptional packaging and hearty&flavorful products, they're quite the company. I've already picked up various flavors at my local Whole Foods market. My new flavor of the granola planks is the maple almond crunch, while for the whole food bars, my favorite still remains the cran lemon zest, followed by the apple ginger. I'm so sad that they were out of the new chocolate flavors, but I'll be stopping by very soon to get my hands on some of those.
If you're looking for something to perk up your day, a snack after your exercise, or a treat to give to your kid, I'd HIGHLY recommend getting some of these Earnest Eats products for yourself. They really do live up to their previously mentioned virtues. Great for taking on-the-go, delicious and wholesome. Knowing that you can enjoy a real snack without the feeling of being tied down that eating junk food can give you is the best feeling in the world! So what are you waiting for? Go get some or an entire box (like I did) for yourself now! Support local businesses & all that they do for us :)!
