I think its funny how even though you are giving away so much information FREE! They still want to complain that you haven't mentioned all the micro-nutrients and other information about each item... People, please do your own research! Take everything you learn online and follow up on your own. Thank you Abbey for making fun and easy guides for us to follow! I love your content and will keep coming back for more tips and your F-bombs ;)
Hi Abbey, I've been watching a lot of your videos lately and I love that you are encouraging people to build a healthy relationship with food, and to focus on intuitive eating rather than being trapped in diet culture. I was surprised by how different this video seemed from a lot of the others...I kept expecting you to reiterate your usual "you don't need to eliminate gluten unless you are specifically intolerant" point that you often make. Instead, the fact that many of these products are gluten free seemed like another one of their virtues, like their being a good source of protein, and are satiating, etc. I was also surprised at your glowing review of the "Think Thin" oatmeal...that label seems to be exactly the kind of possibly disordered or triggering thing that you make entire videos calling out. It seems like many people would not benefit from starting their day eating from a container that reminds them to "Think Thin", and even if the product is super tasty, that seemed like a great moment to mention that these snacks are meant to be a part of a positive and mindful eating experience, not to be promoters of diet culture and negative body image. I know that it must be repetitive and exhausting for you to keep making all these points in every video, and apologies for nitpicking when the rest of your channel makes your positions on these issues so clear, but I was struck by how someone might take this content very differently than intended without having seen so many of your other videos. I do really enjoy your content, and thank you for being such a positive and encouraging presence here on youtube.
Im curious, how does heat effect the bacterial probiotics in some of these products? If you have to microwave or add boiling water, wouldn’t that kill the bacteria? Love your videos!
Ohhhh some of these are great options! My hubby is in Fire Academy right now and needs some good snack options to fuel his grueling days... I'll have to check some of these out! I'm always on the hunt for good protein packed snacks for him :)
I make porridge in the microwave. I use either dried or frozen fruit, oat milk for me and toddler soya milk for my daughter and porridge oats. I just stick it in the microwave for a few minutes and it's done. Much cheaper alternative to the ready made stuff and not really that much more work.
@@yingyang1008 Got any actual evidence that soya is worse than cow's milk in terms of radiation? No? Dietetic organisations recommend toddler soya milk as an appropriate alternative to soya milk. I think I'll listen to them.
@@strangekat2840 Yeah, and make sure you keep microwaving the food you give to your kid as well, that way they'll grow up big and strong Dietetic organisations have spent the last 50 years telling Americans to eat margarine instead of butter and to stop eating super foods like egg yolks - it's tough to imagine more moronic advice than that
@@yingyang1008 Do you have any actual scientific evidence that microwaves are harmful? Or that soya is harmful? There isn't any. And I live in England, not the US.
@@strangekat2840 'Science' tells us to eat margarine instead of butter - time to stop listening to that kind of garbage - they are either morons or deliberately trying to harm us If you can't see the problem with microwaving food then I feel sorry for you Whether soya milk is actually harmful is up for debate - but compared with fresh animal milk it's basically worthless in terms of nutrition
Thanks for sharing all of these awesome snacks. Love your videos. And Canadian customs officials can be so strict sometimes, I always pack so much food when I visit Canada and they always question me, especially all of my vegan food.
some research has found that probiotics killed by heat can still have beneficial effects and may have anti-inflammatory effects. You can check out the study here: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5338013/
I was at 7/11 recently, and while they're not the most reliable when it comes to finding a healthy snack, they did have something interesting...PROTEIN GUMMIES! They were made with split pea protein, and one bag had about 10 grams of protein and 27g of fibre! They were 100% vegan, clean ingredients, made in Canada, AND they tasted just like your standard sugar filled fruit gummies, with only 1 gram of sugar. They were on the pricey side, $3.50 CAD for 50g, so I've been looking for them at other grocery stores to compare. Haven't had any luck finding them, but definitely something I can lean towards other than a bag of chips when I get the late night munchies.
Would love to see some sample breakfast, lunch and dinner meal ideas for vegan babes! My son is 11 months and I’m always looking for more info and ideas
Oh my gosh that is so much packaging. Any recommendations for healthy snacks like that that come in less plastic? And snacks that are less expensive? These look tasty but probably out of my price range
This channel really keeps me in check on having a balanced diet and not over/under eating. I was wondering if you checked out Caitlin Shoemakers videos before? I used to binge watch her videos.
I have to start taking painkillers through out the day due to a spine injury, but I also desperately need to loose the guts. But I have to eat when taking the medication or it burns my stomach. Have you got any suggestions?
Hi! Do you think in the future you could include the fat grams and carbs when listing the nutritionals? I personally watch your channel for ideas for healthy, vegan options as I have chronic pancreatitis and have to stick to a low fat, vegetarian diet. I know with the keto craze the carbs might help people, too.
thank you so much! I have a really, really hard time finding snack foods that are safe for me to enjoy and it would be so helpful. Thank you for everything that you do! I just found your channel and I especially enjoyed your videos breaking down the "What I Eat in a Day" videos.
Abby, I’m a new subscriber and I really like your videos. I was wondering what the other macronutrients are, not just protein. How much fat? How many carbs? I’d also love to see (not that you have to do this) some videos on how one can be healthy if they have very little money. I’m a student and have barely enough money to afford more than dry beans and dry rice after my bills and rent are taken from my small paycheck. What do you recommend when someone can’t buy a whole lot at the store?
Replace the chickpeas with baked eggplant and call it baba ganouj! Don't forget tahini! Alternatively you could consider that your source of beans is actually contaminated with chemicals, or grown in a monocrop. and try this source www.amazon.ca/Certified-Organic-Garbanzo-Chickpeas-Sproutable/dp/B072V3WN16/ref=mp_s_a_1_4/134-7933419-0733202?ie=UTF8&qid=1549192277&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=chick+peas+organic&dpPl=1&dpID=51WS22T0wmL&ref=plSrch Third maybe you are the reason for your suffering, maybe you have an internal issue (gut bacteria is quite complex) I presume if you solve said issue (assuming that it exists) your symptoms will go away and you can eat delish hummus Lastly maybe it's the bread not the dip, this is my fav (only because of the ingredients list) www.walmart.ca/en/ip/stonemill-bavarian-light-sourdough-rye-bread/6000197290403
ok, I followed everything. but how is a microwaved muffin healthy? it's honestly healthier to buy a freshly baked muffin from a coffee shop or bakery in my opinion. just sharing my opinion, no hate.
I wanted to know your thoughts on hot probiotic foods, I’ve always learned that live cultures die at a certain heat, so how can probiotics stay potent if they’re cooked in the oatmeal?
Hi Abbey, I know protein is important, but I was wondering: How come you as a Dietitian suggest to eat soooo much protein? I have clients myself and protein deficiencies are not really the case, unless you live in a 3rd world country or starve yourself. It's more fiber and micronutrients I'm concerned about.
When you start advertising certain products for a certain company, I start questioning whether you are also sponsored by someone when you comment on foods in other videos.
White refined sugar? regular Vegetable oil? Those are not healthy! Your reading off macronutrients, how many vital nutrients and phytochemicals are in some of these snacks. We are discovering new phytochemicals everyday and freelee and Kristina aswell as Joe cross and John rose (take John with a grain of salt LOL) are getting first hand experience in this field.

So sad that everything is packed separately in plastic sachets
Olivia Stencel I think that’s largely because they are samples from a conference and so only small portions
100000%!!
(Not abbeys fault of course!)
My protein bars come in home compostable packaging, would be amazing for all companies to do this!
Im curious, how does heat effect the bacterial probiotics in some of these products? If you have to microwave or add boiling water, wouldn’t that kill the bacteria? Love your videos!
Why didn't you mention the amount of sugar in these? I think it would be useful too.
I do mention that some of them don't have added sugar.
Ohhhh some of these are great options! My hubby is in Fire Academy right now and needs some good snack options to fuel his grueling days... I'll have to check some of these out! I'm always on the hunt for good protein packed snacks for him :)
Yes! Check these out!
I like Trader Joe’s yellow lentil and brown rice pasta a lot. 15g protein and only 190 calories. Super good for a pasta in my opinion.
i really like banza chickpea pasta. it’s really good and has a lot of protein.
I make porridge in the microwave. I use either dried or frozen fruit, oat milk for me and toddler soya milk for my daughter and porridge oats. I just stick it in the microwave for a few minutes and it's done.

radiated soy milk - watch those bones grow strong and healthy

So annoying. Thanks love!
Those sound great, but the amount of packaging is off putting. Especially with the single wrapped items.
Wouldn't the probiotics die as soon as you microwave them??
some research has found that probiotics killed by heat can still have beneficial effects and may have anti-inflammatory effects. You can check out the study here: www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC5338013/
Can you do another video like this but with iron rich foods?
Yeah would love iron rich recipes
2019 has just started yet and we already have the best, yeah! ;-)
i feel so many different feelings as i am abbie sharpe

I also like the simple whole unprocessed snacks though like Brothers Green took a write-in of sliced cucumbers sprinkled with chaat masala SO GOOD
Thanks for the awesome snack recommendations!
You're welcome :)
Oh my gosh that is so much packaging. Any recommendations for healthy snacks like that that come in less plastic? And snacks that are less expensive? These look tasty but probably out of my price range
I would love to see a discussion or course about intuitive eating and why many people are not successful in that!
I live in Germany and would love to try that high protein oatmeal. I wish the market here was as progressive.

thanks for sharing Abbey, 'preciate it! 😎
Omg those all look so good!
I’m curious which Canadian grocery stores will be carrying these. I’m going to have to keep an eye out at Superstore.
I love chickpeas but they make me soo sick but I honestly love hummus - is there a way to substitute them?
you could replace chickpeas with any type of bean, like white beans
Replace the chickpeas with baked eggplant and call it baba ganouj! Don't forget tahini!
Alternatively you could consider that your source of beans is actually contaminated with chemicals, or grown in a monocrop. and try this source www.amazon.ca/Certified-Organic-Garbanzo-Chickpeas-Sproutable/dp/B072V3WN16/ref=mp_s_a_1_4/134-7933419-0733202?ie=UTF8&qid=1549192277&sr=8-4&pi=AC_SX236_SY340_FMwebp_QL65&keywords=chick+peas+organic&dpPl=1&dpID=51WS22T0wmL&ref=plSrch
Third maybe you are the reason for your suffering, maybe you have an internal issue (gut bacteria is quite complex) I presume if you solve said issue (assuming that it exists) your symptoms will go away and you can eat delish hummus
Lastly maybe it's the bread not the dip, this is my fav (only because of the ingredients list) www.walmart.ca/en/ip/stonemill-bavarian-light-sourdough-rye-bread/6000197290403
@@pownasor3 thanks you, I do make baba ganoush quite often. And I don't think its contamination, I use multiple sources...
@@AbbeysKitchen thank you for the tip! bean hummus should be fun. hopefully it tastes similar
So which one was vegan?
Do these brands have any low waste options? Other than that, everything looks great!

Hey Emily, I wrote a post about that here: www.abbeyskitchen.com/probiotic-supplement/
With the granola cups, you definitely can overdo probiotics! They're putting them everywhere but that can be dicey.
well for people that aren't getting enough probiotics from other foods these are great!
Soooo you have celiac ? Or are you saying gluten free is best for everyone?
Thank you for sharing. All look super good! However, the music was distracting and I had a hard time hearing you over it.
Jo Smith now THIS is how you leave constructive criticism without being rude.
Sorry to hear that. I will look into that :)
seeing as i am in the uk i wont be able to buy any of these

Almond protein powder can't be environmentally friendly, there must be better options
