As a mom I worry about my kids having too much sugar in their diets. With Halloween coming up I worry even more. If I don’t watch what they eat my kids could easily consume all the Halloween candy. Just the thought of all the sugar they will stuff in their bodies makes me sick to my stomach.
When I give out Halloween treats to the little ghosts and goblins I always look for a better alternative, like stickers, pens, pencils, small activity books and other non-sugary sweet treats. I won’t give out toothbrushes. I know how much kids cringe when they find one of those in their trick-or-treat bag. LOL!
There is a delicious alternative on the market. Here is more information.
Parents expect the supernatural on Halloween. However, it’s the super-unnatural sugary candy that spooks parents by haunting their kids’ trick-or-treat bags.
This year, parents can embrace the sweetness of the season without having to compromise on delicious flavor or wholesome nutrition thanks to CLIF Kid Zbar Full Moon Brownie.
Zbar Full Moon Brownie is back by popular demand, for a limited time, to provide parents with a nutritious and yummy alternative to typical trick-or-treat offerings.

We’ve tried the Full Moon Brownie and I must say it’s pretty good. It’s more like a cake then a brownie. It’s not ooey and gooey like a traditional brownie. It has a cake like texture to it. In a way it reminds me a cake too.
My kids were pleased. They enjoyed the Full Moon Brownie. I wasn’t about to tell them that it was a better-for-you option. Besides, they couldn’t care less about fiber, whole grains and vitamins. Only a parent would appreciate that. 🙂
I wish I took a picture of one of the bars with the fun Halloween wrapper on it. My kids gobbled them up before I had a chance to take a photo. It looked like this,
These are ideal lunch box treats. The kids love how they taste and as a parent you can enjoy the fact that these are better for your kids then a bag of chips or candy.
Zbar Full Moon Brownie should be on a store shelf near you. Look for them in the health food section of your local grocery store.
