Guilt free foods for you and the kids...plus a giveaway! (closed)

So many sweet treats come with the guilt factor...especially when you're watching your waistline or sugar intake.  Today, I'm going to share two Australian companies and their products that will relieve you of that guilt forever!

Table of Plenty - NoNo's Bars
Table of Plenty have just released a new range of muesli bars in two delicious flavours...Berry Blast and Cocoa Crush.  NoNo's are a natural, healthy alternative to other sugar-filled snacks on the market, and contain less than 100 calories per bar, making them the perfect snack to throw in your handbag or the school lunchbox. NoNo's are dairy, wheat, soy and sulphite free. Testing indicates they are nut free, however, if you're child has severe nut allergies, it might be best to avoid them as they may contain traces of nuts.
I am a big fan of Table of Plenty products...particularly their mini rice cakes, and I couldn't wait to taste them. Mind you, I only got a bite of each flavour because the kids loved them! Eme's favourite is the Cocoa Crush...she says "they taste like heaven". lol. Seth's favourite is the Berry Blast, because of the yummy berries. That's four little thumbs up...Table of Plenty are onto a winner here, and they will definitely be making a return appearance in the Warren household.

Table of Plenty NoNo’s are currently available in Woolworths and Caltex stores. RRP $4.25 per box.

WOW "Wonderland of Wellbeing" Confectionery
Hands up if you want to eat lollies, but don't want all the sugar?! You and me both. When you're on an healthy eating plan, whether it be to lose weight, or because of an illness such as diabetes, sometimes you still feel like a sweet treat. No need to feel deprived anymore!  Introducing WOW "Wonderland of Wellbeing"...an Australian made and owned confectionery company who produces sugar free confectionery. There are currently 11 flavours on the market:

  • Sugar-Free (RRP $2.69) – available in Buttered Candy with Choc Centre, Ice Mints, Chewy Caramel, Fruit Candy, Eucalyptus Drops, Chewy Fruits, Chewy Mints, Lemon & Lime Drops, and Buttered Candy Drops
  • Semi-Medicated (RRP $1.49) – available in Eucalyptus Drops and Eucalyptus & Honey Drops
We tried out the Chewy Fruits, and they were really satisfying...the perfect amount of sweetness and enough to kill the cravings.  The kids liked them as well, and had no idea they were sugar free. WOW confectionery would be a great alternative to take to the movies, or to pop into the kids lunchboxes as a guilt-free treat. I'll be keeping a bowl of them in my desk drawer to cure that 3.30-itis for sure!

Look out for WOW "Wonderland of Wellbeing" products at various chemists and Coles supermarkets.
