MadeMerry

I was not a stellar food blogger this week. I had several work lunch parties and I didn’t take pictures then. And it was a particularly heinously stressful work-week so adult dinners did not happen – one night I went out for drinks with a girlfriend, one night we ordered in pizza, one night I ate chips in bed and fell asleep fully dressed… you get the gist. I do have photos of a fun box of samples and the exciting ensuing snacks!

MadeGood reached out to me recently about trying their goods. They are a certified organic company that makes granola bars, granola bites, and crispy treats. Their products are vegan, kosher, gluten-free, and free of eight common allergens (dairy, peanuts, tree nuts, wheat, egg, fish, shellfish, and soy). PLUS they are made with a vegetable powder made of spinach, broccoli, carrots, tomatoes, beets, and shitake mushrooms and the granola products provide 20% of the RDA for vitamins A, B1, B6, C, D, and E per serving.

Normally I am unmoved by snack items with “hidden” fruits and veggies – though I do totally understand why they can be helpful for picky kids! – but in this case I am 100% on board. The MadeGood products all had a savory quality that made them completely addictive! Adam and I both felt that the crispy squares were the best crispy treats we’d ever tasted! And the granola items struck a good balance between chew and crunch. In short – I am a new fan.
