Odwalla Chewy Nut Bar
By: | Jan 16, 2008
If you’ve read my review of Clif Mojo Bars, you’ll know that I love combination of sweet and salty flavors. Give me honey-roasted peanuts or chocolate-covered pretzels any day, and I’ll be a happy camper. It was just this taste for sweet and savory that prompted me to buy Odwalla Chewy Nut Bars.
Chewy Nut Bars come in three varieties: Sweet and Salty Almond, Sweet and Salty Peanut, and Trail Mix. All three varieties have a very similar flavor, which is decidedly more sweet than salty. These make a great snack on-the-go—definitely more so than Mojo Bars because they are not as crumbly. One word of advice—I recommend biting into these bars directly rather than breaking off pieces with your fingers. Chewy Nut Bars are sticky, and yes, very chewy.
Each 45 gram bar contains 190-220 Calories and 6-11 grams of fat. The sizeable fat gram count comes from the abundance of chopped nuts in each bar. In addition, there are just 5 grams of protein, 2-6 grams of fiber, and a smattering of vitamins and minerals. The almond variety has the most fiber (6g) and the least amount of sugar, with 8 grams instead of 11-12 grams.
I purchased these at Whole Foods for $1.19 each. I would buy these again, but not as a source of protein. Nonetheless, Odwalla’s Chewy Nut Bars are a tasty, filling snack.

If you are talking healthy foods, I don’t think it matters at all what you eat, unless it is poisonous. A person will just need to have enough exercise during the day and that absolutely solves all the problems. There are even guys who want to sell healthy pizza e.g. www.pizzacentral.ca … I think it is all marketing tricks, all food is ok.
