Welcome to Day #8 of Chocolate and Surprise Theme Week.
You might be surprised to read that chocolate and vegetable combinations are quite edible.
Today's Kale Yeah! Raw Energy Bar was made by Stone Grindz Chocolate (Scottsdale, AZ). Their raw energy bars are quite different than most chocolate-coated candy or energy bars.
First, Stone Grindz raw energy bars (available via a Secret Store pull down option on the company's website) taste fresher and less processed than most bars. Second they have no added sugar and salt (none, thank you!).
These organic bars are blended so that they taste and feel well balanced. The ingredients harmonize nicely; no one flavor dominates.
While dates are the first ingredient listed, they're not overwhelming. The kale (which I venture to wager you could not identify in a blind taste test) and pumpkin seeds help balance out the date sweetness.
Cacao nibs add flavor depth, but are not the primary attraction.
The bars have a soft chew and uniform flavor and tasting experience. You might find a stray chia seed in your mouth following the tasting experience, but the seeds were not too intrusive.
