Healthy Kid Stuff

CLIF Kid has added a Zbar Crispy organic rice snack to its original baked Organic Zbar line, as well as a Fruit Punch flavor to Zfruit, a fruit rope twist made with organic fruit puree.

“We know parents are always looking for healthy and delicious options for their busy, on-the-go families,” noted Jennifer Yun, brand director for CLIF Kid, a brand of Emeryville, Calif.-based Clif Bar & Co. “Expanding CLIF Kid with different snacks and flavors means more great-tasting and nutritious snacking choices for kids.”

Featuring 8 grams of whole grains and a sprinkling of toasted oats for a lightly textured crunch Zbar Crispy, in common with the original Zbar, has a balanced blend of carbohydrates, protein, fiber and healthy fat to help curb hunger and stabilize energy levels that keep children feeling full longer. According to the company, Zbar Crispy provides more calcium, iron, zinc and vitamin D than other family snack bars – essential nutrients that are often missing from kids’ meals and snacks. Available in Chocolate, Chocolate Chip and Peanut Butter, Zbar Crispy retails for 89 cents per bar or $4.49 per 6-pack box.

CLIF Kid Zfruit, previously known as Organic Twisted Fruit, is a tangy, chewy, organic fruit snack equivalent to one serving of organic fruit. It additionally offers an excellen and convenient source of vitamin C. In addition to the Fruit Punch flavor, the product line comes in Mixed Berry, Sour Apple, Strawberry, Tropical Twist and Grape varieties and retails for 89 cents per fruit rope or $4.49 per 6-pack box.

Specially created for kids’ growing bodies, developing taste buds and active lives, CLIF Kid snacks are USDA-certified organic and free of trans fats, hydrogenated oils, high-fructose corn syrup; artificial sweeteners, flavors or preservatives; and ingredients sourced from GMOs.
