Review: Pro Bar

April 3rd, 2009

The Pro bar is the most delicious bar I’ve had lately, and I’ve been eating a lot of bars these days. The ingredients are very healthy and tasty. The bars are all formulated with organic seeds and nuts, such as Brazil nuts and cashews. The Pro bar really got my attention because of its amazing taste, crunchy-chewy texture and the fact that it’s full of nuts and whole foods. This bar will easily replace junk snacks and you won’t feel any need for more. The bars are slightly caloric, as anywhere from 350 to 450 calories per bar…and with anywhere from 6 to 9 grams of protein each, these are truly meal replacements. The nuts give you healthy omegas and fatty acids. There’s plenty of fiber, vitamins and minerals too.

The SuperFood Slam bar is quite special because the company teams up with some of the best companies in the business to create a terrific bar. It contains Acai powder from Sambazon, Green SuperFood powder from Amazing Grass, and hemp protein from Manitoba Harvest. It’s an amazing bar.

Really, all of the flavors are good, but the ones that stand out include the Kettle Corn, Cocoa Pistachio, Maple Pecan, and Apple Cinnamon Crunch. The dark chocolate (Kokoa Moka) gives you the healthy qualities of chocolate (good for blood pressure, natural anti-depressant, and antioxidants) and lasting energy. Compared to other high-quality nutritional bars, Pro Bars come in at a reasonable price at $3.29 each.

Taste

This is probably the best tasting whole food bar on the market! The nuts and the chocolate blend are very rich and the flavors are all natural and home made. These are not sugary but they are quite sweet and the flavor combinations are well chosen for both flavor and health benefits. All of the bars are crunchy and chewy from the natural grains and nuts. It’s like all these whole food ingredients are pressed together for a super packed treat.
