With kids headed back to school comes the inevitable task of making a healthy lunch, day after day, week after week.
And the fun part of getting kids to actually eat it.
That’s where Clif Kid organic snacks come to the rescue. Like Clif Kid’s parents, Clif Bar and LUNA, CLIF Kid provides snacks that are organic, wholesome, tasty and provide the right blend of nutrients… but specifically for kids. The CLIF Kid Organic ZBaR and Twisted Fruit both fit the bill by providing healthy on-the-go snacks that are easy for parents to pack and easy for kids to love.
ZBaR is the organic whole-grain bar that comes in kid friendly flavors like Chocolate Brownie, S’mores and Honey Graham but it’s made with a special blend of oats, carbohydrates, protein and fiber to help kids feel full longer and prevent energy spikes. Twisted Fruit is a snack made with all-natural fruit and nothing else. 
Unlike some whole fruits that get smushed in lunchboxes and come back uneaten and bruised, Twisted Fruit stands up to the backpack and has a fun rope-shape that kids love. Parents can rest easy knowing Twisted Fruit still provides one serving of healthy, organic fruit. And they come in cool flavors like Strawberry and Sour Apple. Plus, because CLIF Kid’s snacks are organic, they don’t contain any processed sugars or high-fructose corn syrup.

“I can’t wait to have a normal life,” is exactly what I was thinking three years ago in St. Louis, when [...]

Poor eyesight. Baldness. Big feet. These are all things that can be passed down from generation-to-generation.
In my family, our inherited trait is bad luck.
And also the aforementioned misfortunes.
We come up a wee bit short in the gene pool.
I hail from an uproarious, fun-loving Canadian family but if anything bad can happen, it usually does. [...]
At first, Mary Pierce thought her 2-year-old couldn’t stop throwing up because she had a typical stomach bug. A few days later, she watched in terror as the lethargic little girl was rushed by helicopter to The Children’s Hospital, her little kidneys shutting down.
Then Nicole’s 5-year-old brother, Aaron, fell ill, following her into the hospital [...]
