Longevity Score

82/100

Food Integrity Score

92/100

Solid Choice

One score is excellent and the other is still solid, so this can fit well with a few tradeoffs to keep in mind.

Quick answer

Solid Choice

Larabar peanut butter chocolate chip mini fruit & nut bar is rated solid choice overall, with a Longevity Score of 82 out of 100 and a Food Integrity Score of 92 out of 100. Short, simple ingredient list of dates, peanuts, and chocolate with modest sugar, though the added sugar in chips is worth noting. Strengths include short list of recognizable whole-food ingredients, dates and peanuts provide fiber and plant protein, and low sodium and no artificial colors or sweeteners, while main considerations include sugar from dates and added sugar in chocolate chips, low protein relative to calorie count, and semisweet chips add some processing.
