Betty Lou's Jumbo Fruit Bars, Cinnamon Apple, 2-Ounce Packages (Pack of 12)
Betty Lou's line of innovative sugar-free snacks started when she and her family decided to stop eating products with refined sugar. When Betty Lou started looking for treats for her children to take to school, she realized how difficult it was to find treats that were not made with refined sugar--so she set about creating her own recipes. Having never created recipes before, she began to experiment, throwing in crunchy peanut butter, a bit of honey, nuts seed, and oats. Her experiments worked: Betty Lou's new snacks caught on, and today they are produced and marketed under Betty Lou's, Inc. In addition to her original "butter balls," Betty Lou's also produces granola, cookies, vegan bars, and a variety of gluten-free or dairy-free products--all made without refined sugar. Betty Lou's products make a naturally nutty snack with coffee for breakfast, or even a quick, healthy lunch. Athletes have been known to buy them for a nutritious boost of energy during training. Betty Lou's is based in Oregon.
