Occasionally I get sample products sent to me in the mail and here is a nutrition bar that I liked and my brief review of the product.
I received a few samples of the Kashi Joi Raspberry Dark Chocolate Nut Bar. I also would have liked to receive a few of the other flavors, but regardless, it is delicious, nutritious and a wholesome nut bar made with real ingredients including lots of almonds, peanuts, hazelnuts, quinoa, raspberries and dark chocolate for the chocolate lover in you!
It has to be my favorite bar and my favorite tasting bar loaded with nuts, mouth-watering delicious chocolate and overal goodness. They are absolutely and sinfully delicious!
It’s ideal as a quick snack in the middle of your work day when you may be hungry and it is quite filling. Not a meal replacement but a healthy snack alternative. The 40g bar has 6g of protein and 5g of sugar. It’s not a lot of protein and very little sugar. The nut bar does not taste sweet at all.
It does not have the higher amount of protein that a protein bar would have, but what it does have is a great taste and all natural ingredients that you can actually read and know what they are combined with much less sugar than many granola bars, snack bars and protein bars although the trend for protein bars is towards lowering sugar as much as possible or maybe one day eliminating sugar.
Here is my video review of the Kashi nut bar:
Regardless, of which you like - the various types of nutrition bars or protein bars, read the nutrition labels carefully to make your healthy eating choice. Nowadays, it is possible to enjoy great taste without the added sugar and salt.
