When it comes to on-the-go snack bars, most feature sweet dried fruits—but Green Joy takes an entirely different approach to snacking by making Pressed Salad Bars that are rich with nourishing vegetables.
Each bar provides two servings of vegetables, with indulgent flavors available such as Pomegranate & Greens and Cacao & Greens. Some of the vibrant vegetables that power the snack bars include everything from organic carrots and spinach to beets and kale. Green Joy proudly uses ugly fruits and vegetables in the making of its snack products, which helps to make unshapely produce useful, instead of having it go to waste like 40% of fresh produce worldwide.
Green Joy recently refreshed its brand identity and packaging with a heightened focus on sharing solutions for healthy, simple and joyful eating.
