The catch

One tiny 100 calorie bar packs 8 grams of added sugar, roughly a third of the daily limit, with syrups as the leading ingredients. (source)

The honest take

This is the mini 28 gram version of the classic CLIF energy bar, and it reads more like a small oat and chocolate treat than a health food. Each little bar is 100 calories with 8 grams of added sugar, which is a lot for something this small, and the label leads with organic brown rice syrup and cane syrup, so sugar in various forms is the backbone. You do get 4 grams of plant protein and 2 grams of fiber, but the payoff here is quick carbohydrate energy rather than staying power or a clean macro profile. A health minded shopper reaching for this should treat it as a pre workout or mid hike carb hit, not an everyday snack.
