    I did not care for this bar. I really wanted to like it! Like the others though! The taste was dry and slightly bitter/sour. Love the idea of the pumpkin seeds in it though. The sour fruit overpowered the chocolate taste.

    this is my least favourite out of the 3 bars that I've tried. Nothing wrong with the bar itself, just personal preferences- I don't like cherries! Unfortunately all I tasted was the cherries, which overpowered everything else...would definitely recommend this bar for the cherry lovers!

    This was my favourite flavour! A very tasty fruit and nut bar. The dark chocolate added nice depth and sweetness, and there was a nice textural balance between the chew of the fruit and the crunch of the nuts. I only wish it were slightly lower in calories.

    So delicious! Im so happy that I received these bars to sample as part of the review club! At first you taste the fruitiness and then the nuttiness followed by the amazing dark chocolate! As with the other bars I sampled, I do feel that at 13g of sugar, its a bit much however its a great treat to carry in your purse for an afternoon snack with some tea! The bars are gluten free and a source of fibre! As a long time fan of anything Brookside, these bars did not disappoint and I will look forward to eating them again! Hoping to find them on sale because $1.99 per bar is a bit steep... but the tastiness is so worth it!

    I think this was my personal favorite. The pomegranate adds tartness to the bar and combined with dark chocolate, the fruit stands out even more. Love it!

    I received the Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars - Cherry with Pomegranate to review as part of the Chick-Advisor Review Club.

    I am not a fan of pomegranate. I was actually dreading trying this bar because of it. To my surprise, it ended up being my favourite bar!

    It has a great texture that is the right mix of chewy and crunchy. The chocolate is subtle and really enhances the fruit flavours, especially the cherry.

    I really like this and would definitely buy it again.

    I love the Dark Chocolate Covered Fruit Pieces by Brookside so I couldn't wait to try their fruit and nut bars. Although this Cherry and Pomegranate version was good, I prefer the taste of the Blueberry and Acai bar as the cherries are a little too overpowering for my taste. However, I do like the nutritional value of these bars as they have Vitamins A, C and E and are a great source of fiber. They are also Non-GMO, Low Sodium and Gluten Free. I wish that they contained less sugar, but due to the nutritional benefits of this bar, I would definitely choose it over a regular granola bar. The nuts and seeds are also very delicious and I am normally not a huge fan.

    I received a sample of this product to review. All opinions are my own.

    I received the 3 Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit and Nut bars from the Chickadvisor Product Review Club. The bars are all delicious but the cherry one was my favourite. When I think of a granola bar, I think the Quaker kind (as in, artificial and typically chocolate coated) – don’t worry, these taste nothing like that. I love how they are not too sweet and the dark chocolate dip on the bottom is a nice touch. They have great crunch and are jam packed with nuts and seeds.

    It was 11 am. I was starving. It was not yet time for lunch....but I had a Brookside Dark Chocolate Cherry with Pomegranate in front of me. Perfect! I really enjoyed it. It may be a bit sweeter than I had expected (due to the chocolate, of course) but the salty/fruity/sweetness was an excellent combo. The first thing that hit me was the smell of cherry, which was lovely. There was a good crunch to the bar due to the nuts and then a satisfying chewiness. It definitely sated me and I wouldn't hesitate to buy this kind again.

    Expensive and contains more sugar then I hoped. I like that it contains nuts (protein!) and that it is made of dark chocolate (not a fan of milk chocolate). My youngest daughter didn't like it at all.

    I prefer bars with no chocolate and that contain less sugar and more fiber and protein. At least it is dark chocolate, which I do enjoy eating. I found this product ok but the taste is too similar from one flavor to the other. My youngest daughter didn't like this flavor at all.
