As a FitBloggin’ live blogger, I received complimentary admission to the conference and Expo Hall samples. No one asked or expected me to write anything about these foods that I tasted. But as a blog about food, I’d be remiss to eat something new and not share my thoughts on it!
One of the Expo Hall tables I visited at FitBloggin’ last week was Powered by Soy Protein by Guiltless Plate. They had a variety of samples to taste, most of which were new to me. I was introduced to Fit & Lean Power Pak Pudding, a 100 calorie snack with 15 grams of protein. Right away I thought this could be a good morning snack for us, since we still adhere to the “PowerFuels” and “SmartCarbs” concept that worked so well for us on Nutrisystem. We’ve been trying both flavors this week – as a confirmed chocoholic that flavor is by far my favorite, but the vanilla is still pretty good too.
There were also a selection of products from Special K, including their protein shakes that we have literally been drinking all week to their new Special K Nourish line of cereals and bars. We’ve been sampling quite a few of the Nourish meal bars, including the Dark Chocolate Nut Delight:
Yum!
Now, I also received a selection of NoGii and Now bars to sample, but someone *coughcough* Jai *coughcough* ate them all before I tried any. I showed him this picture and said, “Hey, how did these taste?” He looked concerned and said, “I didn’t eat those”. After some back and forth, I realized that he thought I was implying that he had eaten every bar on the table in this picture. 😉 One we cleared THAT up, he said: “Oh yeah, they were good. I liked them so much that I ate all the ones you brought home.” MEN! In all fairness, he also added that they were “Granola-ish with a hint of sweetness”. I will take that as a compliment since they disappeared pretty darn fast!

The Dark Chocolate Nut Delight looks scrumptious. Don’t you just love when your snacks grow legs and run away?
Those look like some good and healthy snacks!
Those look great. It is nice to have a variety of protein options. I was not aware that some of these products were made with soy protein.
Thanks for sharing.
I have really enjoyed what I have tried from this line of products!
oh those all sound wonderful I never tried soy protein before
Everything looks so good! I use a soy protein powder.
I don’t tend to eat much soy, but those bars look yummy.
