Are Kind Bars A Healthy Snack?

What are the Nutrition Facts For KIND bars?

On the company’s official website, KIND describes their KIND bars as consisting of “whole ingredients like nuts, mixed with fruits and spices bound together with honey.”

KIND has trademarked the phrase “Ingredients You Can See and Pronounce,” and it adorns the wrapper of every bar. Generally speaking, the recipe for KIND bars adheres to this statement. The recipes largely consist of foods like nuts, dried fruit, honey, sea salt, rice flour and chia seeds.

KIND bars are certainly healthier than traditional junk food options like chips, candy bars, cookies, etc. However, the exact extent of their nutrition largely depends upon which variety you choose.

Do they live up to their health claims?

Kind Bars are without GMO ingredients, but the term “all natural” is a marketing trick that essentially means nothing. Companies and their products are held to a high standard when marking products “organic,” but any company can use the word “natural,” even if there’s nothing natural whatsoever about the product.

If you’re in a pinch or just eat them occasionally, Kind Bars aren’t so bad. Eating them every day should definitely be avoided, as there are far healthier snack options available (more on this in a moment).

The answer to this question is quite simple: real, whole foods. Ones that come from nature and do not come with an ingredient list.
