Candy bars aren't health foods but they do have the potential to offer nutritional benefits, as seen in the new Snickers Hi Protein Bars. This all-new performance nutrition bar boasts all of the same ingredients that fans know and love, plus the added benefit of 20 grams of protein.
The Snickers bar made with chocolate, caramel and peanuts speaks to a wide range of consumers, from extreme athletes to the exercise-curious, and it specifically solves the problem of performance nutrition products tasting poorly. The brand noticed the rising demand for great-tasting protein bars and saw an opportunity to serve people who want high-protein products without compromising on taste. These texture-rich bars are coming to select retailers as of January 2023 before nationwide availability later in the year.
