Product Review: PURE Cherry Cashew Bar

A month or so ago, I tried the PURE Chocolate Brownie Bar.  I wrote a review here.  This time I tried the the Cherry Cashew version.  I was super impressed!!  I got a picture of the wrapper this AM, but had eaten it yesterday on our trip back while it was still dark out, so no picture of the bar itself.  The flavor & chunks in this bar are amazing!  I like these much better than the Cherry Pie Lara Bars.  Now, I am not dissing my Lara Bars, because they do hold a special place in my heart (especially that chocolate coffee flavor & the peanut butter cookie, too). 

The Cherry Cashew bar is organic,raw, vegan, has 1.5 servings of fruit, omega-3s, 4 grams of fiber & 6 grams of protein per bar.  What a bang for your buck (or $2, depending on where you get them)!!  I like to keep these on hand for emergency situations……no safe food or healthy choices (while Frito’s & Snicker’s are both gluten-free, they don’t qualify as healthy choices for emergency snacks or meal replacements).  Obviously this bar would not hold me over for more than 2-3 hours, but it will do the trick in a pinch.  What I did yesterday was I ate a banana at 5:30 AM or so, then I opened the bar around 7:30 or so and then did lunch around 11:30 AM.  I could have probably eaten lunch sooner, but being on the road for 12 hours and having to find a place to stop & use the restroom didn’t allow for it. 

I highly recommend this bar and can’t wait to try more PURE Bar flavors.  Maybe the PURE Bar people want to send me some samples to review (hint, hint). 😉  LOL!
