Keto meal replacements and bars are starting to pop up left and right now that the keto diet has started becoming a bit more mainstream. Some are better than others. Some are healthier than others. It just depends on what you are looking to stay away from.
I was sent a sampler pack of KETO BARS to review and I have to say I was pleasantly surprised. The company itself has a great start with the founder, Jon, having a hard time finding the right high fat low carb product that he needed. He decided to make them himself with less chemicals and ACTUALLY low carb. They are a small business that I would love to be able to support and help them grow because they truly do have a good product.
Currently they have 2 different flavors, Dark Chocolate Coconut and Chocolate Peanut Butter. They only have around 10-11 ingredients and they can all be pronounced and you know why they are in there. They range from 18-20 grams of fat per bar as well as only 2-3 net carbs per bar. The sweetener they use is erythritol as well some stevia at the very end of the ingredient list. The nice thing is that the protein is fairly low around 7 grams, which is usually the opposite in other low carb bars. They are usually low in fat and extremely high in protein. Which isn’t bad but sometimes it is not what you want to have.
I tried both of them and I do think they are really good. You can taste how simple the ingredients are and the bars themselves are a nice texture. They are mainly a coconut base but it doesn’t taste like coconut that much. I do find that if you are not a fan of very dark chocolate, it can come off a bit bitter. But I like dark chocolate a lot and I love chocolate and peanut butter together. The reason that I like that they are not overtly cloyingly sweet is because then you don’t want to sit and eat 5 in a sitting. The Chocolate Peanut Butter one is a little bit more bitter than the Dark Chocolate Coconut bar.
They serve their purpose. They are a sweet treat for a moment, they are healthy, high in fat, and really low in net carbs. I would definitely purchase these again in the future and really do look forward to seeing what new flavors they come up with! They are about the same prices as other low carb bars around $2.20 a piece.
