๐ Food Review with the H.E.A.R.T. Exam: Good! Snacks Lemon Protein Bar
๐ฉบ H = Health Check
Letโs check those vitals! This little bar boasts 15g of protein (๐ respectable), is certified gluten-free & vegan, and soy-free too. On the back label: 230 calories, 9g fat, 190mg sodium, 28g carbs, and even a smidge of iron (6% daily value). ๐
โ ๏ธ Allergy note: itโs processed in a facility with peanuts, tree nuts, soy, milk, fish, wheat, and sesame. But per FDA rules, โcertified gluten freeโ means it passed testing. Diagnosis? I ate it and lived to tell the taleโno symptoms here.
๐ E = Eating Experience
First bite = lemon zing! ๐ The bar has a sweet coating (like icing) where the lemon flavor lives. The inside is soft, made with fava bean + brown rice protein, but honestly, I couldnโt taste either. No chalky aftertaste (praise be ๐). Only downside? If your hands are warm, that icing might stick like medical tape to your fingers.
๐ธ A = Accessibility
Found mine at Jewel-Osco for $2.99. Protein bar prices are all over the board, and gluten-free certification means extra testing = extra $$ (thanks science). Still, for under $3, not too shabby.
โค๏ธ R = Rating
Solid sinus rhythm โ
Not my all-time favorite, but tasty enough that Iโd eat it again.

Already texted my mom (she loves lemon ๐). I also grabbed the birthday cake flavor for a future review. Stay tuned!
