LUNA came out with a few new flavors in their protein line, one being LUNA Protein Chocolate Coconut Almond
and I was gracious enough to receive a sample of both to put to the test. I typically have protein bars whenever I’m in
the mood for either a snack (but a higher protein snack) or if I need something
quick after a workout. One of the good things with these bars, is that each
LUNA bar is gluten free, has 12 grams of protein and has 4 core vitamins: folic
acid, calcium, vitamin d and iron.
The bars themselves have a nice and noticeable coconut and
almond flavor. I find with each bite one flavor (alternating between the two) becomes
more prominent over the other. There are decent chunks of almonds throughout
the bar. The chocolate coating gives it a bit of a healthier candy bar vibe. If
you closed your eyes you might be able to trick yourself into thinking it was a
healthier alternative on an Almond Joy. I will say, this does have a mild
protein bar aftertaste, but it’s honestly not that bad nor is it as
overwhelming as some of the other protein bars I have tried. The flavor didn’t
linger – it was noticeable as I was almost done chewing and the overall
aftertaste went away shortly after eating it.
A bar is 180 calories or 5 points plus values.
