Most dog treats are formatted and packaged for on-the-go use, but these natural snack bars from [Lily's Kitchen](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mighty-burrito-bowl) are designed to offer the same level of convenience as snacks for humans.

Although the Red Berry Boost, Eat Your Greens and Sun Shiny Day bar flavors are individually packed in wrappers that resemble human-grade snack bars, Lily's Kitchen calls out that the [treats are specifically for dogs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/lilys-kitchen). Similarly, the natural snack bars are rich with nourishing ingredients like wheat grass, spirulina, flaxseeds and honey, which are commonly found in snacks for humans, but there also also a few ingredients like chicken liver and gelatine that are will appeal to pets.

As Lily's Kitchen describes, one package contains "two handy snap-and-snack bars," that are cleanly made without artificial preservatives, colors or sweeteners.
