New Strong & KIND Bars Are Kind of Strong, Definitely Delicious

Processed foods are filled with junk, which has left snacking on the go a sacrifice of your health. KIND snack bars have long been my go to due to the 100% all natural ingredients consisting of heart-healthy nuts, whole grains, fruit, and/or antioxidant-rich dark chocolate. But there is still one ingredient missing from most KIND bars that tops my list as far as essential nutrients go as a guy: protein.

New Strong & KIND bars are packed with ten grams of protein per bar, yet somehow amazingly remain dairy and soy free – both of which aren’t exactly the friendliest ingredients for you to be consuming. Strong & KIND bars achieve this through, get this, pea protein. All those times your momma told you to eat your peas, this is why: they’re excellent sources of high-quality protein.

As you could imagine, the pea protein is the main reason that these Strong & KIND bars come in savory flavors like Honey Mustard and Roasted Jalapeño, and not the sweeter, fruity or chocolate concoctions you may recognize the brand for. Being a fan of KIND myself, I was taken aback by the salty, savory taste, even despite clearly reading the flavor on the label. The unexpectedly “strong” savory flavor made for a more satisfying, meal-like snack.

Strong & KIND’s pea protein is non-GMO, and the rest of the ingredients include almonds, pumpkin, and hemp seeds for dose of healthy fats. Beyond being 100% whole ingredients, they’re 100% something I’ll be stocking my travel bag with for the next big Music festival, and I’ll keep a stash in my office, too.
