The Peanut Butter Honey GoodOnYa bar ios awesome. It is really filling, healthy and tasty.
Over the past few months I have been making homemade granola bars to take on hikes around Northern CA. GoodOnYa really challenges those homemade guys in a flavor contest. In the texture category, my granola bars win. But they have things like brown sugar and butter. Not the healthiest, in short.
I plan on having one of these bars in my purse at all times from now on.
I have been enjoying the GoodOnYa Bar for two years. I was born "green" in the 1940's and never adapted to store bought packaged food. I have always made my biking balls for a protein boost when I bike.
The Goodonya bar is excellent! Terrific dark chocolate, lots of flax and hemp,,just the right size and it is all pure organic goodness. Plus the green packaging is a wonderful innovative way to present this terrific enjoyable and healthy bar.
These bars were great and had a wonderfully natural flavor. I appreciated teh amount of flax in it and the nutrition.
reviewed January 10, 2009 at 7:54 pm It's true our bar cost $3.00. But when you buy a bar for $1.29 retail you have to ask yourself how much it cost the manufacture to make that bar? What is the quality of the ingredients they are using?
When you eat food that is baked, you lose at least half the nutritional value. Half the protein. So where is the value in that? Organic raw nuts and seeds are designed to digest in our bodies. The protein, fiber and nutrients in our bar are bio-available. That is value!
So all in all I like their Peanut Butter Chocolate, Peanut Butter Honey and Maple Dark Chocolate snack bars. However, on the Maple dark chocolate bar I tasted a bit of an after taste--not sure if that fact is canceled out by the lovely chunks of chocolate. Try and you decide.
Yummers! I will buy this
reviewed November 17, 2008 at 11:08 am I had the pleasure of meeting the founders of the The GoodOnyaBar company at SF Greenfest - they were very pleasant to talk to and absolutely make a great product. The maple dark chocolate bar was my favorite of the samples (I also tried the peanut butter chocolate one) and it's hard to argue with the great ingredients.
They're also incredibly environmentally conscious with their packaging. My only complaint is that the bars are pretty tiny inside the packages for $3/piece, but then again, America could benefit from some portion control, ha.
I really appreciate that the packaging is biodegradable. I probably would have bought this product only for the fact that it's named after one of my favorite pieces of New Zealand slang "Good On Ya." The Maple Dark Chocolate is meh, ok. The Peanut Butter Honey is getting there, coming in at a solid 'pretty good." The best flavor is the Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate. But I'm a sucker for this flavor combo, and this bar has the chocolate that tastes like real chocolate. And that is something to write home about (or a review online).
reviewed January 7, 2009 at 10:13 am So Deej mentioned in his review that he met the founders and got to eat some GoodOnYa Bar at SF Greenfest. Well...so did I! And I have to agree with his assessment that it's a great product.
Let's talk about the bars themselves. I haven't tasted the peanut butter honey kind, but the Maple Dark Chocolate and the Peanut Butter Chocolate ones are really tasty. I'm a huge fan of the flax and hemp seed in them. They go really nicely with the chocolate. The bars aren't too sweet, which is a big deal for me. And they're not too big and not too small. They're quite filling and have a good amount of protein (the Maple Dark Chocolate kind has 7.6g per bar)...no transfats...organic...delicious.
And when I say the samples at Greenfest weren't big enough...that's totally a joke. They were actually really quite big. And delicious.
