Judd Apatow recently produced a hysterical, “unapproved” PSA about AJWS (American Jewish World Service), conveying the organization’s tremendous scope beyond traditional Jewish causes. More importantly it will be sure to give you a good laugh! Check it out here:

Walkers Crisps is making a splash both with an environmentally favorable plan, as well as a humorous ad announcing the chance to vote for a new flavor. (See both the article and video clip below.) According to an article in The Grocer, the UK executives are looking at the potential of making the crisp packets out of potato skins to enhance the biodegradability of the bags, as well as minimize waste. We admire their plans to be KIND to consumers’ taste buds and the world!
Check out this hysterical Cadbury Commercial that is a great example of creative, funny, and subsequently effective, advertising.

Our Mango Macademia bar got a great shout out from Glamour Magazine for being tasty and kind to your weight loss effort!

I have a thing for mangoes and macadamia nuts. Together, I just learned, they combine to create something that’s really, truly delicious. A bar to add to your must-try list …

Loving the mango macadamia nut bar from KIND bars. It has a mellow, fruity flavor, and its packed with chunks of macadamia nuts–my favorite.
The nutrition stats: 190 calories and 12 grams of fat. A note on the fat content: As I’ve mentioned before, I don’t fret about fat that come from nuts. Remember, we’re talking about monounsaturated fats here–the good fats. Yes, you’ll get some saturated fat too, but it’s less troubling than the kind that comes from fried food or meat. So, let’s lot get in a tizzy about fat grams here.
Plus, I love that this bar is a great source of calcium, fiber, and that it’s high in folic acid and vitamin D3!
Enjoy!
P.S. Lots and lots of more bars reviewed by Vitamin G, here.

This article notes an interesting psychological discovery that children gravitate towards foods that are branded with familiar cartoons. Unfortunately, this familiarity often leads kids to choose a less healthy choice. Some findings even report that children find food tastier when the packaging is branded with a favorite cartoon character.
