Created to offset the unpleasant effects of Pre-Menstrual Syndrome, PMS Bites are tiny treats that are described as a "combination of a chocolate classic truffle and brownie batter." Invented by former marketer Tania Green, the bite-sized snacks are the result of a successful Kickstarter campaign.
Given 85% of women experience pre-menstrual symptoms -- including food cravings -- PMS Bites will be broadly appealing among females. They're even healthy, with each ball being only 60 calories as well as containing vegan, raw, gluten-free and all-natural ingredients. They come in three flavors: 'Plain Crazy,' 'Coco-Nutty' and 'All Kinds of Nuts.' The names are a reference to the crazy and emotionally unstable stereotype placed on women during 'that time of the month.'
