The first is Country Archer 100% grass-fed beef sticks.

This is a great alternative to other brands like Stryve.

Stryve is a South African company and came very close to being “Bobby Approved”, but since it’s not 100% grass-fed, it didn’t make the cut.

Instead, jerky is made from GMO-fed cows.

Country Archer contains zero sugar and four grams of protein.

Next up is Pure Organic Fruit Bars.

It’s not technically healthy, but it’s the healthier option.

The alternative is Welch’s fruit snacks, which Bobby is adamantly opposed to.

Welch’s adds artificial flavors, GMOs and high fructose corn syrup to its mixed berry snacks.

Although Pure Organic uses natural flavors, the fruit is in fact organic, which makes this the best option.

The 28-pack variety pack was on sale for $8.79, saving shoppers nearly $4.

The next step is flavored water.

Companies like La Croix and Lemon Perfect often claim to be made with natural flavors, but as Bobby says, “there’s nothing natural about it.”

Fortunately, the Spindrift sparkling water was on sale for $11.99, $4 below its original price.

30-pack of cans includes grapefruit, lemon, and lime, all made with real fruit.

For kombucha lovers, Bobby urges shoppers to avoid natural flavors.

Although they are slightly better for you than artificial flavors, they are not the best option.

Bobby explains that while the Kirkland brand isn’t terrible, there is an even better option.

Recommend Health-Ade brand.

If you can splurge, Skinnydipped’s new Keto Chocolate Covered Salted Caramel Bites are the perfect innocent treat.

They are made from allulose, which is a sugar alternative, non-GMO milk and only has one gram of added sugar.
