RxBar Protein Bars: The Real Food Goodness

The simple "real food" ingredient lists on this nutritious snack food brand are a truly welcome sight named RxBar Protein Bar. We found the flavors to be pleasant and true to title, loved that they didn't use any added sugars / sweeteners, and thought that each weighty RxBar Protein Bar was quite filling without packing in unwanted calories. But the taste plus texture did become a little thick and unctuous at times, which I find can happen with egg white powder.

Though relatively hefty, each flavor contains just 6 or 7 ingredients that are almost too easy to read: dates, egg whites, almonds, figs, and dried fruit, nut butter, coffee or chocolate – depending on the flavor.

Each RxBar Protein Bar houses the equivalent of 3 egg whites, 1/2 fig, 2 dates, and 8 almonds or peanuts. We split one of each flavor to taste the whole range:

Coconut Chocolate – Pleasant mellow cacao flavor that isn’t too sweet and has just subtle coconut notes. It’s very chewy, almost like a Tootsie Roll vibe!

Chocolate Sea Salt – Still on the chewy side but much softer than the Coconut Chocolate (or any of the flavors) with a touch more sweetness and some serious intensity.

Mint Chocolate – Perhaps my favorite flavor, this one was just a touch softer than the cacao flavors, but not as tender as the Chocolate Sea Salt. Generous dots of mint throughout added sweet interest.

Coffee Chocolate – By the name I was expecting more of a mocha taste, but my taste buds said straight up coffee. This herbal tea lover wasn’t a fan, but if you love the bean, give it a go. It’s a very chewy bar, like the Coconut Chocolate.

Overall, I loved the ingredient list of RxBar Protein Bar, much like ones I make at home, and found the flavors to be pleasant and not too sweet. I also thought these RxBar Protein Bars were a good nutritional value, providing both energy and satiety.
