I love these energy bars. They are filling and perfect to take with you anywhere and they are so delish!
Like these bars for a quick snack on the go when a lil power is needed!
Lots of flavors to chose from!
They're a tasty way to get protein, mostly because of the sugar in them but in a pinch they work. Added bonus, they are a treat with extra protein in them, so I find them a nice cheat.
Okay so I just tried a Clif Bar for the first time after years of being completely skeptical. The ingredients list is promising; there are too many instances of chocolate though, and alot of sugar. Far too much sugar, at 23g for a "healthy energy bar".
The taste of this one was good, and the texture as well, were both reminiscent of an EatMore bar, which is my favourite chocolate bar. So that was a major plus for me.
I also liked the bits of crunch, although those ingredients are questionable (apple pomace? They must also think this is a strange term as on their website they list "apple fiber" instead!) Pomace, by the way, is leftover bits from making juice, so in the case of apples it means Seeds, Skin, Core, Stems. Would any of you Nomrally include this in your baking? ...

OOPS I don't recommend it. I should have put Fugghedaboutit or whatever
These bars are very very high in carbs & sugar. I would say these are really only good for people who are runners or involved in high impact sports / exercise where you are burning high calories.
I do love these as an on-the-go snack. Often if I am on the run I will grab one of these instead of a meal. The only downside that I cannot bring myself to deal with is the amount of sugar in these bars. I know the type of sugars being used are important, but 1 bar is 50% of the recommended daily sugar intake (as per the Heart & Stroke Foundation). As much as I love these, I try to eat them sparingly. I have found other protein bars that contain at least 50% less sugar.
Though if you put a cool chocolate cliff bar in front of me...I would absolutely devour it.
