Brownies are one of my favorite desserts. So when our friends over at MyBlogSpark offered me a chance to participate in a review for a new brownie product, I was all over it! But these aren’t just any brownies – these are Fiber One brownies. These 90 calorie snacks are packed with 20% of your daily value of fiber – bet you weren’t expecting a brownie like that! And one lucky Contest Corner reader will win a prize pack containing two boxes of Fiber One 90-Calorie Brownies and some fun fitness items, so read on!
I’ve been a fan of Fiber One products for a while – I’ve previously reviewed their toaster pastries and yogurt – I enjoy their creative ways of “Sneaking” fiber into foods you wouldn’t expect. Well, I certainly wasn’t expecting a fiber-filled brownie! Fiber One 90-Calorie Brownies are their latest innovation, a high-fiber version of the well-loved dessert. I received a box of each variety: Chocolate Fudge and Chocolate Peanut Butter. I’m game for any excuse to indulge in a sweet treat, so I was eager to “Review” these! 😀
These brownies taste like a combination of a brownie and a power bar. I very much enjoyed the flavor and could see how this might be a nice option if you’ve got a sugary craving. It’s not overwhelmingly sweet or covered in gobs of icing like a pan of homemade brownies, but it’s quite tasty in its own right. Each brownie contains 5 grams of fiber and clocks in at 90 calories; the only downside is that the brownies are small.
I also received a very fun pack of fitness products along with the brownies: A duffel bag, perfect for the gym; a fun jump rope; a cool plastic snack container, perfect for taking small food items along with you to work, school, picnics, etc.; a nice aluminum water bottle; a fun Fiber One bracelet; and a headband that looks a bit like something Wonder Woman would wear, which is always a bonus!
Keep up with the latest from Fiber One by “Liking” them on Facebook!

If I won the Fiber One Brownies, I’d bring them to work with me for a snack and hopefully to the gym soon. I know I’ll be hungry after swimming and I need to so my ankle will get better.

From experience, Fiber 1 bars travel in my purse and tote bag. They are a quick solution to any number of hunger issues. One that is critical to diets, is when a quick stop at the grocery falls apart. This happens so often that a simple shopping need also requires filling the car up, stopping at the ATM/bank and remembering that a pet needs food et cetra. you know how that happens. I keep water in car, but its the Fiber One bar that satisfies me and thus saves me from grabbing some fastfood or making a coffeeshop stop.

If I get any (I have a teen- aged boy at home, affectionately called the bottomless pit – hey, maybe the fiber could help that!), I’d take these snacks everywhere – work, school – but I think they’d be great for camping too!
