Are EPIC Bars Whole30 Approved?

by Karissa 10 Comments

Real food is best on Whole 30, but sometimes snacks are necessary.

Maybe you are traveling. Maybe you are stuck in traffic. Maybe you are running errands. Maybe you just didn’t prepare enough food ahead of time. Don’t worry. Even the most dedicated Whole30er needs an emergency go-to snack now-and-again. And EPIC bars (and other EPIC products) are a great choice.

EPIC is a snack that is Whole30 approved!

EPIC is high quality meat products. Similar to jerky, but have some additional add ins like fruit, vegetables and spices – but still protein focused. Most of their products are low to no sugar. They are high protein and low carbohydrate. They fit the Whole30 lifestyle in emergencies.

What is Whole30?

And why do I say these are for emergencies? Because technically Whole30 is based on eating whole food and laying off on the snacking (saying goodbye to sugar, grains, dairy and legumes). Food on Whole30 should be minimally processed and as natural as possible. Just like you would find in the wild or growing from a plant.

However, sometimes you need to eat in a hurry or on the run. While most snacks don’t fit the Whole30 lifestyle, EPIC does. Many EPIC foods are as close as you can come for eating a quick snack that is Whole30 compliant.

How is EPIC Whole30?

EPIC products are healthy, clean and compliant with the Whole 30 diet. When you are new to Whole30 you know about the sugar cravings! Going off sugar is a very tough thing to do! Sadly, many snack bars are filled with sugar (and many are good sugar from fruits and such – but still sugar)! However, when going Whole30 you should try to avoid those sugar cravings and eat low sugar foods! Out of all the EPIC products, the lowest sugar foods are the best for when abiding by the Whole30 diet.

I find EPIC bars are the best bars for snacking since they are almost all meat and will fill you up quickly. In turn,  you are less likely to have the sugar spike and desire for more sugar later!

So are EPIC bars and other food products from EPIC Whole 30 approved? Yes. Just be mindful of the sugar content and don’t overdue it and rely only on these bars. Whole30 is about real foods. Of course, I happily have at least an EPIC bar or two on hand just in case I need a Whole30 snack!

The easiest way to see what is Whole30 approved is on the EPIC Whole30 page. You can order all of the EPIC snacks right from the page and easily see what fit the Whole30 plan.
