I LOVE Brookside chocolate to begin with but this...chocolate married with a healthy, non-GMO granola bar is just a perfect match made in heaven! These bars are perfect for an afternoon snack right around 3pm when you get hit with a sweet tooth craving, but packs enough punch to keep you full on the good stuff until dinner! Packed with flavor, the right amount of crunch yet still soft and chewy...I have to say, I was QUITE surprised by how delicious these bars are and I love the flavor variety! Even my husband liked them (and he normally hates granola/snack bars!) and asked where I was hiding the others! I HIGHLY recommend the Brookside brand!
Edited to add: This was the bar my husband got, since I dislike both cranberries and blackberries and they happen to be his favorite! He loved this combination, he said it was the perfect amount of sweetness and crunch. He thought I t was surprisingly filling in between breakfast and lunch and he wanted to know why I didn't come home with a box from the store that day!
I think these bars are amazing, packed with nuts and flavor - the chocolate is not over powering at all, its just a light layer at the bottom, the bars are soft and chewy and are just the right amount of filling for that period between breakfast and lunch at work.
I got to try these for free through Chickadvisor and oh my goodness, they were delicious!! A good snack to keep your energy up. The taste was pretty good.It tastes nice and its got a nice texture.The sweetness from the fruit combines perfectly with the dark chocolate.
I love the combination of blackberries and cranberries I love the different kinds of nuts and it has just the right amount of dark chocolate I would tell anyone that says they don't like dark chocolate to try the brookside brand
I am in love with this bar. The balance between fruit/nuts/chocolate is absolutely perfect and is a delight on my tastebuds. It is made with real fruit and the nuts maintain a crunch rather than getting soggy like in similar bars. The sweetness from the fruit combines perfectly with the dark chocolate so this bar is neither too sweet nor bitter. For 180 calories per bar I would gladly reach for this over a "chocolate" bar any day. The best part is my kids (age 15, 12) loved it too! If I haven't already made you want to run out and purchase this flavour of the Brookside Fruit & Nut Bar how about this - not only is it made with real fruit and other natural flavours but uses non-GMO ingredients, is a source of fibre (3g), and is gluten free. It really is that good and will be a regular staple in my snack cupboard in the future. I received this product free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club, opinions are my own.
I really liked the taste of this bar. There was just enough sweetness to it to make me feel like I was having a treat - but it was the fruit so it was guilt free! It was just the right texture. Not too sticky but not too stiff. Lovve the chocolate layer as well! Would definitely have this one again!
Chick Advisor sent me three of these bars to review for free and I'm delighted that they choose me. These bars were delicious and nutritious and the perfect food while your on the go. I did prefer the Blueberry and Acai flavour better then this one but this flavour was still very good. I will definitely be purchasing these in the future and recommend these bars to anyone who travels a lot and needs that little burst of energy during their day.
I really liked the Brookside Dark Chocolate Fruit & Nut Bars because it is delicious and nutritious! I love that it is affordable too; I highly recommend it! I keep them in my lunch bag and purse to snack on in between meals :)
This is my least favourite flavour out of the three different Brookside Bars; however, if I didn't have a choice between the three flavours and was hungry, I would still enjoy this bar due to the nutritional value. I still think it's a good value.
I have received this product for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club- thanks Chickadvisor!!
One thing I found about this fruit and nut bar that I find appealing is the fact that they combined cranberry with blackberry, which is a combination rarely done in these type of nut bars!
I definitely found the taste factor to be amazing and compared to those like the Simple protein bars or Nature Valley, I enjoy it more. I would try this again and would definitely recommend it to a friend!
Very good flavours. I could taste all the fruits and nuts put into this. It makes a very good snack. The dark chocolate doesn't get notice as much with each bite. But every other flavor does. Great texture. My daughter has barces and she cold eat it properly. I couldn't taste many blackberries but cranberries were present. Very good product!!!
