Quick answer

Enjoy in Moderation

Square Organics organic protein bar chocolate coated, mint is rated enjoy in moderation overall, with a Longevity Score of 74 out of 100 and a Food Integrity Score of 84 out of 100. Organic whole-food base with decent protein and fiber, but added sweeteners and coconut oil keep it a moderate, occasional choice. Strengths include organic whole-food ingredients with recognizable base, solid protein (12g) and some fiber (2g), and no artificial colors or sweeteners listed, while main considerations include added sweeteners: coconut nectar, dried cane syrup, brown rice syrup, saturated fat about 6g from coconut oil and cocoa butter, and chocolate coating adds sugar and calorie density.
