All It Takes Is Just A Bite, And BOOM! You Make Me Float in Tropical Paradise, Banana Samba!
Looking for a early Fall delicious snack that replenishes the potassium and electrolytes your body needs? Get a taste of the tropics with Banana Samba, a traditional Brazilian super snack made with simple ingredients and zero artificial colors or preservatives. It’s simply delicious!
Slowly-cooked bananas caramelize their own natural sugars and give Banana Samba a delicious, soft, chewy texture. It’s the perfect choice for healthy lifestyle enthusiasts looking to avoid artificial energy shots and bars for something simple, natural, and convenient. Banana Samba is a dance for the senses, with mouthwatering flavor to curb your appetite and give you a boost during the day. For that mid-afternoon slump, this is the guilt-free way to snack!
CLASSIC
You will know how it goes. You like taking that vintage 50’s Caddy out for a spin every now and again. It doesn’t get you from A to B any faster. But God, does it feel good.
The Classic is for those who appreciate the sweeter things in life. It has a little pure cane sugar added to it. The result is a morsel of chewy goodness so delectable you’ll forget you’re still pumping your body with nutrients.
Go ahead. You deserve this!
SIMPLY
Oh, happy marriage. Let’s face facts: Lime has never been so healthy. Banana has never tasted so good.
Each box of Simply comes stocked with six nutrient-dense, bite-sized vessels, packed with fiber, and enough potassium to keep the lights on when they start to fade.
Two ingredients. A lasting blast of nutrients in a single, delicious bite.
FIT
The banana in its natural state is chock-full of heart-healthy nutrients. It got Banana Samba thinking: could we up the ante?
Enter the chia seed. Chia continues to be a great source of heart-healthy omega-3s and fiber. It also gives Banana Samba Fit a delicious crunch.
Fit is a favorite with athletes. Slip it into your tennis bag, your gym bag, or into your pocket before a run. Pop one between sets, between games, or when you feel the wall coming. Finish strong.
Chocolate
Mmmmmmm…chocolate.
Nothing says I love you like chocolate. And there’s no better way to tell your body you love it than Banana Samba Chocolate. Give your little ones that little extra incentive they need to eat a healthy snack; or, temper the sting of a stressful today with a quick trip down Bliss Lane.
The best thing about chocolate? There’s no wrong way to do it. When taste meets nutrition, good things happen.
Life’s Better naked.
Banana. Lime juice. Chia. Cane sugar. That’s it. That’s all. Banana Samba steers clear of preservatives, high fructose corn syrup, and artificial coloring and flavoring. Too many super-snacks today saddle the body with additives. They slow digestion and make the body work. Your body works hard enough. Give it the nutrients it knows and loves, and nothing else.
