Another week, another sponsor spotlight and giveaway for your enjoyment! This week’s special guest is Probar!!!
Probar holds a special place in the Wright household – these are clean ingredient bars that I don’t mind feeding to Henry and Clara (and myself!) Throw them in my hiking pack or diaper bag and I’ve got a real-food snack to give to my kids. Perhaps the best thing – NO CLEANUP!!! I recently did a Q & A with Amy, a Probar rep, and I’ll let her tell you what makes Probar so special!
Our Q & A:
Q: How long has Probar been around?
A: Probar has been around since the late 1990’s. Probar was born on the mountains in Utah at Snowbird Resort.
Q: What products does Probar specialize in?
A: Probar specializes in Vegan, Organic, Raw blended not baked, Real Food Meal Replacement bars, Energy bars packed with Chia seeds call fruition and a sweet treat called Halo.
