Edys Frozen Coconut Fruit Bars
This review was done by Ann H. In her words, "I am a 20 year old from southern Louisiana who is currently a 3rd year Marketing major at the University of Southern Louisiana. I am a bonfide "healthy product foodie!" My ultimate goal is to work in the marketing and development department of a healthy food company...like Amy's or Kashi."
My first impression was a positive one because the bars were of substantial size, not like some of the other wimpy little frozen fruit bars that are on the market. As I tore open the plastic wrapper, I was totally pumped about being greeted with the heavenly aroma of coconut! (OK, maybe a little bit of that smell was in my head but there was definitely some coconut notes wafting through the air). The Edy's Coconut bars also look really enticing; They are a perfect 'coconut white' color and you can actually see the little bits of coconut throughout the bar. And now for the taste: Oh joyous coconut, how ever do I love thee? YES, YES, YES! Smooth, creamilicious, and coconutti-ful is the best way that I can describe these bars. They are full of delicious bits of coconut. I am truly surprised that I managed to navigate back home because I was in such a state of coconut euphoria. I am totally in love with these bars and am not ashamed to say that one box containing 6 bars lasted me about 3 days! One Coconut bar has 130 calories, 3 grams of total fat which includes 2.5 grams of saturated fat but no trans, 3 grams of protein and 22 grams of total carbohydrates, which includes 15 grams of sugars. Of course the bars are gluten free and nut allergen free. The ingredients and nutritional facts can be found [here] (this product does have milk in it - good to know if you are lactose intolerant). (* note from Tanya): Also check out our 5 star review of Edy's Frozen Fruit Bar [here]. The bars cost anywhere from $2.50 to $4.99 (available on Amazon.com [link Comments
