New in the Market: Dino Bars

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.

Launched in May 2020, Dino Bars (DINO BARS – Organic All-Natural Fruit Bars for Kids 1+) are fruit-based snack bars for kids, made without artificial flavors, preservatives, or refined sugar.

Dino bars are USDA Organic and come individually wrapped in three flavors:
Blueberry, Mango and Strawberry.

Each 1.05 ounce bar (30 grams) is 115 calories with 3 grams of fat, 2 grams of protein, 20 grams of carb (with 2 grams of fiber, 8 grams of natural sugar and 1 gram of added sugar), and 3 grams of sodium (Mango has 9 grams). Each bar is a good source of iron, phosphorus, and magnesium. Blueberry is additionally a very good source of vitamin C and Strawberry is an excellent source.

When the bar is removed from the packaging it appears to be wrapped in paper. This coating is edible, made of potato starch, water and olive oil. It melts in your mouth, which is a surprise for kids and ensures mess free hands and faces.
