ThinkFruit Apple Noni Nourish Bar

By: Tanya Patrice | Jun 5, 2009

Think products say thinkFruit is a pure, unprocessed fruit and nut bar that harnesses the natural superpowers contained in certain fruits and marries them with protein-rich nuts that are high in omega-3 fatty acids, to create a tasty, functional food that boosts immunity and protects you from disease. All the unproven boasting by thinkFruit aside, I decided to try this bar because, I've never met a superfruit that I could resist.

I picked up the ThinkFruit Apple Noni Nourish Bar. I ended up tearing into it on my way to the gym, and I had to say I thought it would be good - I love fruit bars, but this managed to surprise me. It was sweet, as expected, but there were little pieces of I'm not sure what in it too - maybe flaxseed, fruit or cashew. Whatever it was, it added a little texture to make it even yummier than my favorite fruit bar, the LaraBar Cherry Pie Bar.

The ingredients in this bar are dates, cashews, apples, raisins, almonds, chicory root fiber, flaxseeds, natural flavors, cinnamon, noni.

I bought this bar for $1.76 from a local supermarket, and while I loved the taste, each bar has too much sugar in it for me to make this a regular purchase. Still, for those people who go on long runs and want to refuel quickly, this bar might do the trick.
