A seed walks into a bar...

Look out, Flaxseed: there's a new seed in town.

Chia seeds have been winning superfood smackdowns thanks to their energy-boosting, mood-improving and appetite-suppressing benefits (they have ridiculously high amounts of omega-3s and fiber), but lots of us are confused about how to eat them.

Enter Health Warrior. The NYC-based company was started by two self-proclaimed chia snobs who eat the seeds daily to stay fit. Their secret: scoop chia into any of these fun recipes.

Not in the mood to prep? Discover Health Warrior's vegan, 100-calorie chia bars in peanut butter chocolate. (A berry flavor is in the works!) Open the wrapper, and you'll find a cluster of nutty, little seeds--a far cry from your usual pasty energy bar--that's only a little bit sweet, has a satisfying crispiness (think: poppy seeds) and won't weigh you down.

Want a taste? Stop by Westerly Natural Market any Wednesday in October from 11AM-2PM to sample the bars.

Get in fighting shape.
