Each bar carries 16g of added sugars, most of it from brown rice syrup and cane syrup, so it eats up a big share of a day's sugar budget in one snack. (source)
The honest take
This is a plant based oat energy bar built as workout fuel, not a low sugar snack, and the ingredient list makes that clear with organic brown rice syrup and cane syrup leading the way. One 68g bar runs 250 calories with 43g carbs, 16g added sugars, 10g protein, 6g fiber, and a small caffeine hit from green tea extract. If you want fast fuel before a long ride, run, or hike, that sugar and carb load is the point and it does the job. If you are reaching for it as an everyday desk snack, the added sugar is closer to a candy bar than a health food.
