Less of
a diet and more of a lifestyle, the Mediterranean Diet emphasizes consuming more
whole grains, fruits, greens and healthy fats, and less meats and sweets. This
is what Mediterra is offering
their customers.
Inspired
by this diet, Mediterra brings to shelves ready-to-eat nutrition bars that fuel
the marathon that is life. Savory bars, Yogurt and Oats bars, and Sesame Honey
Energy bars are the three styles you’ll find at Mediterra. A favorite of the
editors here are the Yogurt and Oat Bars, a certified kosher choice featuring a
yogurt style coating and seven grams of protein. The bars, in
Yogurt/Oat/Cherry/Pistachio and Yogurt/Oat/Apricot/Pistachio, also feature fig
paste, sunflower seeds and raisins.
The
company’s Savory Bars, rich in vegetable content, but low in calories, sodium
and sugar, also contain protein-rich pea crisps and a touch of olive oil. A
perfect middle-of-the-day snack for those craving a savory treat, the bars
serve as an alternative to sweets and provide super foods and amaranth, an
ancient grain. Flavors include Tomato/Basil/Capers and Olive/Walnut/Chives.
The
third variety, the Sesame Honey Energy Bars, traditionally known as Pasteli,
are dairy-free and contain only a few ingredients, roasted sesame being the
most dominant. With the addition of Greek honey, pistachios from Aegina Island and even orange
peel, the combination makes for a natural mix flavors with long-lasting energy.
