in love with Barnana too! Available now at select Whole Foods
locations, Barnana will hit their shelves nationwide in June. Also
added to their growing national list are Safeway stores and over a
hundred Sprouts Farmers Market stores to come in March.

Barnana has no additives or no preservatives and is naturally sweet.
Barnana Original Chewy Banana Bites are organic, gluten free, non-GMO,

and chewy and taste like fresh banana bread. With only one ingredient,
pure organic banana, Barnana is an exceptional source of potassium and
