WHAT ARE THEY?

We’ve all had a health bar at some point in our lives. They’re sweet and we usually opt for the chocolate flavour, am I right? But have you ever tasted a savoury bar? Not likely. I know I haven’t until I tried Journey Bars.

Journey bars are all natural, gluten free, vegan, soy free, and gmo free made with whole grain blend, organic tapioca syrup, almonds, and a few other things, depending on the flavour. 

Yum, it is like eating seasoned bread but compressed in a way that tastes like a savoury Nutrigrain bar. Some spices make a satisfying chew as they stick momentarily to your teeth, but not in the annoying fashion of bubblegum. There are currently three flavours:

Rosemary(my favourite),

Sesame a ginger,

and Sea salt.

They have approximately 200 calories, and 23-25g of carbs, and 10 grams of fat(1g saturated). Now, wait a minute, you’re thinking: that’s nearly 100 calories from fat, which is half the bar! Luckily, most of this healthy unsaturated fat keeps you full and satisfied. Just don’t go overboard. 

The sodium is a little high. (12%) per bar. Sugars 7 grams(sweetened with organic Tapioca Syrup), which I do have to commend them for,l because the typical energy bar packs anywhere from 10-25 grams of sugar as opposed to their 7 grams! Still, I would suggest the use of Stevia to even lower the sugar content because, in a SAVOURY bar, I never expected more than 3 grams of sugar, if any at all!

The Virtue?
3/10 on the HF scale (if you are not familiar with the HF rating system, please click on link provided).

I like the creativity of these bars, and I like that they made everything with natural ingredients, but I would only buy Journey bars on the rare occasion because I tend to look for low carb snacks, but these aren’t too shabby to have once in a while. I would eat these babies any day over most high sugar energy bars. Another plus, is that these are ALL NATURAL. It took me a while to accept this as I picked up my thinking glasses and scrutinized the ingredient list, but there’s no denying it—they are made with all natural ingredients.

Bottom line, try them. You’ll never encounter savoury bars like Journey Bar. Who knows? Perhaps you’ll be so convinced to switch over from your previous energy bar brand!
