We’re always looking for new, healthy treats to satisfy our sweet tooth, and\u00a0Fiber One<\/a><\/strong>\u00a0has delivered once again with their 90 calorie brownie bars. The health-minded company sent us a sample of their newest 90 calorie bar flavor – chocolate chip cookie – and we gave it a thorough investigation to see if it was up to our healthy standards.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

For the most part these bars really are pretty good for you. Upon reading the nutrition label, we noticed that each bar contained just 90 calories, 3 grams of fat, 1.5 grams of saturated fat, 18 grams of carbohydrates, 5 grams of dietary fiber, 8 grams of sugar, and 1 gram of protein. Considering that this is a\u00a0pre-packaged cookie<\/a><\/strong>, the statistics aren’t bad.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

However, what we did have a slight problem with was the ingredients list. The first two items listed were “whole wheat\u00a0bleached<\/strong>\u00a0flour” and “sugar<\/strong>.” Anytime standard sugar is among the first few ingredients on a label, it’s bound to be fairly\u00a0high in sugar<\/a><\/strong>. And unbleached \u00a0flour always trumps bleached, in our opinion.<\/p>\n

We do give Fiber One points for not adding any high fructose corn syrup or too many preservatives to their product. But anytime you’re consuming food that comes in a package as opposed to fresh or homemade, it will ienvitably fall short in the nutrition category.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

But for dieters looking for a small treat after a meal or a light afternoon snack, Fiber One’s 90 Calorie Bars are a nice option. The overall taste was very pleasant – moist and indulgent with plenty of chocolate chips, and it didn’t leave us riding a sugar high or with any sour after tastes.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/a><\/p>\n

While we wouldn’t recommend making a habit of eating these bars – or other processed foods, for that matter – every once in a while poses no harm.<\/p>\n
