Welcome to Day #9 of Chocolate and Honey Theme Week.
Refrigerated protein and energy bars with honey seem to be enjoying a surge in popularity this year. Today's Wella Bar Hazelnut Cacao Chilled Organic Protein Bar was distributed by Lockhart Fine Foods (Lockhart, TX).
The company produces a line of chilled, honey-sweetened, protein bars, including some with chocolate—mixed with nuts/nut butters.The number one ingredient in this gluten-free bar was organic hazelnut butter (dry roasted hazelnuts, cashew butter, sunflower oil, coconut oil). The number two ingredient was organic honey.
And, speaking of honey, the Wella Bar website included information about bees and the Bee Kind Initiative, and included the reminder that 1 out of 3 bites of our food is linked to the pollination work that bees do for us.
The bar contained 8 grams of protein, and was relatively low in sodium (20 mg).
