Gnu Bars Giveaway

By , February 7, 2012 4:19 am

It’s taking me longer than I thought it would to eat all of those LUNA Chocolate Dipped Coconut bars because I found a new bar that I love! A few weeks ago, Erin pointed out a good deal on Gnu Bars to me. These weren’t on my radar at all! But the price was good for the sampler pack of all 7 flavors, and they are vegan, so I ordered them.

And wow. They taste so so good.

There are seven flavors, of which I have tried and love five: Chocolate Brownie, Cinnamon Raisin, Lemon Ginger, Orange Cranberry, and Peanut Butter. I have not tried Espresso Chip (don’t like coffee) or Banana Walnut (don’t care for tree nuts).

The Gnu Bars are advertised as being fiber bars – each bar has 12 grams of fiber. I don’t need more fiber in my diet, but really enjoy the flavor and texture of these, so I have been having one from time to time.  At only 130 calories they make a great snack, and they are chewy and a bit dense – the way I like bars/cookies.

I haven’t seen these bars in the stores (maybe at Whole Foods?) and thought maybe some of you have not seen them either, so I ordered 7 more for one of you to sample!

    Wow half of a day’s fiber? That is amazing. I want to try Banana Walnut.

    I haven’t seen these either.

  2. Stacey says:

    I would love to try the Cranberry Orange, I could use more fiber in my diet!

  3. Kandi says:

    I’m excited to try the espresso chip! Yum.
    Does the fiber upset your stomach at all? I’ve had high fiber cereal (though I probably eat a bit more than 1 serving so maybe that’s why) that puts my stomach in knots after about an hour or so. I had to stop buying it even though I loved the taste.

      I don’t think the fiber upsets my stomach. My stomach was in knots on Saturday, but I attributed that to my excessive consumption of dried fruit. So, the bars, no, dried fruit, yes. I handle fiber cereals really well too.

  4. Tracy says:

    Actually, I’d be most excited to try espresso chip – I don’t drink coffee, but I do usually like the taste in other stuff. Thanks, Kim, for doing this!

  5. Beth says:

    I’d be most excited to try the banana walnut bar!

  6. Liz says:

    I’ve seen these bars in my local health food store but have never tried one, maybe I will now! I’m down to try the espresso chip, yum!

  7. Emily says:

    Thanks so much for personally sponsoring this giveaway! I would be most excited to try the chocolate brownie!

    Chocoholics, UNITE!!!!! =D

  8. Melissa says:

    Sounds YUM! I think the Espresso Chip one sounds really good 🙂

    But back to Luna bars…oh so good…I love the Nutz Over Chocolate and the Coconut one…just tried the chocolate peppermint stick flavor too and it reminded me of a thin mint!

    Have you tried the coconut cream pie Lara bar flavor? That one is really good too!

  9. Peanut butter… of course! 🙂

  10. Kelly says:

    Chocolate Brownie sounds pretty tasty to me.

  11. Kelsey says:

    um YUM. i am dying to try the peanut butter!

  12. Ian says:

    Banana Walnut. Not many banana bars out there. They look a lot like Clif Bars from the photo.

    • kilax says:

      They do look like Clif Bars in that pic! But they don’t have that sticky, super dense consistency like Clif bars do.

  13. martymankins says:

    I think I’d like the Banana Walnut… it sounds pretty close to banana nut bread, which I love.

  14. Erin says:

    This are totally yummy! I think I’ve only ever seen them in airports which is kind of a strange place to see something like this.

    Warning to those of you who want to try the espresso one: it has REAL coffee in it. I was confused about why I started having a really strong caffeine buzz after eating one until I read the ingredients list!

    So far I think I like the Lemon Ginger one the best.

  15. The chocolate brownie bar looks like it’d be right up my alley. perfect for an afternoon snack in the office before heading home and hitting the gym…

  16. Gingerfoxxx says:

    These must be good to pry anyone away from the coconut luna bars! I think Cinnamon raisin looks tasty!

  17. cindy says:

    Have not seen these, would like the orange cranberry.

  18. gina says:

    The brownie one sounds like it would make a nice dessert! The Cavemen Cookies were really good – Steve and I enjoyed them!

  19. Steel Springs says:

    Those look really good! There are a lot of intriguing flavors. I would probably try the Espresso Chip Bar first. Thank you for hosting another generous giveaway!

  20. Pam says:

    The lemon-ginger flavor sounds great! I’d love to try that one or the cinnamon raisin.

  21. Kelly @ Running Kellometers says:

    Banana walnut and peanut butter both sound delicious!!

  22. Deanna G. says:

    Banana Walnut! 🙂

  23. Mandy says:

    Oh wow, they all look good! However, I think I would be most excited to try the Espresso chip bar.

  24. rosie says:

    Peanut Butter….of course!!!!!!

  25. Jenna Z says:
