Check out five of the newest items to hit our shelves.

1. Mezcla Plant Protein Bars
Protein bars are a staple in many people’s diets. Not only are they convenient and portable, but they can support overall health and nutrition in several positive ways.

With that said, many protein bars are loaded with added sugars and artificial ingredients. That’s why we’re thrilled to bring you healthy alternatives like Mezcla Plant Protein Bars. Featured in Forbes, The Beet, EatingWell, Livestrong and more, Mezcla’s puff-crispy bars offer delicious taste combined with a unique texture. Not to mention, they contain 10 grams of protein at only 170 calories per bar. You’ll love each bar’s vegan chocolate coating mixed with flavors like peanut butter, almond butter or Italian pistachio. Located in the Grocery Department.

Available in Mexican Hot Chocolate, Peruvian Cocoa Peanut Butter, Spanish Almond Butter Chocolate and Italian Pistachio Chocolate.

2. PEP Daily Longevity Bars
Approved by Heinen’s Club Fx program, our new PEP Daily Longevity Bars are hailed as the first-ever plant peptide bar.

While you may have heard of the amazing benefits of peptides for your skin, you may be wondering if it’s okay to consume them as part of your food. Peptides, which are similar in molecular structure to proteins, are clinically proven to rebuild muscle after strenuous workouts. PEP bars contain an ingredient called “PepiStrong:” a breakthrough fava bean peptide capable of building and maintaining muscle and supporting overall recovery. Best of all, these bars offer delicious flavor with options including Berry Bliss, Chocolate Fudge or Honey Nut. Try one today, or grab all three to explore which one puts the most pep in your step. Located in the Grocery Department.

Available in Berry Bliss, Honey Nut and Chocolate Fudge.
