Really tasty bar
By Angela Evans
I love this bar and that is probably because I love any treat that combines peanuts and chocolate. I don’t consider this a health bar. This has a good amount of sugar and a good amount of fat. I eat them because they are a great cheat treat. When I eat well all day, I look forward to this soft but chewy bar that has real peanuts and what seems to be real chocolate (I detest bars that proclaim to have real chocolate but instead incorporate a fake chocolaty substance).

What I like about this bar:
1) The taste – Wow! For a granola bar the taste is phenomenal. The picture on the box does not lie. You can see peanuts and oats and the chocolate topping tastes awesome. The texture of the oats/nuts melds well with the oats and nuts.

2) Portable and easy to pack – If you try to stay aware of your daily calorie intake, it is always great to have easy to carry snacks with their calories clearly labeled. Who has time to count out the exact number of pretzels that comprise 150 calories? That is part of the appeal of a granola bar. You’ve got a 150 calorie food item that can be placed in a purse or coat pocket and you are out the door.

3) The company has made a conscious effort to reduce packaging in order to reduce impact on the environment. The box is made of 100% recycled materials.

What is questionable about this bar:
1) This is a snack/treat bar and nothing else – This is not a healthful nutrition bar. The product packaging does not necessarily say this is healthful. It does use the words “organic goodness” and boasts “9 grams of whole grains”. These notations may make some think this is a really healthy treat. But it’s not. The bar has low fiber (2g) and pretty high sugar for a 150 calorie bar (11 grams).

2)If you use snacks to hold you over, you probably should find a snack with at least 4 grams of fiber. The 2 gram bar is not going to tide you over very long.

If you feed these to your kids, there is a good likelihood they will like them. They are pretty sweet. But again with the sugar, what else are you giving your kids during the day? Four grams of sugar is equivalent to 1 teaspoon of sugar. So you have about 2 and 3/4 teaspoons in this bar. With everything else your kids consume during the day, (chocolate milk? orange juice? sandwich with jam?), the sugar in this bar may not be worth it to you. Kids usually need 1200 to 1700 calories a day. While there is no prescribed amount of sugar for a kid during the day, I have read that the calories from added sugar should be limited to 10% which, on the low end, would translate to 7 teaspoons of sugar and 11 teaspoons on the high end.

Summary:
Nature’s Path has created a very tasty granola bar with quality ingredients. Props to the company for not saying this was a health or nutrition bar on the box. I am reviewing this as a treat bar and as a treat, it is a delicious option. If it were being reviewed for health, I would not be able to give it four stars as it has high sugar, high fat and low fiber. Don’t expect it to hold you over for hours but do expect it to satisfy your sweet tooth.

These granola bars are made in the United States.

Product STALE! Disappointed!
By Annemarie Lewis
I ordered these in bulk as I’ve purchased them locally. Everywhere I have had them they have been so fresh they “almost” fall apart. The ones I ordered here through Amazon came STALE and because of that have a poor taste and are hard to chew. Very disappointed as they are expensive!

The whole family loves these!
By Diana
These are a healthy treat disguised as a yummy treat! Better than a candy bar.
