Patricia Daibes Posted November 9, 2020 Share Posted November 9, 2020 In the book (p. 201), it says that these protein bars are allowed in cases of emergencies. These brands are specified, but I noticed that they contain peanuts that are not allowed in Whole30. So now? I'm confused if I can eat or not. I am on my seventh day of the program.

Moderators ShannonM816 Posted November 10, 2020 Moderators Share Posted November 10, 2020 No, anything with peanuts is not allowed. Which book are these mentioned in (these are all the Whole30 books that are available: https://whole30.com/books/)? The varieties of this brand I looked at had other non-Whole30 ingredients as well, so I'm wondering if they changed, or if you unfortunately got a hold of a copycat book trying to cash in on Whole30's popularity, which unfortunately has happened before.

Patricia Daibes Posted November 10, 2020 Author Share Posted November 10, 2020 No, this is the original version in Portuguese. Look: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look: I'm not sure what happened here then. Maybe they have some varieties that are Whole30, or maybe their recipes have changed and used to be Whole30, but peanuts are definitely not Whole30, and the ones I saw also had rice and corn, which are not allowed either. Definitely always read ingredients for everything, no matter where you've seen a particular brand recommended. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SchrodingersCat Posted November 11, 2020 Share Posted November 11, 2020 The ThinkThin ones (Now just Think!) are totally not compliant either... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Patricia Daibes Posted November 20, 2020 Author Share Posted November 20, 2020 Hello there! I looked at the book's English version and it really only indicates the bars of the RxBars brand. I believe that in the Brazilian edition they have added these other brands as they are easier to find in the national market, as they do not sell RxBars here. However, these national brands contain peanuts in some bars from what I saw when trying to buy - so an ingredient not allowed in the program.
