How Smart Snacking helps us all stay sane during busy weekdays and weekends. Plus, some fun events for all of my local Seattle readers to #tryalittlegoodness and a 25% code for those who want to order online!
I first got introduced to goodnessKNOWS snack squares last Spring when I partnered with the brand to host a super fun event in Seattle for “Bike Everywhere Day”. We have been big fans ever since.
The goodnessKNOWS snack squares are not only gluten free and non-GMO but they are made without artificial colors, flavors and sweeteners.
Each package is divided into four snack squares and is a total of 150 calories, meaning each square is a little less than 40 calories. Personally, I love this because we have two kids and when we are on the go, I can open a package and everyone can get their own square. No fighting between the kids about who got “the bigger piece”. Parents – you know exactly what I am talking about here.
All six flavors are crafted with dark chocolate and are super tasty. My personal fav is the Blueberry & Almond and I keep them in my car, purse and dedicated snack bin that the kids can easily access.
This past weekend, we were running around like crazy between a Cross Country meet, Soccer game, birthday party, food shopping, personal errands and needing to fit in some food photos while it was sunny.
I packed lunch on the go for the boys and paired each with a Blueberry & Almond goodnessKNOWS.
Family life is totally insane. I love it but it’s crazy. It’s funny how you just can’t understand certain things until you go through them. Each stage of parenting is so different and I totally get now why so many parents are so harried. The day felt much more manageable with everyone happy and satisfied with good food.
I have two things for you guys.

I haven’t tried these yet but will definitely have to, they look awesome!
You will love them Kimberly!
Over half the carb calories in each one is SUGAR. Our livers do NOT have one door for various and numerous sugars and a separate one for no-calorie sweeteners. Natural sugars cause as much if not more heart disease related to fructose intake in ALL of these sugars in these bars. Proteins are essential, fats are essential in human nutrition and SUGAR and ALL carbs simply are NOT essential at all. So consuming foods that naturally cause diabetes, high blood pressure, obesity are NOT necessary to eat. This is one of the reasons we lead the world in childhood obesity and diabetes.
These are my absolute fav! I take them for a morning snack at work each day. My kiddos love them as well. Sam’s Club had a giant bag of individually wrapped squares that were perfect for grab and go snacks but I haven’t been able to find the big bags for a while. My Target has also been sold out of them for weeks :(. They are so delicious!
