Click here to watch review by Phil Lempert- Supermarket Guru. This product is a HIT! This is one of the best tasting chocolate energy bars – the taste is nice and chocolate-y, without any aftertaste. The Glycemic Index is just 23 – Glycemic Index of 55 and below is considered to be low. The Glycemic Index gives foods a rating from 0 to 100 with glucose scoring 100; it relates to the way our body’s sugar levels respond to certain foods. Made with whole grain oats, each bar is 150 calories, has 3 grams of fiber and 5 grams of protein. Like chocolate? This one is for you!
awesome ingredient list + good taste = high rating! Fudge Brownie: Two words: My Favorite. This bar hit a home run in the natural-but-tastes-amazing category. Fudge like consistency in a granola bar that tastes like a brownie? Mouthgasm/sold! The only thing wrong with these bars is that it wasn’t long enough (I wanted more!).
Our tasters really enjoyed…Each of the four flavors taste like their namesake, they’re low in sodium, low on the glycemic index, and the texture is really soft and chewy. Overall (4.5 out of 5)
