Well, there’s something I don’t hear every day. A Blueberry Muffin flavored bar! And an organic one, at that!
Organic Food Bar sent me some bars to try, including the Blueberry Muffin Crunch Bar.
So, I may have gotten a little, “blueberry muffin crunch bar happy” before I took a picture, because I opened the package and took a bite before taking the actual picture. Whoops! Well anyway, here’s a pic of what I got.
Now, onto the bar! It was a dense and chewy bar, that at first wasn’t that fruity tasting, but as I kept chewing, the sweet fruit flavors emerged. I can certainly taste blueberry, which I liked, which was mildly sweet and quite good. There was a bit of an aftertaste that I couldn’t quite put my finger on what it was- it almost reminded me of a combination of a fig and flaxseed taste. I didn’t really like that part, but it wasn’t bad overall. I did like the little crunchy pieces that gave it some texture.
Overall, this gets 3 stars. I can’t say it really reminded me of a blueberry muffin. When I think of muffins, I think sweet, airy, fluffy and buttery. This was more like a blueberry fruit bar with crunchy pieces of nuts and such. I do like that it was organic, had 6 grams of fiber per serving, and was vegan as well!

I’m a fan of banana muffins, and double chocolate chip muffins. Yum!

I would seriously trek many miles in the rain without my galoshes for the blueberry muffins from our local vegan bakery…they are so amazingly rich and filling and just chock full of blueberries. Thank you so much for all your great vegan food reviews and your star rating system…so helpful!
