We love to try new foods. Some are great. Some don’t measure up and some become staples in our kitchen. See what you think.

Clif Bar which is continuously expanding its varieties, introduced Kid Zbar Filled in three flavors this summer. All of the flavors are USDA certified organic, non-GMO, and kosher certified (OU). Zbar Filled is a kid-friendly snack, sold 5 to a box, and sourced from Canada.
Each bar is 1.06 ounces (30 grams).
Apple Filled With Almond Butter had a pleasant apple taste. One bar has 140 calories, 6 grams of fat, 7 grams of sugar, 2 grams of fiber, 3 grams of protein, 80 milligrams of potassium and 110 milligrams of sodium.
Chocolate Filled With Peanut Butter had a mild peanut butter taste. One bar has 130 calories, 6 grams of fat, 7 grams of sugar, 2 grams of fiber, 3 grams of protein, 75 milligrams of potassium and 150 milligrams of sodium.
Double Peanut Butter will be a favorite of peanut butter fans. One bar has 140 calories, 7 grams of fat, 6 grams of sugar, 2 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein, 70 milligrams of potassium and 160 milligrams of sodium.

Munk Pack maker of ready-to-eat snacks which we have reviewed in the past, added Protein Cookies to their product line.
Protein Cookies come in 4 flavors. Each cookie is 2.96 ounces, NonGMO Project Verified, Certified Vegan, Certified Gluten Free, and kosher certified (OU).
Coconut White Chip Macadamia has 360 calories, 18 grams of protein, 22 grams of fat, 6 grams of fiber, 190 milligrams of sodium and 280 milligrams of potassium.
Double Dark Chocolate has 360 calories, 18 grams of protein, 20 grams of fat, 6 grams of fiber, 160 milligrams of sodium and 360 milligrams of potassium.
Oatmeal Raisin Spice has 320 calories, 18 grams of protein, 14 grams of fat, 6 grams of fiber, 160 milligrams of sodium and 320 milligrams of potassium.
Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip has 360 calories, 18 grams of protein, 20 grams of fat, 6 grams of fiber, 320 milligrams of sodium and 380 milligrams of potassium.
The protein boost per cookie comes from a combination of peanut butter and brown rice protein.

Good Zebra Spirit Animal Crackers are a high protein twist on a childhood favorite. Though aimed at an adult audience to replace protein bars, they can be enjoyed at any age.

Each 2-ounce package has 230 calories, 12 grams of protein and is kosher certified (OU). Good Zebra Animal Crackers are sweetened using organic coconut palm sugar and organic honey and the protein is boosted by the addition of pea protein. They are available in three flavors – Chai, Lemon, and Vanilla. Our tasters had fun dunking them in tea and milk.
