If you crave something sweet it's a good choice, but it may not be the best choice for an afternoon snack that will sustain your hunger until it's time for supper

I liked the taste of the fruit in this one, and I'm not normally an Acai person. The chocolate is very good quality, I just find that I classify this as more of a "treat" than a snack that I would take in my lunch every single day.

Loved this product! tastes great! Its an awesome alternative to granola bars or breakfast bars! deffinately reccommend. My 6 year old also loved it. I have not had a chance to purchase on my own yet, so i am unsure of the prices

I received 3 of the Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars (different flavors) from Chick Advisor to review.

Blueberry with Açai Flavor:

Another not so good bar (see my other review for Cherry with Pomegranate).

For the life of me, I couldn't find Açai listed in the ingredients. Açai flavour? not according to the list of ingredients. I even checked their website. Crazy.

Just like the Cherry bar, this one has a ton of sugar in it - a whopping 13g out of the 39g bar (33% sugar!!).

This bar, like the other two, tasted very fresh (wow!) and very flavourful. It's unfortunate that Brookside fails to provide a healthy bar (imo). Get rid of the concentrate fruit juices, the sweetened fruit, and the sweetened chocolate.

I'm trying to eat healthy and cut out refined sugars. Replace your sugar with honey, cut back your dark chocolate and give me unsweetened 70% cocoa dark chocolate. Sure it may not taste as fantastic, but after a few bars and a low sugar diet, the palate adapts and no longer requires something soooooo sweet.

Don't get me wrong, the bars do taste good, but so does a chocolate bar.

Angel on my shoulder says: eat something healthier.
Devil in my ear whispers: eat another bar.

This jammed packed dark chocolate fruit & nut bars with blueberry/acai flavour sound totally healthy and is a nice 3pm snack for days when you are craving something a little sweet. It is tasty and really hits the spot. The only think that I have my reservations on is the price tag - at a whopping $1.99 each bar, I don't think that it is something that I could buy all the time. Occasionally maybe, just not something that I would keep stocked up on.

In the past I have tried the Brookside chocolate covered fruit and was impressed by the variety and flavor. They have a much larger assortment of chocolate covered foods available than the normal raisins and peanuts.

This is a review of the Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars - Blueberry with Acai. I didn't find that this flavor stood out. I didn't really feel like the blueberry flavor was strong enough for the bar. I really liked that all the bars had a light coating of chocolate on the bottom so the flavor of the chocolate wasn't overpowering and it wasn't like a chocolate bar but closer to a granola bar. I'm sure this helps to make it healthier. The bars came in quite handy for days when we have multiple activities and I needed a quick snack to keep my energy up.

While I wouldn't necessarily purchase these for my children, as they don't appreciate more complicated flavors and are fine with the grocery store variety of granola bar, I would buy these as a treat or to put in a gift basket for a friend.

I am not usually a big fan of blueberry and have never really tried acai before. Although this was my least favorite of the 3 that I tried, his bar was definitely a pleasant surprise! The taste didn't wow me or make me want more. Let's say, I would probably grab one of the other Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit and Nut bars over this one.

Tasty and filling but not usually the flavour I like-blueberry and dark chocolate but I would eat again because it met my needs of sweet, filling, and not terrible for me.

I received this product as part of the Product Review Club. First of, I highly recommend you do not eat this product if it is cold at all. It is rock hard, and essentially not edible. The flavour was pretty good, but as I am not a blueberry fan, I would likely never purchase one. The addition of nuts make this a higher protein bar, but the amount of sugar it contains still make it more of a treat, rather than a health food.

It had a good taste but it was a little like a berry that you get from fruit leather. It would be ok to keep in your purse if you need something in a hurry
