When it comes to consuming food and beverages I am a blessed individual. Many suffer from allergies or have adverse reactions to particular things but I can eat pretty much anything and keep rolling along. The only things I do not really like are celery and sea urchin, but I won't suffer from eating them, I just can't stand the taste and consistency.
Others have to pay particular attention to what they eat or suffer various consequences. The folks at PureFit sent us some energy bars to test. The bars might be appealing to those that do need to watch what they eat as they are wheat, dairy and gluten free, low glycemic, and vegan.
As far as consistency and texture the bars are pretty equivalent to a standard PowerBar. I would be lying if I wrote that I could tell the difference between the actual impact of one nutrition bar over the other, but these bars are less sweet than many other bars I have tried which I liked. Like most bars of this variety they are dense and chewy and thus a healthy serving of water should be on hand when consuming one.
If you have nutrition/energy bar thoughts/comments/opinions feel free to chime in with comments. And if you work for a food or beverage company, my gullet is open for testing so feel free to contact us for testing.
