I received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club. I didn't care for the flavour. I love fresh blueberries, so I thought I probably would like this as well, but not. Nothing to do with the bar persay, but it definitely worth trying. It was pretty good in taste, but not for me. Worth trying at least once to see for yourself if you like it.
Received this for free as part of the Chick Advisor Product Review Club. Out of the 3 sample flavours, this was my least favourite. wasn't very sweet and I feel like it could have had way more chocolate. I would buy the other flavours, just not a fan of this one.
Very hight quality bar! Natural and healthy ingredients, full of goodness. The only negative thing for me is that i'm not a blueberry person. Aside from that, they are delicious... as their chocolate!
I received the Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars - Blueberry with Acai to review as part of the Chick-Advisor Review Club.
I'm not usually a fan of acai and I did find the flavour overwhelming in this bar compared to the other ingredients, but as a whole it was very nice. I think it was the dark chocolate that made a difference. Very chewy yet crunchy.
It isn't much healthier compared to other snack bars when it comes to sugar and calorie content, but it is more nutritious and offers antioxidants.
I would eat this again and would recommend it!
It's like a granola bar amplified! Blueberry with acai didn't sound too appealing at first- it sounded too superfoodie, but it was delicious. The size of the bar is just perfect- not too small that you're wanting more, but not so big it feels like an entire meal. The blueberry flavor was sweet yet still tart. Delicious.
Got three different flavors of bars in to try -- Blueberry with Acai, Cherry with Pomegranate and Cranberry with Blackberry. All tasted good -- a nice mix of sugary sweet and healthy. Cherry with Pomegranate was my favorite but all tasted good. Not too sickly sweet/sugar overload like with a straight chocolate bar but not the drab and unpleasant force myself to chew and swallow that I usually get when I eat a healthy 'fruit' bar snack.
A really nice ratio of chocolate to pleasant tasting fruits and nuts with the darker, less sweet taste off setting the sweeter taste of dried fruit.
Pleasantly surprised overall - will now reach for one of those instead of a less appealing quick snack on the go at a checkout!
we received free samples of these bars and we were very surprised with how good they actually tasted! my husband took them to work for a nutritional snack and he said that they gave him some extra energy to make it through the day.
We were impressed and would definitely buy the brookside bars again!
These are good for you which is why I think they're a good snack but in terms of taste, this was not my favourite. it has a odd blueberry taste which made me not like it as much. Its a tad too sweet for my liking as well. i'm not sure i would get this again because i found the blueberry taste to be a bit off but i liked the nuts in there.
I received this bar, as well as the two other varieties/flavours to review. I love these bars. Perfect balance of satisfying dark chocolate, crunchy nuts and dry fruit! I love that these are not too sweet. I like how this one tastes, but my favourite of the 3 varieties is the Cranberry & Blackberry one!
If you like really sweet bars, these are not for you! But I love that they are pretty healthy!
I am not a huge granola bar fan...but I can get behind this fruit and nut bar. There are so many WHOLE almonds in this, and you can actually taste them. I am not usually one for dark chocolate, but it added sweetness without being bitter. The only thing I was not a fan of was the blueberry. I LOVE blueberries, but found that the flavor took over all the other flavors.
I wouldn't buy this kind of Bookside bar again, but would definitely recommend it to any fans of blueberry.
