It’s a "GNU" Giveaway!

May 28, 2009 by DanicasDaily 62 Comments

The peeps at Gnu (My friends in Fiber!) were nice enough to send me bars galore and I’d like to share them ALL with you! Before I get to the contest details you know I have to tell you all a little bit about these filling, all natural, tasty bars.

My bar pack included this cool flyer that explains all about the GNU bars.

GNU BARS ARE:

* High Fiber: 12 g per Bar
* Made with 6 whole grains
* Only 130-140 calories
* Made with ORGANIC Whol eWheat and Kamut Flurs
* Made with Aluminum-Free Baking Powder
* Loaded with both Soluable and Insoluable Fiber
* VEGAN!!!
* Kosher

GNU BARS HAVE:

* NO High Fructose Corn Syrup
* NO Refined Sugars (except in the Chocolate Brownie Bar)
* NO cholesterol
* NO Trans Fats
* NO Hydrogenated Oils
* NO Artificial Preservatives
* NO Artificial Colorings
* NO Sugar Alcohols
* NO Dairy or Whey
* NO Maltodextrin (MSG)

It doesn’t get ANY CLEANER/HEALTHIER than that. The BEST part is that depending on the flavor, majority are only TWO Weight Watchers Points each!!

* You can click on any of the images below to make them bigger.

There are currently FIVE flavors available:

* Orange Cranberry
* Peanut butter
* Chocolate Brownie
* Banana Nut
* Cinnamon Raisin

You can find Gnu Bars at Tarder Joe’s, The Vitamin Shoppe, Whole Foods and thousands of independent natural and grocery stores Nationwide! OR, you can ENTER MY CONTEST and score some FREE GNU BARS!!!

I am giving away to THREE WINNERS their choice of TWO GNU BARS each to try out! The first place winner gets the first choice, second picks next and third gets what is left!

HERE IS ALL YOU HAVE TO DO TO ENTER:

1. Leave your FIRST COMMENT below telling me which bar(s) you want to try most. I’d LOVE to know how you all eat them – just straight up or as toppers or ???

2. Link back to this contest in your blog AND leave a SECOND COMMENT below with the link back.

3. BONUS ENTRIES – LEAVE THIRD COMMENT: telling me if you “tweeted” about this contest.

* For those NON-BLOGGERS, tell a friend and email me at danicasdaily @ gmail dot com to let me know for your BONUS ENTRY.
