OHi Plant-Based Superfood Bars

I ordered the variety pack for my summer backpacking trips. I was looking for all natural, packable bursts of energy that weren’t sugar bombs and decided to give these a try. I’m really impressed with the texture and flavor of these bars. They’re soft, chewey, and feel like *real* food versus your run of the mill protein bars (Even Kind bars always make me feel like I’m gonna crack a tooth). There’s very little sugar in them which I love; the chocolate bar tastes rich and dark and the greens bar tastes wonderfully vegetal rather than being covered up by sugar. I’m also really impressed with the quality of ingredients; the Coconut Macadamia one (my favorite) felt like it had 20 macadamia nuts in it! The bars don’t have any preservatives in them so they arrived in a cooler bag with an ice pack and state that they require refrigeration, but they stayed fresh in our backpacks in 100 degree weather the entire weekend. Needless to say, I’ll be reordering them for my runs, hikes, and lunches.

This item arrives with a cold pack. You keep it in the refigerator. I'm not sure why, but I like the bar to be soft so I take it out a few minutes before I'm ready to eat. You can leave the bars unrefigeratored for 1 week, so if your taking it to work as part of a snack each day there is no need to worry about keeping it cool. The bars are soft and chewy, they have tiny bits of chocolate, which I didn' t expect based on the name of the product. I could have done without the bits of chocolate. This is a great grain free option, it's flavorful, not too sweet nor bitter. You can see the chunks of ingredients in the bar, it's not one of those ground up into a paste sticky type of bars that are date or nut butter based.

Although I am not typically a fan of energy bars, my son brought these on a long morning hike and I confess I was immediately hooked! I have now tried both the almond crunch and the coconut and love them both. As a physician interested in healthful eating and aware of the importance of avoiding simple sugars in processed foods, I am especially impressed with the energy density focused on protein and healthy fat while avoiding the sugar so often used in other bars. Although they need to be refrigerated for storage, they stay incredibly fresh and tasteful for many hours into a hike. In fact the need for refrigerated storage just reminds me of the great nutritional composition of the bars. I find myself using the bars as my go-to nutrition when traveling and spending long days away from home.

As someone who’s always rushing in the mornings, I’ve bought and ate a ton of different bars as breakfast substitutes. As I’ve become more conscious of what I’m putting into my body (especially as a start to the day), many of these bars either traded off on flavor or nutrition. That said I’m really enjoying these OHi bars without having to sacrifice either. Most days they keep me sufficiently full until right before lunch which is always a plus for me so I don’t end up unhealthy snacking.I’d definitely recommend getting the variety box to start with to figure out what flavor you like the most. They’re all good but you’ll know your favorites by the end. Mines were the Double Chocolate and the Super Green.

I paid $56 for 16 cold pressed refrigerated bars that never arrived. I ordered them in November and they claimed they were delivered on the 2nd of December, in Ocala. Since that’s 30 minutes north of me and nobody can tell me what happened, I was frustrated. These are actually quite tasty and healthy but I’ll never buy them again because of this experience. If you’re going to charge those prices, you should at least give good customer service.

I was very surprised at how moist and fresh these bars tasted. The green bars have a subtle sweet and tart flavor that I really enjoy, I think it must be the mulberries! I actually prefer to leave the bars outside of the fridge for a less crunchy texture, but also enjoyed the consistency of the bars refrigerated and non refrigerated. I think my only complaint would be the shipping, but that's no reflection of the product, and the delivery service thinking it NEEDED to be in a fridge. I shortly wrote them to leave it on my steps and there was no problem. I look forward to ordering again and trying the other flavors!

I've been eating these bars for breakfast on my way to work. They keep me satisfied for hours and taste like I just ate a handful of nuts with some tasty goodness mixed in. Some bars I've tried leave a gross or artificial aftertaste, but these taste like real food - in an easy-to-eat form. I LOVE the coconut macadamia bar, really like the almond crunch bar, like the super green bars, and the double chocolate bar is just OK. I will definitely order them again. Tip - these bars have small seeds, so be sure to check your teeth after eating one!

Hands down the best tasting bar I've ever had, and the ingredients are crazy healthy. I'm certainly no health nut but I'm definitely very lazy when it comes to food. I basically live on grab-&-go food. The problem I've found over the years is grab-&-go food tends to have poor ingredients or blah taste. These bars have answered both these issues. OHi bars are definitely going to be a staple in my fridge for years to come.
