Sorry for the wait, I’m finally ready to share some of my loot from Expo West. If you missed it, here is my Day 1 recap. I will also provide a disclaimer. I was only able to walk about ½ of the show on Saturday and worked at the Simple Squares booth on Sunday (and saw a few more vendors) so these are some of my faves new finds from what I saw. Next year, I will try to go for another day to see even more and have even more to share!
Let’s start with what’s new to me (and likely you!) There are a ton of new, healthy, tasty bars (including ones made with meat, crickets and lots of hemp!), supplements, drink mixes, nuts, gluten free products and more. I’ve lined up full reviews and giveaways with Curate Snack Bars, Truth Bar and Toosum and am working on securing a bunch more. I will also have a “Finds’ Fave” giveaway coming soon with products that you have seen here before!
In this giveaway, I will share one of more of each of the following:
