Thank you soooo much for all the enteries!   I was overwhelmed as I had over 50 entries to this giveaway!  I will be keeping my eyes open for new giveaway treats! I already have a few in mind!! :)

Yesterday in the mail I received some more samples! Yay Larabar!!

I have to be honest, I haven't loved the larabars I've tried in the past.

Things change though!

I had this one for breaky this morning

HOLY YUM!   This tastes like a tropical vacation.

The ingredients are pretty fantastic too;

Dates, Pineapple, Unsweetened Coconut, Almonds, EV Coconut Oil, Cashews, 

Orange Juice Concentrate, Orange Peel 

I give this bar a solid 10/10 with a few bonus points for the tropcail vacation theme!! (hehe)

I would HIGHLY recommend this flavor!!
