Special K Chocolate Coconut Cashew Bar
January 30, 2017
Today I decided to try the Special K Nourish® Chewy Nut Bar. I grabbed the new Chocolate Coconut Cashew flavor.
First and foremost, this bar is sweet and chewy. When you pull it apart, there are long, gooey strings of what I’m guessing is mostly corn syrup. It reminds me of thin, soft caramel strands but not the color of caramel. This is more whitish or even translucent.
The peanuts, cashews, and coconut really stand out with their strong nutty and coconut notes. The dark chocolate coating, on the bottom of the bar, along with the chocolate chips wrap your taste buds in chocolatey flavor, too.

According to the LÄRABAR® website, their fruit & nut Bars are Gluten Free, Dairy Free, and Non-GMO. They have manufacturing processes in place to protect against cross-contact with gluten containing products.
The ingredients are unsweetened fruits, nuts, and spices that are minimally processed to be as close as possible to their natural state.
I don’t have any dietary reason to eat Larabar, but I have been curious to try one for a long time. So, I picked up a box in my local grocery store.
