Granola Gourmet Bars

I reviewed Granola Gourmet before and the full review can be read here. But here's a recap about the company...

Granola Gourmet was founded when one of the owners was diagnosed with Diabetes and was looking for a tasty snack that didn't cause a spike in blood sugar. The ingredients in Granola Gourmet bars are chosen based off their glycemic index and choosing ingredients with a low glycemic impact.  They are designed to satisfy one’s sweet tooth, without the use of refined sugar or the fat and sodium content of other popular protein and energy bars.

The last time I tried these they came in little plastic containers but now they are individually wrapped bars. Much easier for an on-the-go snack. I tried the Ultimate Mocha Fudge and thought the bar was pretty good. I wish I would have seen the note on the website before I ate it that you can warm them up in the microwave...I think that would have added to the bar. Anyway, for 150 calories, there is a lot of healthy omega 3 fats packed into it. This bar had 6g fat, 3g fiber and 5g protein. The ingredient list is also pretty short when compared to other energy bars and you can pronounce all the ingredients!! Gotta love that. For those of you who have a wheat or dairy allergry, these bars contain no wheat or dairy and are vegan.

While trying to price up the individually priced bars, there was a little confusion as to what is sold on line from Granola Gourmet. Turns out the individually wrapped bars can not be purchased through their site but can be found at Amazon and some other retailers around the country. A 10 pack of bars from Amazon will cost you $14.46. While these bars are a good healthy choice for anyone, I based my last review on the fact that they are a great choice for diabetics. As to whether or not I would purchase, I'm not sure I would. I sometimes get creative in the kitchen making my own bars and there are others out there which I prefer a little more. So I'm giving Granola Gourmet 6 biscuits.
