Oh my goodness, I have definitely found my favorite bars! And no, not bars to go out and get drinks, but nutritional bars! (even though my favorite bar downtown did happen to close last week.)
I have gotten different bars at Sprouts before. Usually I get whatever's on sale. I read the labels for grams of sugar, fat, and just the general calories, ingredients and stuff. I usually got Cliff or Luna bars, but were never really all that impressed. I could tell they were really sweet and I thought overly processed to be really all THAT healthy. So, I saw these thinkThin bars one day and decided to try them out. Y'all, I am in heaven with these babies! I like to get the Blueberry and Mixed Nuts bar to replace having trail mix some days, and today I tried the thinkThin peanut butter bar. I opened the package and *duh duh duhhhhh* there was chocolate on it! I was like, "Oh come on!" I didn't get the flavors like chocolate-covered strawberry or lemon cream pie because I thought those were too similar to dessert. Well, turns out these bars have natural cocoa something or other for a coating, even though the bars have 0 grams of sugar. I looked at the ingredients on the label, and cocoa is pretty low on the list, so that's why I didn't notice it. It tasted delicious though! Not chocolately necessarily, but lots of good flavor! It was filling too. I had it for my post-workout meal at probably 2:30, and it kept me full till dinner time. (Till just about now, anyway. My stomach's starting to grumble at me, and it IS time to start making dinner after this post! It's 5:45 right now.)
So, long story short, I highly recommend thinkThin bars to everyone! They're not expensive, yummy, healthy, and are great for breakfast or lunch. I buy three every Wednesday when I go to the store. They're me fav!
