What You Should Know

You'd spot this bar in the natural-foods or snack aisle, or packed in a gym bag or lunchbox for a quick grab-and-go bite. It feels wholesome and slightly indulgent—peanut-butter-and-chocolate comfort with an organic, health-forward spin. The ingredient list points to a chewy, whole-ingredient texture built from dates, peanuts and simple oils rather than industrial additives, suggesting processed manufacturing but not heavy ultra-processing.

Ultra-Processing Assessment

NOVA Score:3 / 4

Processed Food

Why this score?

Made primarily from whole or culinary ingredients (dates, peanuts, maple syrup) with added oils and peanut flour and packaged as a ready-to-eat bar, it fits NOVA 3 (processed). It lacks the industrial additives, emulsifiers or isolated substances that typically characterize NOVA 4 ultra-processed foods.
