An excellent source of protein with low sugar content
I eat one regularly. An excellent source of protein with low sugar content, much less than most energy bars in the market. A recent concern has appeared with the new scientific (NATURE, Jan.2018) evidence showing a strong correlation between the use of TREHALOSA (a sugar supplement) in processed foods, and the emergence of a specially virulent and antibiotic resistant strain of C. difficile - a gut bacteria capable of producing severe illness and even potentially death- in the gut of those who consume food processed with this sugar. It would be appropriate for the manufacturer to make a statement or disclaimer regarding the presence (or not) of this sugar in these bars.

Better Tasting Than Candy
These are the best tasting Nut/Healthy/Granola Bar out there. As good or better than candy. That is because these bars are essentially wonderful things like high quality nuts, chocolate, salt, etc,, all "glued" together with a thin sugar coating. The only issue is price, and perhaps calories. But what are you going to do? The calories come with the nuts, and you do get some high quality healthy protein. Basically, if you are health conscious, just got your tax refund check, and want to treat yourself to something better than candy - these are your best bet.

Diabetics take note...amazingly satisfying and low glycemic so enjoy in moderation
If you are pre diabetic, diabetic, or just want to watch your sugar intake with an all natural product, you should check this out. Not all of their bars are low sugar...and i don't believe in sugar substitutes...but this one is. 1 bar has 15g of relatively healthy fats, 6g of protein, and 16g of carbs, with 7g from dietary fiber and only 5g of sugar for the entire bar. Sodium is a modest 125 mg. Now if you have nut allergies read no further. That being said, this bar is delicious and has a low glycemic index and a total of 200 calories. It is gluten free, non goo, and has no sugar alcohols. The taste is spectacular and for someone who has managed his A1C from 9.8 to 6.0 with diet alone and only modest exercise, take it from me that this is a treat. Just don't do more than one a day if you are managing your carbs/sugar. I mostly do dark chocolate and found two on amazon...highly rated and low sugar as well...that is my staple for dessert ... about 1/5th a bar or one run of tabs...but I am working this bar in on occasion and really like it.

I think this is the best snack bar I've ever had.
I dislike every snack/protein/granola bar I've ever tried, and I've tried a lot of them. They are either two sweet, taste weird, or end up upsetting my stomach. I've tried various flavors of KIND bars, too, and I didn't really like them. That is, until I received one of these dark chocolate nuts and sea salt KIND bars as a sample, and I have now gone through 4 boxes. Yes, FOUR boxes. The flavor is outstanding, the ingredients are clean, the carbs are low, it doesn't upset my GI tract, and it really curbs my hunger for several hours. Fantastic product.

My favorite bars
My favorite bars. I have a very sensitive stomach (I’m not gluten allergic or lactose intolerant or any of those other sensitivities). I just bloat really badly, get nauseous, go potty a few times or even throw up when I eat processed or fast food. They’re just not for me. But these bars. My lord, these bars. My absolute favorite & the only bars I can eat & not blow up or get a distended stomach or discomfort. Granted, I tend to eat too many at once & that however earns me time on the potty. Would definitely recommend for any sensitive stomach people out there. Be warned however, eating too much for too long might cloy you. At least it did me.

we loved them -- and ordered three more boxes
UPDATE, 4/18/2019: since this review appeared, I’ve ordered and enjoyed many more boxes of various varieties of this product without mishap or spoilage. The only change has been that I stopped buying any products containing nuts when a family member was diagnosed with serious peanut and tree nut allergy. (Though that family member doesn’t live with us, we maintain a safe environment out of an abundance of caution — always a good idea given the lethal potential of exposure.) So I’m changing my rating from two stars to five, since years have passed without difficulty. Old Review: The first time we tried these bars, we loved them -- and ordered three more boxes. Two of the three boxes (one a sampler of three flavors, the other Dark Chocolate Nuts and Sea Salt, my favorite) contained bars that were beyond stale: rancid, in fact. The Dark Chocolate bars smelled and tasted like paint; the others, like ancient sweepings from the co-op floor. This is a terrific product when it's fresh, but simply spit-'em-out-quick-awful when not. Oddly enough, both boxes were marked "Best before" a date one year after our purchase. Perhaps these boxes suffered horribly during storage and shipment; in any case, I plan to approach the company for replacements and will revise this review accordingly.

Tasty snack
I love chocolate - plain and simple. But I am trying to cut back on sugars, bad fats, salt. These make a nice snack - in moderation - because they are 200 calories in each 40g bar. Coincidentally, I just had one as my evening snack before I saw that I needed to write a review. They're a nice way to satisfy my sweet tooth (which is getting to be less each day) and enjoy at the end of my day.

Delicious bars with no grains and low sugar
These are delicious bars with only a few ingredients. I am not a fan of sweets or desserts but sometimes I need a quick snack that I can toss in my work bag and not worry about it getting smashed or forgetting about it. The dark chocolate and sea salt is a great combo not too sweet or salty, it is a great balance. I bought a box for me and then my wife and daughter found them haha. My daughter is super picky but likes these. Again few ingredients no chemicals or preservatives and no grains! These have no granola, rice or corn in them so for their size they have a lot of nutritional value 7g Fiber, 6g Protein but only 9 impact carbs and only 5g sugar. They seem high at 200 calories and 140 fat calories but these bars are 80%+ nuts so it is not a bad fat.

Works for me!
I will have to agree with all of the other reviews that say these things are DELICIOUS!!! Absolutely love these! I am on a restricted low FODMAP diet (medical reasons) and these fit the bill beautifully for a light snack. I used to love other big name "survival bars" but can no longer eat them due to some of the ingredients. These have become my new snack and addition to my various "go bags" and "EDC bags". I will say that I do wish there was some kind of "non-meltable", edible coating over the chocolate to prevent it from melting all over the inside of the package. Of note, if you have a requirement to follow a low FODMAP diet, you MUST do trial and error "testing" of foods to see what foods have a negative effect on you. Just because a food is okay for one FODMAP follower does not mean it will work on another. Everyone is different in what they can tolerate. Bottom line, TEST foods in small portions over several days (if able) before spending a lot of money buying a lot of any kind of food! If you can tolerate all of the ingredients in these bars, though, these are excellent!

Great new find! Not so sickly sweet, extra crunchy.
I love these bars! Not overly sweet, really crunchy. My dark secret: I put the mini coffee pot next to my bed. That's going superbly, why did I not do this years ago? The smell of brewing coffee verses bleeping alarm clock, hmmmm... Then I added this box of KIND bars to the nightstand - and my life is complete. Mornings are so great. Alarm clock in garbage. I sit up to the smell of coffee, munch on a half a bar while reading and drinking my lovely, soothing, awakening java, and still have an appetite for breakfast w/o feeling like I'm starving making it. These will be a regular Amazon order from now on. Have to get some of the other flavors, love the caramel also.
