Being a strictly vegetarian facility, the BumbleBar team loves animals! Almost every team member has a pet of their own, and we share stories about them often! Our operations manager, Jim, has two small Dachshund doggies named Chloe and Bauer. Aimee has a fuzzy orange cat named Opie, while Liz and Glenn have two crazy pups named Hannah and Levi. Hannah, (the BB Team Member, not the dog ☺), has a small terrier mix, named Albert. We asked our crew what their favorite thing is about being a pet owner, and what tips you have for training or managing their animals. Let’s see what they had to say!

BumbleTunes – What We Listen To!
August 5, 2016 by
BumbleBar loves music. The crew is always listening to music while they’re making BumbleBars and JunoBars – and of course our office team always keeps the radio on too! We’re always listening to something, whether it’s a new electronic track, a classic guitar solo, or a crafty remix. Let’s take a look at some of the songs the BumbleBar Team’s been dancin’ to lately..
Every Step You Take..
August 5, 2016 by
Our team now parks farther away and has the opportunity to take a few more steps before getting to work! Did you know that each step you take contributes to the calories you burn throughout the day? It seems like common sense but it’s something we often don’t think about! According to Shape Up America, you’ll burn one calorie for every 20 steps you take. Shape Up America! encourages a goal of taking 10,000 steps per day to burn 500 calories, which equals a pound of fat over the course of a week.
Meet Aimee!

Hi there! My Name is Aimee and I recently joined the BumbleBar team as their Office Guru. I’ll be writing lots of the blog posts you’ll be reading in the future, so I’m sure we’ll get to know each other pretty well. I’m excited to be working with a local company that makes a healthy, wonderful products that taste great. My favorite bar is the Classic Cashew BumbleBar. It’s a great bonus that the bars are gluten free, vegan and a great source of natural energy.
Be Brave! Try Something New!
July 12, 2016 by
Do you remember the last time you tried something new and found your next favorite thing? How did that happen? Maybe a friend cooked for you or let you try their favorite snack? Maybe you tried a new restaurant? Did you read a great Yelp review and decide to give a new bakery a shot? I recently discovered a delicious thing while I was on vacation in New York and stopped by Double Dutch Espresso in Harlem everyday before I went out sightseeing. Avocado toast seems like a thing everyone knew about but me! It’s an amazingly simple combination that has a toasty and savory flavor profile that provides healthy fats and protein. You just toast the bread of your choice and top it with mashed avocado. I drizzle mine with Sriracha and olive oil. Delicious!
