Greens Plus Chia Energy Chocolate Bar Review

These bars are really fantastic!  Great for on the go, minus all the little chia seeds that get stuck in your teeth.  Warning: you need to be around people who love you even when you have bits in your teeth or have some floss.  :)

The downside is they are on the high side sugar wise at 21 grams- organic dates being the first ingredient... though it is filled with good stuff that will most likely help alleviate the rush. 

Ingredients: Organic dates, organic almond butter, Omega 3 Chia Seeds, organic honey, original Greens Plus powder (GMO-free soy lecithin, Hawaiian Spirulina, organic apple fiber, organic barley grass, organic wheat grass, Japanese chlorella, hydroponic soy sprouts, organic brown rice bran, sprouted barley malt, alfalfa grass, royal jelly, Montana bee pollen, acerola berry juice, natural Vitamin E, licorice root powder, milk thistle seed extract, echinacea root extract, Siberian eleuthero root extract, astragalus root extract, licorice root extract, organic red beet juice, dunaliella salina algae, organic Nova Scotia Dulse, organic ginkgo biloba leaf extract, organic Japanese green tea extract, grape seed and skin extract, organic Swedish bilberry extract), organic quinoa sprout powder, GMO-free soy protein isolate, natural mixed tocopherols (Vitamin E).
Chocolate Coating Ingredients: Barley malt-sweetened chocolate, cocoa butter, GMO-free soy lecithin, vanilla extract. 

They don't have that overly heavy or compacted feeling/taste most energy bars do.  I'd give them a try if you are looking for another on the go option.
