These days everyone is moving in on the ‘get healthy’ bandwagon.  Some products try to trick you with their ingredient lists and flashy packaging.  I was happy to come across these delicious Sunrype bars that really do try to keep things as natural as they can.  There is nothing unpronounceable in their bars, and the taste is something the whole family can agree on.   I received two types of Fruit and Chia bars, and two types of Energy bars.  All of them were delicious, but hands down everyone’s favorite in this house was the Raspberry Chocolate Energy Bar.

Just look at the chunks of chocolate! NomNomNom

I admit I steer clear of energy bars mainly because of their texture and they always come across as too sugary sweet for my liking.  Not these Sunrype bars!  They are the perfect texture, and not too sweet.  You can really taste both the raspberries and the chocolate, but you don’t feel guilty when you polish off the whole bar.   My husband loves to grab them for a breakfast as he heads off to work, and the kids always ask for them as an after school or camp snack.  And I feel GOOD about letting them pick out one of the bars.  I generally steer the kids towards the Fruit and Chia bars, but these energy bars are full of fruit, gluten-free oats, sunflower, flax, and an energetic blend of pea protein, green tea and ginseng.  It gives you an energy boost without a sugary crash an hour later.  And if raspberry isn’t your thing, they also have Chocolate Coconut!

The Fruit and Chia bars are just as delicious!   Two varieties, Apple Cinnamon and Mango Twist.  We are big mango lovers in the house and those bars did not last long at all!  The ingredients in the Mango Twist bar are as follows: SunRype 100% fruit pieces (apple & mango & mangosteen puree concentrates, apple & pear & lemon juice concentrates, natural flavor, citrus pectin, apple fiber), brown rice syrup, gluten-free rolled oats, gluten-free oat flour, sunflower seeds, chia seeds, flax seeds, brown rice flour, unsweetened dried coconut (unsulfited), molasses, sunflower oil, sea salt. Does not contain peanut or gluten ingredients. Vegan.

They use the chia seed to bind everything together, and give you a little more substance than the sugary competition.  Personally I am glad to offer these delicious and nutritious snack bars to my family!  And I stand behind Sunrype as a company that seems to care more for its consumers than lining their pockets.
