Welcome to Day #6 of Chocolate and Banana Theme Week.
Today's Chocolate Banana bar was manufactured for NuGo Nutrition (Oakmont, PA). "NuGo" is short for "Nutrition To Go."
This chocolate-drizzled banana nutrition bar had a crispy, chewy texture (think crisped rice bar meets protein bar), and contained 15 grams of protein (from soy protein isolate). The bar also had added vitamins and minerals, and a faint somewhat artificial flavor. (It was hard to tell if this was a product of the soy protein, the vitamins and/or the banana flavor.)
The NuGo Chocolate Banana bar was labeled as Gluten Free and Non-GMO (they don't source ingredients with GM ingredients).
