Team Nutrilov got in touch with me a little over a week ago asking if I would like to try their products. Since I've been on a health kick anyway, I decided to try them out. Now, these aren't protein bars. They're more appropriately termed as 'healthy snack bars', and if you love sweet, oatey goodness, you're in for a treat.
These bars can be delivered to you anywhere in Karachi. All you have to do is inbox here with your name, address, phone number and of course, your order and Team Nutrilov will get you what you need. Now the packaging, as you can see is very cute. Comes with a handwritten note as well, and my love for those has been mentioned a few times.
I received 2 flavors, peanut butter and raisins (PB&R) and chocolate chip and coconut (CC&C). While it was advised to have them cold, I tried them at room temperature and refrigerated. And somehow, the flavors were better at room temperature for the PB&R, while the CC&C was better refrigerated, probably because I don't like cold peanut butter and love cold chocolate chips.
The flavors of both were amazing. There's the bite of granola bars in both of them of course, since that's essentially what they are. That's where the similarities end, though.
The PB&R is my favorite, probably because when I eat it I feel like I'm actually eating something healthy and not cheating on my diet. At room temperature, the raisins are soft and squishy, and the flavor of the peanut butter really stands out. Soft, chewy and delicious. When it's cooled, the bar becomes crispier and a little harder to chew, and the flavor of the peanut butter kind of tones down.
The CC&C has a soft spot in my heart, though. It came to my rescue when I woke up with a massive headache a few mornings ago and couldn't find anything I could eat within seconds and then pop a painkiller. This friendly CC&C bar was waiting to be opened and scarfed down in the refrigerator, and that's what I did. It got me an hour's worth of sleep on a weekday, and who doesn't love that? The flavor of this can best be described as granola, chocolate, tiny pockets of salt and the little chew of desiccated coconut, not really a strong flavor of it. While I would have loved a little more coconutty essence in the CC&C bar, I still caught that crunch of coconut which was oddly satisfying, especially when the bar has been refrigerated.
All in all, these healthy snack bars are the perfect hunger killers. I've had them in between meals when I've been starving and they have helped ward off hunger pangs for a good 2 hours. Taste-wise they're a sweet lover's heaven without the crazy calories, and for someone who's on the go and doesn't want to waste time eating, these are absolutely perfect.
I'm definitely ordering these again, and I suggest you do too!
