Finally a gluten-free nutrition bar that satisfies and tastes rich and chocolatey. I eat it for lunch on a busy day in between seeing patients and it keeps me going all afternoon. It's like a rich chewy brownie except I know it's good for me. This so far is my favorite nutrition bar made by anyone and my favorite flavor for this company. I also recommend the peanut butter one.

OK, I'm hooked on the Purefit Almond Crunch bar. There is nothing better with a cup of green tea before my morning run. These bars never melt and travel well. I keep a stash of bars in my car for after workouts and when my kids need a snack before sports. They like the Almond Crunch and the Peanut Butter too. A Purefit bar is better than any packaged kid snack you'll find in a grocery store.

These are definitely my favorite of the PureFit Nutrition Bars. I have a sweet tooth, and am not a big fan of nutrition bars, as they are usually bland at best. But the PureFit Chocolate Brownie bars actually have a reasonable approximation of the taste of chocolate brownies, while remaining nutritious. They also fill you up quite nicely. And, like chocolate brownies, they taste great with milk.

These are the most delicious high protein, gluten free bars I've ever tasted. They are great for a snack or a light meal, and are slightly addictive in a good way. All flavors are delicious, esp the peanut and almond... the chocolate is good enough to eat for dessert.

I got these bars a couple weeks ago, and since have had 3 of them. I will start with the Pros:
-they are great for a little snack before bed, or in the morning
-they have a good 18 grams of protein, are low glycemic and dairy/wheat/gluten free
-210 calories with 3 grams of fiber...not bad considering the amount of protein

but the CONS:
-i expected that a bar flavored "Granola Crunch" would; One, taste like granola instead of cardboard and sugar, and Two, would actually have some crunch. Right, am I wrong in expecting some actual crunchiness? But rather, i'd describe the texture as a fine melange of cardboard, soy protein and low glycemic sugar.
-The protein source is 100% soy...not the best amino acid profile, but that doesnt concern me thaaaaat much.
-The bars taste like cardboard and have as much crunch as a banana
-Did I mention you could find more crunch and flavor in pile of mashed potatoes?

Now, dont get me wrong, I LOVE PureFit...but I expected sooooo much more than this. PureFit makes GREAT products, and i buy their other bars all summer long for when I am walking around the golf course or leaving the gym...BUT this is not one of them.

If you want a great a great bar, try PureFit's Berry Almond protein bar, or their peanut butter crunch...those are STARS....

But from a man who has made tons of his own bars, and tried a crap ton more from basically every company....Stay with PureFit. They are the healthiest bar on the market, except that they arent organic, just try their other bars, and you wont be disappointed.

I highly recommend these protein bars to anyone that needs a quality bar for snack. I have tried so many varieties and this is the best bar I have had. I like the fact that there is no "fake" chocolate on the outside. The texture is enjoyable and the bar is filling.

I have no problems with wheat or anything else. I got these bars simply because I felt they were a healthy snack to incorporate into my diet. Well in terms of taste I'd say they are really good. Granted you have to understand when I say really good, I mean considering the type of bars that they are. They did taste similar to store brought ready to eat brownies. So I'd wouldn't hesitate to recommend these to anyone who needs to avoid gluten, or just wants a healthy eating alternative.

I love PureFit Bars ever since I tried them at the expo before the Carlsbad Marathon in January 2009. PB is my favorite. This Granola Crunch is now my second favorite! It is hard to find in a store near me so I was glad to find it for a good price on Amazon. Now I don't have to worry about running out anytime soon.

It has a 40/30/30 formulation. The 2 oz bar is a bit high calorie at 210 calories but sometimes I break it into two servings. It has 6g fat, 1 saturated, no trans, no cholesterol, 180mg sodium, 90mg potassium, 25g carbs, 3g fiber, 13g sugar and 18g protein. It is kosher certified, vegan, non dairy, no gluten, no sugar alcohols, no GMO soy, low glycemic, no wheat, but it is manufactured in a facility that processes milk, eggs and dairy.

Hope that helps!

These bars are tasty, nicely balanced with protein and carbs and they don't melt. I keep them in my glove box in my car for times when I am in a rush and don't have time to grab something at home. Being Gluten intolerant makes snacking on the run a challenge. These are perfect. The chocolate also makes a great after workout food combined with a cup of good coffee!

This is my favorite bar I've tried. Great texture, good flavor and they do not melt in the car or gym bag. They make a great breakfast with a bit of almond butter spread on top.
