Pilot Bottle to Pen (B2P) Recycled Water Bottle Pen Review and Giveaway #Review #Giveaway #GoingGreen #B2P
April 25, 2016 By
My husband and I are always using pens in our home. We have a drawer filled of them and unfortunately most are disposable. I hate just tossing them into the trash and would prefer to use refillable pens. I was contacted to review refillable gel pens made out of recycled bottles.
Here is some information about the B2P Gel Roller Pens:
- Made from 89% recycled content
- Vibrant G2 Gel Ink for smooth, effortless writing
- Meets ISO 14001 and 14021 standards
- Available in vivid colors as well as black, blue and red ink.
- Retractable and Refillable with G2 Refills
Bottle-2-Pen (B2P) is the world’s first pen made from recycled bottles. Approximately 2.5 million plastic bottles enter landfills every hour in the United States, and comprise close to 50% of all recyclable waste. Pilot manufactures B2P gel ink pens from 89% post-consumer recycled plastic bottles. Pilot’s B2P pens write smoothly, have vibrant inks are and are 100% refillable. So you can write the next chapter for a cleaner planet with B2P.
I’m a fan of Pilot products, and their idea of recycling bottles into pens is awesome. I received a vivid multi color pack which includes Purple, Blue, Dark green, Light green and Pink. I also received a Red two pack. They are 0.7mm fine tip. I love the colors, they are very bright and the ink gives a unique personal look. The look of the pens is very cool, looks just like a water bottle with the ridges and all. The pen fits nicely in my hand, has a nice grip to it and is very comfortable to write with. The ink comes out nice and smooth and doesn’t smear.
These pens are refillable and take the standard G2 refills with any color you would like, and are easy to find at a store near you (they had them at my local Publix and Target).

Craving a Chocolate Bar? Try a YummySnack® Bar™! Review and Giveaway #YummySnack @YummyHealthTips #Review #Giveaway
April 18, 2016 By
I love candy bars! That is my biggest snack weakness, hand me a full bag of any type of candy bar and the bag will be empty within an hour. I have always tried to pick healthier snacks, but when you are craving a chocolate bar you need a chocolate bar! I was able to sample YummySnack® Bars™ which are a healthier alternative to a candy bar/chocolate bar.
Here is some info on Yummy Health:
Our products are much lower in sugar and processed starches—ingredients that can cause weight gain, cravings, and mood swings—than typical junk foods and even many so-called “healthy” snacks.
We use real natural ingredients with real nutrients, like cocoa, coconut, almond butter and flax seed in our YummySnack® Bar™, and real Wisconsin cheese and seasonings in our YummySnack® Chips™, for clean energy that won’t have them bouncing off the walls and crashing moments later!
It’s not just what we put in, but what we leave out: you won’t find gluten, hydrogenated oils, trans fats, high-fructose corn syrup, artificial colors, artificial flavors or preservatives in any of our YummySnack®products.
I received 7 varieties of the YummySnack bars to try. The flavors I received are Cookie Dough, Brownie, Chocolate, Coconut, Peppermint, Peanut Butter and Caramel Nut. Each bar, regardless of flavor, is Gluten Free, Low sugar (5-8 g, compared to the 20+ g of regular candy bars), High fiber (up to 10 grams), Protein (from 3-10 g), and 100% of your Omega-3s for the day(no fish taste, just awesome chocolate taste). It makes me feel good knowing I am not filling my body with tons of fat and sugar when I am craving a candy bar.
The first flavor I tried was the Cookie Dough. This flavor was really good, tasted just like a chocolate chip cookie but less sweet. This bar also kept me completely full until it was dinner time 5 hours later. This is huge for me since I am always snacking during the day because I seem to never stay full. I am also a big fan of the Peppermint flavor, chill these in the fridge or freezer and they taste just like a peppermint patty! My husband really enjoyed the Coconut, he said the taste and texture is the same as the Mounds candy bar. All of the flavors are really delicious, and I can’t wait to purchase more to have for my kids and for myself.
Coconut bar
These are perfect for cravings, and also for kids that want a chocolate bar. They will love the variety of flavors offered, and you can feel good knowing you gave them something healthier than your average candy bar. YummyHealth also makes YummySnack Chips! To check out all the varieties of chips and bars, please click here.
