I was impressed that this bar contained dates unlike the others I tried which had me smiling. With cinnamon, walnuts, almond butter and apples, this bar is the perfect snack for a fall afternoon or on a hike through the park. I would suggest maybe microwaving it a little bit and maybe it will resemble apple pie! I haven’t tried it but it sounds delicious. This almost tied with the Protein Pleasure in satisfaction because of the chunks of walnuts and apples I could taste throughout the bar. The last bar I tried was the Morning Harvest. Super peanut butter-y and a whole lot of flavor and chewiness. Another reason why GoMacro really tries to benefit the community they’re serving. I appreciated the fact the chocolate chips in this bar are Fair Trade. This one tasted exactly like peanut butter chocolate chip cookie dough and due to its texture, I even rolled it up into a bite-sized cookie ball. The bars contain a hefty amount of sugar and fat but for the ingredients, they’re a good bar pre-workout. The Protein Pleasure was the first one I opened (primarily because it is peanut butter and chocolate chips… how could I resist it?) and I ate half right away while saving the other half for a later snack. The Protein Pleasure and Morning Harvest. Onto the other two bars I tried that I actually REALLY enjoyed. The ingredient everyone should know and love. All of these ingredients made me so happy! Hopefully GoMacro will be able to dump the brown rice syrup in the near future and just opt for more coconut sugar. This bar contains cashew butter, sprouted brown rice protein (for those vegans out there), cashews, coconut sugar (low-glycemic index which makes your body thank you), coconut oil and more. If the first ingredient in a product is sugar then how healthy can it really be? This bar highlighted the brown rice syrup due to the caramel flavor.īut in defense, every other ingredient is a winner in my eyes. The only problem I have with these bars is that the first ingredient is brown rice syrup (commonly known to people as none other than sugar). Maybe I wasn’t a fan because of the similarity to caramel (I’m not a fan of caramel) or the fact it tasted exactly like a Tootsie Roll which threw me off. Because of this, I was dissatisfied with the Protein Paradise. I want to taste the real ingredients inside of the bar and not just artificial sugars and pastes. If and when I eat protein bars, I want them to have a ton of flavor and chunkiness. In order of best to worst I would go with the Protein Pleasure giving me the most satisfaction and the Protein Paradise taking me “away from paradise” you could say. The bars I sampled were Protein Paradise, Morning Harvest and Protein Pleasure. Thankfully, I received a small package of a few of their bars to taste-test and sample. Through these factors, I was instantly curious to try their products. GoMacro focuses on living a sustainable life by consuming wholesome food, eating local, organic and plant-based when possible and giving back to their community. While aiming to affect the world positively, their products are USDA Organic, Certified Vegan and Gluten-Free. Through some product research on vegan bars with ingredients I can recognize (and pronounce), I found the company GoMacro. Sure, most companies include some extra grams of protein into their bars but that doesn’t mean they’re always helping out your body. I’ve never been a huge bar person for the sole purpose they’re usually just “nutritious” candy bars with not a ton of good-for-you ingredients but a ton of ingredients similar to a candy bar.
