NuGo Organic Dark Chocolate Almond, 10g Vegan Protein, Gluten Free, 12 Count

these bars are excellent. We like the chocolate chocolate chip and the chocolate coconut.

These are really good bars. A little bit of a neutral taste that one can expect with good ingredients. I did find them to be filling and and easy to want to purchase again. I was super impressed with the packaging; arrived in their own box, with dry ice to prevent melting. Obvious level of care by the shipper.

I love these bars - I buy them at Whole Foods for 50% more. I looked them up here on Amazon and I saw the reviews weren't great. I was trying to figure out why. Some people said the expiration date was almost up. Others said that the chocolate had a white film. I noted the the price was less the the other equivalent bars - so I just ordered one pack to see if the issues had been fixed. I just received my box of 12. The expiration date was a year from now. And the box arrived in a cooler with ice packs around it. I know when chocolate is put in the fridge or freezer it gets a white or grayish film. It doesn't affect the taste, but it doesn't look as palatable. I wonder if the cooler caused some of the chocolate to get that whitish look? In the order I just recieved the chocolate was perfect - but I wonder if that is why some people had that complaint. So for my order - the bars were in perfect condition! At the time I purchased the bars and wrote this review, the price is much cheaper compared to the other equivalent NuGo bars - so I am going to stock up. I love these bars! They taste great, quench my chocolate cravings, have 10 grams of protein, and are organic. And at 50% cheaper than Whole Foods, I am going to buy 10 boxes! I hope this is helpful to you!

I have tried these protein bars several times from the grocery store before purchasing, and they have always been delicious and dark brown on the outside. When I opened these they were a chalky-whitish brown on the outside and tasted very bad. My guess is they were stored too long or under improper conditions and became dehydrated. I usually don't leave reviews, but I really feel I need to warn people. Buying these on Amazon is terrible...buy them at the store instead!

I don't agree at all with reviewer Persianemu. These are the greatest health bars ever invented. First of all, if you like almonds and dark chocolate, then these bars are absolutely delicious. Second, these bars don't have any more sugar than the limit recommended for a health snack (<15). Third, they will stave off hunger for hours because they are made from brown rice and almonds, a great combo of complex carbs and protein. And they are good for your heart because they are made with the darkest chocolate possible. In fact, I'd prefer their being less healthy with milk chocolate, as I'm not a big fan of dark chocolate. But the combination of ingredients is well balanced so the dark chocolate flavor doesn't overpower the other flavors despite it having the darkest chocolate possible. Finally, the company owners and employees are extremely friendly. I used to buy directly from nugo.com, which can at times be cheaper than Amazon. Unfortunately, these bars are so popular that they go out of stock quickly. Once I complained to the company about their changing the dark chocolate content to make it darker, and I received free samples of other flavors. All in all, this product is a recommended must buy.

My only complaint echoes something noted by an earlier commenter: the texture is a bit odd... not crispy/flakey/crunchy like we expect from something so sweet and tasty. I think this is the way it is in order to add fiber (a very, very good thing!); I have yet to see a high-protein / medium-to-high-fiber have a delectable crunchy texture. But I love everything else about this bar, in particular: - It's filling! Surprisingly so for its relatively light 180 calories. I feel just as satisfied eating this as I do, say, a Snickers bar, which has 55% more calories and a hell of a lot of more "evil" things in it. It's the perfect quick breakfast (especially paired with a piece of fruit or bit of oatmeal) or a fab dessert at the end of a lunch or dinner. Or a snack 30 minutes before a workout at the gym. Or a treat after workout. This is truly an "anytime" bar! :) - The chocolate tastes like, well, real chocolate! I know that may sound silly, but this is literally the first energy / health bar I've had that doesn't taste merely "chocolate-like" or, worse yet, a cross between "chocolate aroma and medicinal taste." In short... yum! Without the guilt!

They are delish...probably too much sugar for me but they are delicious 😋.

I doubtfully bought this product because I thought it might be a “healthy “ bland tasting Product. Absolutely not!! Definitely a great value for the money. Rich dark chocolate with the ground nuts.. NO shortcuts here! Very substantial size and thickness, REAL dark chocolate, and tasty filling. Belongs in the gourmet aisle!

While I agree with some other reviews that indicated a grayish look and lack of freshness I still gave this product a good review. I simply stick mine in the micro wave for 5 seconds. Yummy. Make sure to take the product out of the wrapper before micro. Lol

They were expired

They arrived very stale
