ivan.bar Protein Packed Energy Snack Bar | Provides Healthy Energy | Vegan, All Natural Ingredients | Soy, Dairy & Gluten Free (PeanutButter/AlmondMacadamia/CoconutMacadamiaCombo, 1.4 Ounce (Pack of 24 Bars))

Very tasty, natural, healthy snack! Dairy free and grain free!

I only ate half a bar and it gave me a bad headache and the feeling of wanting to vomit for two days! My mom ate only 1/4 bar and made her sick as well! Avoid at all costs! Will be requesting a refund! Possibly a dangerous product!

I received the coconut almond macadamia flavor in 2.5oz to try. The details on this are 360 Calories, 24g Fat / 28g Carb (13g sugar / 8g fiber) / 9g protein. These macros are okay, but pretty high in fat. 216 of the 360 calories are from fat; that's 60%. This is a very calorie dense bar.This is essentially a true meal replacement bar, in this case, a meal that would be relatively high in fat. This is not a bar that should be used for general weightloss; of course your individual weightloss approach will determine if this will/won't work for you. Some uses I can think of for this bar are: meal replacement at work, fueling up before a very long hike, possibly as a preworkout meal (depending on energy needs).The company appears to use very high quality ingredients. For those who are concerned, this is a vegan and gluten-free product. The taste is pretty good, especially considering it's gluten free. I wouldn't say it's super delicious, but it's definitely not the worst meal bar I've ever had.However, this is listed as a "protein packed bar." I don't feel this is the case. 9g protein out of 360 calories is not good. 24g fat vs 9g protein, in this case, should be reversed. Would the taste suffer? Yes. But it is labeled as such. I feel this is somewhat misleading. If the company alters their listing to say something like "meal replacement bar" instead of "protein bar" I wouldn't ding them points. But due to this misleading nature, I feel a score of 3* is appropriate.

My main reason for taking a star off of my rating is because I haven't seen the nutrition facts/ingredients list posted anywhere on the product page- unless, I've missed it. The company's website has the nutrition facts and ingredients list available for their full-sized bars but not their mini- so this is all inconvenient when trying to determine what's best for your needs/preferences. I posted a picture of this info from the wrapper to hopefully help. I'm assuming if you have dietary needs/restrictions it's something you look into when shopping- and since everyone widely varies in what they can/can't have, my rating does not reflect the nutrition itself but just the issue of not finding nutrition easily accessible on here. And it also my personal opinion, as far as taste goes. The whole family agrees that it tastes pretty similar to Larabar's peanut butter bars. I'd say maybe the slightest bit less-sweet tasting, even though the sugar/dates are still there. The texture is also a bit more firm though still chewy...plus it has more seed texture. We're all liking the taste of it

These are very small bars for 180 calories. They taste pretty good though. They are a softer texture, but still provide a chew. They are not chalky at all. I did not get much peanut butter as they were a little more bland. You can taste the fruits and nuts which is most of the flavoring. Still pretty good but not something I would grab for often as they are very small for the macros I personally aim for.

The ivan.bar snack bar is a healthy and delicious treat that is just as good as the top protein bars found in stores or supermarkets.Pros:Made with whole-food ingredientsGood source of protein and fiberLow calorie count (190 calories per bar)Almond macadamia flavor is deliciousCons:High price (more than $1 per bar)

These Coconut Almond Macadamia ivan.bars are a wholesome and tasty snack for on the go. The ingredients were not listed above, but I found them on their website:Almonds, Coconut, Dates, Seed Blend (Chia Seeds, Pumpkin Seeds, Sesame Seeds, Flax Seeds, Sunflower Seeds), Gluten-Free Oats, Agave, Macadamia Nuts, Acacia Gum, Pea Protein, Pink Himalayan Salt, Natural Flavor, Mixed Tocopherols (Vitamin E as Antioxidant).Nutrition for the 1.4oz mini bar: 200 calories, 13g fat, 16g carbs, 5g fiber, 7g sugar, 5g protein.As you can see, it is made of high quality ingredients. It has a soft and chewy consistency and although small, is rather filling! I wish it had more than 5g of protein per serving. But overall, it is a balanced bar that is quick and easy to take on the go and very delicious!

So full disclosure I'm keto and I do eat these, but these are reserved for my carb cheat day that I occasionally have. At 20g net carbs they are too heavy for normal days. That being said the days I do eat them I enjoy them.Good ingredients, it's sweet but it's not as if you're eating a candy bar sweet, and the size isn't big but I like the 320 calories. I end up feeling like I actually ate something when I eat one of these.
