Review of 'Clif Bar' Crunch Granola Bar (Peanut Butter Flavour)

Clif Bar -- Crunch Granola Bar (Peanut Butter Flavour) (not vegan--honey)
Overall Rating: 5/5
Summary: suuuper delicious...one of my favourite bars. It's very sweet--just how I like it :) It's very light and crunchy and a wee bit messy, so be prepared. I normally opt for chewy bars, simply because I find them tastier (and less mess), but man oh man am I converted. It's very peanut buttery...and I love my nut butters. I highly recommend this bar, but it does contains honey and so it not vegan. Also, I just really like the Clif Bar brand. If you visit the website, you'll find a wealth of information about each product line--a very transparent Company.

I don't think I've rated very many products a perfect 5/5...I rated this one because the ingredients are all organic, the calories are totally worth the yummy-ness and nutrition. It's high in healthy fats (non-saturated), not too high on sodium, has a good amount of fiber and protein for a snack bar AND holy hannah is it super sweet, super satisfying. If you're a peanut butter lover, please give this a try.

This product...I will consider a sweet treat, not on my regular grocery list--simply because I try to keep my maintain a low sugar intake and this would impact my 'sugar budget' for the week.
