Have you guys seen those belVita commercials with Snooki and Deena?
I’ve been wanting to try them for weeks and my mom bought a box! (Hmm, now I wonder if she watches Jersey Shore…)
Each little pack has 4 cookies. So, the calorie count seems a little higher than a granola bar but it’s more food.
Ingredients:
Sadly, they are really good! I was hoping they weren’t but now I’m forced to take the box for myself 
I messed with my SLR on the way to my mom’s. It took a while to get a decent pic.
My mom, Ben and Matt went to a museum while I ran errands. When I got back they were having a feast! They decided to throw a last minute party because we have family in from Arizona.
Ceviche to start…
Beans, rice, salad, carne asada, guacamole and tortillas for dinner.
And my family brought a ton of desserts. I’m trying to abstain so I had a Vitatop. The Chocolate Pudding Cake is calling my name. Stay strong, Monica.
I’m blogging from my mom’s and need to be the DD home now. See ya later!
There is certainly a lot of sugar in those things: sugar, evaporated cane sugar, malt syrup, and invert sugar (?? whatever that is).
Hmmm. Lent. I a a little late on that one. What would be considered a “sweet”? Is a granola bar with dark chocolate a sweet? I have to think of something that is a trigger or would be of benefit AND sacrifice to give up.
The Kidless Kronicles
I looked at those at the grocery store the other day and put them back. Maybe I should pick them up again!
Something I wouldn’t eat often, but a good snack in my office desk. Or something to leave in the car – they wouldn’t melt!
Seems like a lot of calories for not a lot of protein & fiber :-/ I’d stick to the real thing and bake a batch of chocolate chip instead!!
Also it looks like you have a giant mushroom on your plate, which you neglected to mention. I happen to like mushrooms… just sad you ignored it 🙁
I feel like I’m being really critical! Sorry 🙂 I’m a fan, just started reading your blog! Love all the pictures!
Hi Kate,
Welcome to RER 🙂
Yeah, totally an oversight with not mentioning the mushroom. I actually ate 2 of them too!
I eat plenty of protein and fiber throughout the day. No worries. And I’m trying to avoid sweets for Lent or I’d be all over the desserts.
