I am kicking of National Nutrition Month with a giveaway! You all know how much I love Attune bars and talk about them a *lot* like a lovelorn teenager. Well, the nice folks at Attune noticed my bloggy love and sent me some bars and the opportunity for one of my readers to win some! Was I going to turn that down?? Thank you Attune!
What are Attune bars? They are probiotic chocolate bars. From their website: Each bar contains –
- Only 3-8 grams of sugar
- Excellent source of calcium
- Only 80-90 calories
- 3 grams of fiber
- Attune probiotics are proven to survive in the digestive tract, where they can provide optimal health benefits.
- The probiotics in Attune have been clinically tested to support a healthy digestive system and a strong immune system.
- Attune wellness bars also include prebiotics (inulin), which support healthy digestive function and work in harmony with probiotics.
Attunes are found in the yogurt section of the refrigerated case. Or, in the natural foods refrigerated case (where they are in my store). There are several different flavors to choose from. The milk chocolate flavors (plain and almond) and the white chocolate blueberry are good, but my favorites are the dark chocolate ones. The straight up dark chocolate bar is great for that portioned chocolate fix in the mid afternoon 🙂
The coffee bar has bits of crunchy coffee beans in them and a nice coffee flavor. The raspberry (which you all know I love) has chewy bits of real raspberry in there, giving the bars a tart and sweet taste.
Then I think the mint chocolate is #2 for me, as it has a cool minty flavor along with some rice crisp crunch. Guess I like the textural thing….
Now, I will be honest here, I don’t buy these so much for the probiotic part. What I like is that they are the perfect portion size, which is probably one my favorite things about them. Dark chocolate belongs in everybody’s healthy diet, and this is a great way to get it in there.
Now for your favorite part! Attune is offering a week pack (7 bars) of dark chocolate Attune bars to one of my readers:

I think I’d like to try the Coffee Bean Dark Chocolate one! I had a bar like that before and it was delish!!!
How weird is this? I was just at Nature’s Pharm and almost got one of these! I didn’t though because i’m trying to save $$$. I would LOVE to try the dark chocolate coffe bean.

I LOVE Attune bars. I have not been able to find a lot of the flavors around here. I really want to try the coffee one. mmmmm
I love that the bars are low in calories too! It has become one of my favorite indulgences. 🙂

Looked at the Attune website and I think the one I want to try most is the Almond Milk Chocolate. Hershey’s bars with almonds are one of my favorites, so this would be better way to address that craving. 🙂

I’ve been wanting to try these since you rave about them. Unfortunately, I live in the boonies and can’t find them anywhere. I’d love the try the Dark Chocolate Raspberry flavor. Yum!
I just checked out their website. I would love to try the Almond Milk Chocolate. I am not a coffee fan, but all of the other bars look yummy!
Being a chocolate addict, I’d love to try any of them. However, I think the Dark Chocolate Raspberry flavor would be my first choice.
I went to the website and I think both the raspberry and the coffee ones sound amazing! Plus they are gluten free!!! I hope we get these in my neighborhood soon!

Love to try the coffee bean/dark chocolate
I LOVE Attune Bars! I became a fan of theirs on FB and incidentally had reviewed them on my blog a couple of weeks ago (http://losingit1.wordpress.com/2010/02/09/random-thoughts-for-a-tuesday-afternoon/). I can get two weeks worth at BJs Wholesale Club for $13 which is a little bit of a savings compared to my natural foods stores. I can only get the Chocolate Crisp flavor in bulk but they sure are tasty! And they have actually helped my IBS (sorry if that’s TMI).
