Organic Gluten-Free Snack Wins 2010 “GreatGearTM” Awards

Carlsbad, CA, December 01, 2010 --(PR.com)-- For a third year in a row, Jungle Grub Snack bars have won awards for great taste and nutrition from ShapeYou.com’s Gear Awards. This year all three flavors, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, Peanut Butter Groove and Berry Bamboozle won the honor of a “Great Gear” Award.

“This is a tremendous award, especially for a gluten-free product to win for taste and nutrition, even when evaluated against traditional bars. I would like to thank ShapeYou.com and their judges for recognizing us. The products in the Gear Awards are evaluated by trainers, coaches, nutritionists, health care practitioners, industry writers, gym owners and sports, and health & fitness retailers. I couldn’t be more pleased to have them recognize our dedication to good nutrition and great taste,” says company President, Steven Brandt.

Jungle Grub is a great school snack. Each bar is packed with 4 grams of protein, good source of Calcium & Vitamin C and with less sugar per serving than a glass of milk. Many kids’ snack bars contain just 1g of protein. The extra protein packed into Jungle Grub gives kids the sustained energy they need to stay focused in school. The best part is the kids feel like they are getting a treat - not something healthy- and they feel good after eating it.

Jungle Grub® Snack Bars are USDA Organic and Certified Gluten-Free by GFCO. Formulated to meet the SB-19 school nutrition requirements, each bar is only 100 calories. Each bar has less than 15 grams of carbohydrates, making them a good snack for diabetics - young and old - who need to keep their snacks under 15 grams of carbs per serving.

Jungle Grub Snack Bars can be found in hundreds of Natural Markets and retailers like HEB Grocery, Sprouts Farmers Market, and they are easily found on Amazon.com and ShopOrganic.com. Organic Nutrition, Inc. now has the ability to distribute Jungle Grub Snack bars nationwide through KeHE Food Distributors/Tree of Life, Nature’s Best.
