			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>We all love our <strong>LARABARS</strong>, but I was super excited to find these <strong>Jamfraka bars for kids</strong> at the store! They are about half the size of a normal Larabar and thus contain about half of the nutrition. Larabar is a company I will always trust, so the more products by them, the better! </p>
<p>From their website:<br />
Our company name comes from an ancient belief that food falls into two categories:<br />
<strong>BECKONING FOODS</strong>, which beckon consumption again and again, sapping the body of energy without any real health benefits, Today, they&#8217;re called &#8220;junk foods.&#8221;<br />
<strong>HUMM FOODS</strong> on the other hand, resonate with energy in a whole, natural state. When consumed, they cause you to feel vibrant and alive.<br />
You can expect an unmistakable urge to humm after every LÄRABAR  bar you eat.</p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/42865111@N05/4055411405/" title="DSC01594 by Daradaltas, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2597/4055411405_3c7330f10a.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="DSC01594" /></a></p>
<p><strong>Pros: </strong></p>
<p>-smaller size for when you want a less filling bar<br />
-<strong>soy free</strong>, <strong>dairy free</strong>, <strong>gluten free</strong><br />
-USDA organic<br />
-CRUNCHY/CRISPY!<br />
-contain fruits + nuts + honey + whole grains<br />
-contain about 10 vital minerals and vitamins in each bar<br />
-and of course, trans fat and high fructose corn syrup free!<br />
-fun flavors: <strong>Apple Crispalicious</strong>, <strong>Chocolate Chip Cosmocrisp</strong>, <strong>Banana Chocolate Blastocrisp</strong>, <strong>Strawberry Crispiscrumptious</strong>, <strong>Peanut Butter Blisscrips</strong></p>
<p><strong>Cons:</strong></p>
<p>-not raw or vegan<br />
-less flavor options<br />
-flavor less pronounced<br />
-higher in sodium per gram<br />
-longer and less attractive list of ingredients</p>
<p><strong>Jamfraka Review: Peanut Butter Blisscrisp</strong></p>
<p><a href="http://www.flickr.com/photos/42865111@N05/4056151088/" title="DSC01602 by Daradaltas, on Flickr"><img src="http://farm3.static.flickr.com/2571/4056151088_009b487108.jpg" width="500" height="375" alt="DSC01602" /></a></p>
<p><strong>INGREDIENTS</strong>: Organic Peanuts, Organic Dates, Organic Rice Crisps (Organic Brown Rice Flour, Organic Honey, Organic Raisin Juice Concentrate, Sea Salt), Organic Honey, Sea Salt</p>
<p><strong>NUTRITION PROFILE</strong> per bar:<br />
calories: 120<br />
Fat: 5g<br />
Carbohydrates: 15g<br />
Fiber: 2g<br />
Protein: 3g</p>
<p><strong>Texture</strong>: Slight crisp/crunch. In comparison to the Peanut  Butter Cookie Larabar, the Peanut Butter Blisscup is much less chewy. The flavor has a interesting aftertaste to it that I can not figure out. It is not bad, I just couldn&#8217;t find a word to describe it! I actually prefer it to the Larabar Peanut Butter Cookie bar. </p>
<p>Lastly, I found this bar less filling obviously than a Larabar, however it did hold me over longer than anticipated during class. I have yet to try the other flavors, but look forward to doing so!!</p>
<p>Overall, I would recommend you give these a try, kid or not! Although I also eat kids gummy vitamins&#8230; so what can I say!</p>
