Buffalo-Apple-Orange Jerky? Oh My!

Is this a new flavor? This is super cool! If you like the “beef jerky” style of paleo protein bar, you might be searching for more flavor variety because…. well, how many flavors of meat are there, right?

Tanka bar already makes a cranberry bar and spicy blend jerky, but now you can another flavor option to your arsenal: Apple Orange Peel. It has cranberries, apple and orange peel with spices like cinnamon, onion and garlic powder.

It may seem a little strange at first to combine all of those flavors, but that’s what makes these snacks so interesting and filling. By adding variety to your paleo bars, you’re more likely to enjoy your snacks and stick to a healthy eating plan. Spices are especially good for this, and this particular bar has several (see ingredient list below).

Also note that if you’re concerned about eating meat that is hormone-free, nitrite-free, soy free and doesn’t contain MSG, you’re in the right place. You don’t have to worry about any of those here.

And there’s no gluten or dairy, while we’re on the topic of stuff that these bars don’t have.

They are low in calories at 70 calories per serving. However, this also means that you won’t easily be able to used them as a meal replacement… unless you eat a few.

That said, they can be a terrific natural and healthy meat source as part of a meal if you have fruit, raw veges or a salad. The tank bar gives you something extra to chew on that’s hearty and substantial.

Wild Zora Paleo Jerky… With Vegetables?

Do you like beef jerky? Why not get your greens while you’re at it?

That’s what Zora was thinking when she came up with idea for Wild Zora Beef and Veggie Bars. She wanted a healthy snack for her family that didn’t contain the high amount of sugar that other packaged snacks typically have.

And many beef jerky products contain nitrates, preservatives, msg and a high amount of salt. Zora wanted to avoid those ingredients as well, especially if her family was going to eat these foods on a regular basis. All ingredients in her snacks are natural – including being grass fed beef jerky.

Even though we are now seeing a growing number of paleo protein bars that do not contain “sugar” as an ingredient, there are very few jerky snacks that area all-natural and that go beyond just meat.

The thing is that if you are a jerky eater, snacks can become boring quite quickly if they have limited ingredients and seasonings. If you want to stick to a healthy snack plan, your best chance of success is to have variety.

What I Like About Wild Zora Paleo Jerky:

The bars are thin and pack a ton of nutrition (including 8-9 grams of protein) into just 55 calories per bar (there are 2 bars per package). If you are looking for a low-calorie, low-carb snack that doesn’t short you on nutrients, I think you’ll like this paleo jerky.

It’s also gluten-free, soy-free, nut-free and dairy-free. Check out the flavor options and ingredients listed below the video. By the way, you can find out more about this “out-of-the-box” company here.

Review on the Glazed Donut Paleo Protein Bar:

So wait – how are these “paleo donuts” sweetened then?

Naturally with monk fruit and prebiotic fiber. Not only do you get to avoid sugar and high-fructose corn syrup, but you get healthy prebiotic fiber for good digestion in exchange. Not a bad trade-off!

INGREDIENTS: Egg Whites, Isomalto-Oligosaccharide* (Prebiotic Fiber), Organic Sunflower Seeds, Water, Cold Pressed Organic Palm Oil, Orange Pulp, Vanilla, Maple Emulsion, Tumeric, Monk Fruit, Sea Salt. (*Isomalto-Oligosaccharide are Prebiotic Fibers derived from Tapioca.)

Paleo Protein Bar Glazed Donut Label Personally, I don’t eat a lot of sweets. I prefer salty snacks to deserts. However, I get plenty of sweet cravings, usually when I don’t expect it.

No, an apple won’t curb that craving. I want something like a cookie, cake or ice cream.

But now I can just have my donut protein bar. My body thinks it’s having a donut, and when I’m done, my stomach is filled up with protein so it doesn’t want any more food.

Box of Paleo Glazed Donut Bars OK, so these bars don’t taste exactly like a real fluffy maple bar, crunchy old fashioned donut or warm apple fritter…

They will take some getting used to because their texture is different.

However, there’s no denying that the non-bloated feeling after you eat one is a big selling point.

Wait! You don’t want a donut?

Well then, have a cinnamon roll, chocolate brownie, cookies n’ cream, caramel or chocolate mint treat. Click here to buy.
