Each Monday I look forward to a new Jillian Michaels’ podcast. It’s not all about fitness and training, she talks about nutrition, too. In her April 1, 2013 podcast she ran down her list of snacks, although she mentioned she eats the same couple of options....
Every once in a while I stumble upon a product and I’m completely taken with it. The latest is Kind Snacks. I really like that they’re responsive on social media, too. I was looking for something with fewer ingredients than the Luna bars. Since I could...
