Gritty texture left in my mouth

I have been looking for great tasting protein bars as I have been advised to up my protein intake. Bars are fast and easy, especially if I get busy at work and don't have much time for lunch.

I picked up this vegan protein bar at my local health food store and was impressed by the nutritional value: 16 g protein, 16 g fiber and 4 g sugar. I am not a huge fan of chocolate protein bars, so I decided on the Cashew Coconut. It looked really tasty when I opened the package, and the initial taste was a little bland, but otherwise okay. Unfortunately after chewing the bar has a very gritty texture that stays in your mouth even after you have swallowed.

I would not recommend this bar based on the taste and gritty texture.
