Luna Protein Chocolate Cherry Almond Bar

Luna Protein BarsWe love Luna Bars around here and I keep them on hand for when the afternoon munchies threaten to slow me down during the midst of a crazy day. The Luna Protein Bar (Chocolate Peanut Butter) really rocked my world, so I was curious to see if the other varieties would be equally as delicious.

Like the Chocolate Peanut Butter variety, this Chocolate Cherry Luna Protein Bar had a chewy texture. In addition, almonds and cherries were scattered throughout the chewy nougat, which made for a delightful texture and flavor profile.

This flavor is delicious, and although the saturated fat is a little too much, the amount of protein and fiber in this reasonably sized bar is pretty good. Luna Protein Chocolate Cherry Almond Bars can be purchased online at $18.75 for a case of 12. However, the unique taste and texture of Luna Protein Bars compels me to encourage you to try one from your local grocery store before buying a whole case.
