REVIEW:

Finding something sweet that tastes good and is good for you is often a difficult task.  There is a sea of sugary snacks to choose from, but find a healthy one and you’ve hit the jackpot.  We’ve hit the jackpot here with these KIND Fruit and Nut snack bars.  They are all natural and made with things that you can actually pronounce.  All of their bars are made from a blend of whole nuts and fruit.  It’s the perfect healthy snack. 

I met KIND at a food show earlier this year and they provided us with a few samples of their bars and I’m glad they did.  These things are delicious!  What impressed me most about this bar was that it tasted very fresh.  You can really taste the freshness of the nuts.  The other thing that impressed us was the sweet flavor.  Seeing the glaze on the bar had us expecting a really sweet bar, but we were pleasantly surprised with a very mellow sweetness.  If you’re a fan of nuts, you will love these bars.  They come in a large variety of flavors so you will find something that caters to your taste. 

These bars have a lot going for them.  They taste great and they are packed with the good nutritious things you need for a healthy diet.  Each bar contains 210 calories, 16 grams of fat, no cholesterol, 10 milligrams of sodium, 4 grams of fiber 5 grams of sugar and 7 grams of protein.  You might be alarmed by the 210 calories and 16 grams of fat, but don’t be, most of it is from the nuts that.  These bars have a ton of fiber in them which, according to Kind’s website, is attributed to curbing cravings.  The protein content is also very high in these bars and as we know, it gives us strength.

Overall, we loved these bars.  They taste great and are pretty good for you.  It would make a great breakfast snack or a middle of the day snack for when you need a pick-me-up.  At $1.99 a piece, it might not be an everyday snack, but it is definitely something we would eat several times a week.  For more information about KIND products, visit their website at: www.kindsnacks.com.

Taste:  These bars taste great!  They taste extremely fresh, they have great texture and great flavor.  They are the perfect mix of sweet and savory.   

Labeling:  The labeling on these bars is very well laid out.  I like the checklist of health benefits on the front. 

Packaging:  These bars come individually wrapped in plastic.
