While oats are typically only seen as a good base to build a snack bar upon, the 'Original Oat Bar' from NOM is all about the simplicity of its gluten-free jumbo oats.
The all-natural and organic portable snack food product is only enhanced with a few other ingredients, including virgin coconut oil, dates, sunflower seeds, cacao nibs, as well as brown rice and coconut blossom syrups. In all, the product is free from gluten, wheat, dairy and refined sugars, making it ideal for consumers who are vegetarian, vegan, gluten sensitive or intolerant. Branding on the product calls out its best qualities, including the fact that it's a rich source of fiber.
NOM also makes oat bars in flavors like Banana, Cacao & Raspberry, as well as Protein.
