UNDERSTANDING THE NUTRITION PANEL
This granola bar gets a pretty good grade—for a processed food.

REASONABLE
NUMBER GIVEN
THE SERVING
SIZE IS A FULL
GRANOLA BAR.

AIM LOW.
THIS IS FINE.

AVOID
ALTOGETHER.

SINCE YOU'RE
AIMING FOR
25-36 GRAMS
TOTAL IN A DAY,
6 ISN'T BAD.

GREAT TO SEE A
WHOLE FOOD-
AND A WHOLE SECOND AND THIRD
GRAIN-AS THE INGREDIENTS ARE
FIRST INGREDIENT. ADDED SWEETENERS,
THOUGH. WHILE THE
NUTRITION PROFILE OF
THIS PRODUCT IS NOT
BAD OVERALL, THIS
IS CLEARLY A HIGHLY
PROCESSED FOOD.
