Many energy bars are loaded with artificial ingredients, unhealthy sources of fat and sugar, and lack the beneficial fats and fiber found in snacks for sustainable energy. Fourpoints is setting itself apart with its range of slow-burn energy bars that feature dried plums as the first ingredient. The 2.5-ounce bars share 11 to 13 grams of protein and are offered in flavors like Backcountry Banana Bread, Powder Day PB&J and Mountain Mocha Espresso, which help to suggest some of the activities people might enjoy as they eat these bars for fuel.
Some of the other key ingredients that can be found in these bars include various nuts and seeds, other dried fruits, as well as cinnamon, vanilla bean and sea salt—and energizing bars also contain 64 milligrams of caffeine.
