Review of 'Clif Bar' Crunchy Peanut Butter

Clif Bar -- Crunchy Peanut Butter (vegan)
Overall Rating: 4.5/5
Summary: I think this is my favourite Clif Bar flavour so far, being a peanut fan and all. It has a strong peanut butter smell and is equally peanut buttery in flavour. It's medium sweet but the deep flavour makes for a perfect bite each time. It's very rich! There are bits of nuts, but I could have used some more. I really enjoyed the sweet and salty, savoury taste. It's nicely soft and tender like most clif bars. This is highly recommended.

Where to buy: Bulk Barn, Fortinos, Shopper's Drug Mart

Given that I haven't had a solid workout in about 3 weeks, I don't really deserve a Clif Bar. I mean, I can't really justify a 250 calorie, 10g protein bar with such an inactive period as this...so I'm just gonna call it a 'treat' and be done with it. It was delicious!
