Recently I received a box full of
goodies to review for Vitacost. Since the representative couldn’t tell me
exactly what products I might receive, I was pleasantly surprised with my box.
It was a mixed lot comprised mainly of health and beauty products and health
and nutrition bars and supplements.
Today I want to share my thoughts
on the bars I received and a little bit about Vitacost the company.

These bars are like a cinnamon-y rice crispy treat, only
better. They are not icky sweet, and have 13 grams of protein and 140 calories.
Both my daughters loved this one, so I will buy again.

Their tag line says it all for me. They really are the best tasting,
healthy snack bars we’ve had in a long time. KIND bars are all natural with
ingredients you can pronounce.
We received 3 KIND bars: Almond and Coconut, Dark Chocolate & Cherry
Cashew, and Cranberry Almond. Each bar had its own unique quality and taste but
the one I would buy over and over again? The Almond & Coconut! It’s like a not so good for you candy bar
(think Payday) gone healthy. I am hooked and will buy again!

I wanted to love this
totally organic, healthy sounding, delicious smelling bar, but I
didn’t. I just liked it.
I could taste the dates and Agave nectar more than I
could pick up on the blueberries. My
daughter and my husband on the other hand LOVED this bar and wanted more, so I
will buy again.
This bar is made with raw and
super foods, one of them being Hemp.
Again I wanted to love this bar.
It looks like dark chocolate and smells
like Mocha. Win-Win for me.
But, I did
not like this bar at all. It is thick and dense. It leaves a vitamin taste in
your mouth. And I experienced a mild case of burps in which I could taste the
Hemp, or what I perceived to be the Hemp, I likened it to eating grass
clippings. My family didn’t care for the taste or texture of this bar either,
so we won’t buy again.

This is a huge protein bar, so you could
split it. It has 28 grams of whey protein. Overall, I liked the flavor and
consistency of this bar, but my husband liked it more. My kids thought it was
just okay. If we bought again, it would be for keeping in the car for road
trips or when hunger strikes and you can’t stop and eat.
I hope you have found these reviews
helpful. I will have another Vitacost review for you soon where I will share
the rest of the products included in my Vitacost box.

I love Vitacost and have shopped there already a couple of times. These bars all sound delicious!
Thanks so much for this overview of the protein and nutrition bars from Vitacost! I am actually in the process of trying out and getting ready to review a lot of different types of protein bars on my blog at my-second-chances.blogspot.com, so it was especially interesting to me. It was interesting to see how the different people in your family felt about each one.
Just had a talk with one of the Moms from my play group about Kind bars---she was raving about them too!!!
Just talked with a Mom from playgroup about Kind Bars--she LOVED them!!!
Love VitaCost! I purchase many of my beauty products there. Those are some great options for health bars!
I really like the promax rice treat bar too-although it had a lot of cinnamon flavoring!
I really like these treat bars that give an extra boost of energy
This is one cool store!
Hi Anna,
I am really liking Vitacost too. They have a great variety of products.
Most all of these bars are very tasty.
Thanks for stopping by!
Hi Tara,
I am happy you found my review helpful.
I like to get the whole family involved with my reviews whenever possible so that I can share a broader scope of opinions.
Have fun reviewing your bars and thanks for commenting.
Hi Reviews she Rote,
Love your name first of all. And trust us, these KINDS bars are so very rave worthy!
Try em, you will see.
Have a great weekend.
Hi Ashley,
I'm with you on loving Vitacost for the beauty supplies. When I learned they carried Kiss My Face and other natural brands at lower prices, I was doing a happy dance.
I hope you get to try some of the health bars listed, they really are good.
Happy Friday!
Hi Heidi,
I agree, when Promax said cinnamon flavored on this bar they meant it.
We like cinnamon here, so it was all good.
Have a great weekend!
Hi Angie,
The KIND bars and Promax bars really will perk you up.
Thanks for stopping by!
Hi Tara,
Yep, I'm loving Vitacost too and am happy to share that love with my readers.
Thanks for stopping by!
We are devoted Kind bar fans here! We all love them!
Sounds great - I wish they would have replied to my request. Great post!!
I love, love, LOVE bars! Snack bars are my favorite to discover and eat because they're just so yummy and convenient; you just throw them in your bag and you're good to go ^.^
It's funny because I JUST ate a Kind bar my mom and I picked up yesterday. Delicious!
Sounds like you got quite the variety :)
I have tried almost all of those bars, and I have to agree, the KIND bars are the best!
Those all sound good. I wonder if I'd have the same reaction the the chocolate one as you did though. I don't like things with weird texture! Good review of your products!
I have a feeling I would like those Blueberry ones the best--I don't eat snack bars all that often but always have at least one box in the house just in case--will definitely look into these!!
Hi Mommy had a little blog,
I am so glad I got the opportunity to review all these bars, but the KIND bars are our favorites too.
Have a great weekend.
Hi Jamie,
Thank you so much for your supportive comment, I appreciate the feedback.
I bet you will hear from a Vitacost Rep. soon.
Have a great day!
Hi Kayla,
I was pleased with the variety of bars Vitacost sent me.
We love our bars around here too, so they were enthusiastically eaten.
Oh my goodness, KIND bars are it for me too!
Thanks for visiting.
Hi Alaina,
We will be buying KIND bars here forever thanks to Vitacost sending them to me for this review.
We LOVE them as well.
Have a great weekend!
Hi Christy,
Thank you for your positive feedback!
I would suggest you pass on the 22 days bar then, because the texture was off putting to me and I usually don't have a problem with bars.
Have a great weekend!
Hi Michele,
Please give the Pure Blueberry bar a try. My family could not believe this one wasn't a favorite of mine; they all loved it and want more.
Thanks for stopping by!
I liked the kind bars. It kept me full and they were decent tasting! lol
I wish we have this here.
Hi Maria,
Yes, the KIND bars will keep you full.
Happy Monday!
Hi Mitchelle,
Sorry you can't get these bars in Thailand.
Thanks for stopping by.
my kids like Kind bars. The vitacoast looks like a great program to try healthy new foods.
