One bar has 16g of added sugar, about a third of the 50g daily limit, coming mostly from organic cane syrup and brown rice syrup. (source)
The honest take
The CLIF Chocolate Chip is an organic oat and syrup energy bar built to fuel a workout, not to be a low sugar snack. Each 68g bar runs 250 calories with 10g of plant protein and 5g of fiber, which is genuinely useful before a long ride or hike. The catch is that it leans on organic cane syrup and brown rice syrup, so you get 16g of added sugar, roughly a third of a day's limit. If you are grabbing it as an everyday desk snack rather than endurance fuel, that sugar adds up faster than the label suggests.
