Review of 'KIND Healthy Snacks' Fruit and Nut Delight

KIND Healthy Snacks -- Fruit and Nut Delight (gluten-free, non-vegan [contains honey])
Overall Rating: 4/5
Summary: alright, this is very nice. The bar is tart and sweet and well-balanced. It's both crunchy (because of the freshness of the nuts), chewy and very fresh. I'm recommending this. It makes for a wholesome and filling snack. What's more, it's a very good brand in terms of social responsibility. Check out the brand info below.

Where to buy: Bulk Barn, Pharma Plus

Ingredients: Mixed nuts (peanuts, almonds, brazil nuts, walnuts), honey, dried fruit (sultanas, dates, raisins), non GMO glucose, crisp rice, apricots, apple juice, vegetable glycerine, flax seeds, soy lecithin, chicory root fiber, citrus pectin, natural apricot flavor.

Fantastic ingredients = no worries. I have no issue with any ingredient. They are wholesome, simple, and have no artificial components. The nutritional profile is also very good, with a solid 6g of protein and 3g of fiber, no cholesterol, and low sodium. Don't be afraid of the fat content, as it is low in saturated fat and higher in good fats (mono and poly unsaturated).
