Raw Revolution Reunion


My version of a Tumble Weed Breakfast...


Organic Strawberry Yogurt with Banana and Quaker Muffets Shredded Wheat Cereal


Lunch consisted of an enormous Salad


Fuji apples, Garbanzo Beans, Purple Rice Toast Crackers , Lettuce, Celery, 
Lemon Juice, Apple Cider Vinegar, Mustard, Nutritional Yeast, and Pepper


Yesterday I went to Planet Organic Market to pick up some
 groceries when I spotted these Raw Revolution Bars on sale!


A few years ago I found them while I was in Saskatchewan, where I fell in love 
with the Spirulina Cashew Barbut I couldn't find them anywhere back 
home! So you can imagine my excitement when I found these at Planet Organic!


I bought the Spirulina & Cashew and Chocolate & Coconut flavours


The Spirulina & Cashew, with Sprouted Flaxseeds, is really sweet and moist


Raw Revolution Bars are softer than Larabars, yet have a similar texture profile


I'm excited to try the Chocolate & Coconut, then go
 back to the store and try some of the other flavours :)

  1. I love Raw Revolutions bars. At the 5k I ran in September, they had a basket full of them, and I took a few to try out. I really like the chocolate coconut flavor, and I agree, the texture is perfect.

    Haven't had one since then though, cause they're so pricey. :( Hope you're having a great weekend!
