 HoneyBar does a fantastic job in creating great flavor blends from just a few ingredients, and the Chocolate Peanut Butter selection is no exception. The ingredient statement listed honey, peanuts, rolled oats, peanut butter, semi-sweet chocolate, and crisp brown rice; nothing more, nothing less. I can best describe this overall mix as a hearty no bake cookie or a dense granola bar. The texture is a soft and chewy blend of peanuts, rolled oats, and crisp brown rice. In terms of taste, it was just mildly sweet with well-defined flavors and a very predominant peanut punch. I really liked the use of semi-sweet chocolate rather than cocoa in this bar, as it was not overpowering. As an afternoon or post-workout recharge this bar gets the thumbs up with 14 grams of protein. Although a bit high, the 14g of sugar and 10g of fat will offer some quick and lasting afternoon energy, while the overall 200 calories won’t break the diet bank.
- Pros: Very good source of protein; Simple ingredients; Egg, soy, and wheat free; Pleasant texture
- Cons: A bit too high in fat and sugar for regular snacking
Recommended for: - Peanut Fans
