🍋 Food Review with the H.E.A.R.T. Exam: Good! Snacks Lemon Protein Bar
🩺 H = Health Check
Let’s check those vitals! This little bar boasts 15g of protein (👏 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). 🚑
⚠️ Allergy note: it’s processed in a facility with peanuts, tree nuts, soy, milk, fish, wheat, and sesame. But per FDA rules, “certified gluten free” means it passed testing. Diagnosis? I ate it and lived to tell the tale—no symptoms here.
😋 E = Eating Experience
First bite = lemon zing! 🍋 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 couldn’t taste either. No chalky aftertaste (praise be 🙌). Only downside? If your hands are warm, that icing might stick like medical tape to your fingers.
💸 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.
❤️ R = Rating
Solid sinus rhythm ✅ Not my all-time favorite, but tasty enough that I’d eat it again.
👩👩👧 T = Tell a Friend
Already texted my mom (she loves lemon 🍋). I also grabbed the birthday cake flavor for a future review. Stay tuned!
