Lately it seems as if I can’t get a hold on my hunger especially after I run. I’m just rungry all the time. I’ve been doing my best to eat “good for you foods” but as life goes on, that doesn’t always happen.
As part of being a Sweat Pink Ambassador with Fit Approach, I had the opportunity to test out the Manitoba Hemp Heart Bars! I can’t lie, I LOVED the Apple Cinnamon bar. They filled me up when I needed the extra fuel.
What are they?
They are these soft bars filled with hemp hearts and yummy other ingredients. Manitoba Harvest whipped up three different delicious flavours to choose from: vanilla, chocolate and apple cinnamon. Each 45 gram bar contains 10 grams of plant-based protein and 10 grams of omegas, so whether you grab one for a pre-workout snack or nutrition on the go, these convenient bars are sure to get you through even your busiest day.
What I liked about them:
- Super soft.
- Lots of protein.
- Not overly processed with crap.
- Great as a snack or after a workout when you need a little something
- Loved the taste of the Apple Cinnamon bar – my favourite.
- They are also vegan….no I didn’t let my husband try them…whoops!
What I didn’t like about them:
- The Vanilla and Chocolate lacked flavour; kind of bland.
- That’s it.

Also the photos taken are terrible but I didn’t realise this until after all the bars were consumed 😦 Blogger fail….apparently my eyes are failing me.

Distance running makes me hungry too! I have some of these bars coming and I cannot wait to try them! I think 10g of sugar is a lot and I hope they are worth it!
Elle – I think you’ll like the Apple Cinnamon…as for the sugar they don’t taste like they have too much.
I usually eat Betty’s Z Bars when I’m looking for a snack. I’ve heard of these before and would love to try them…even the vanilla if they are a little bland!
I have been dying to try these! Love this review and heading over to their website now! Yum!
Hope you check them out. I know I’d love to order a box of the Apple Cinnamon ones 🙂
I liked the vanilla. I was prepared to be disappointed. Love the apple cinn the best!
The Vanilla was okay – my 2nd best. I was disappointed in the chocolate, thought there would be a little more oomph!
I never tried these but would love to! My go to bars are always Quest bars, but I don’t know that they are actually awesome for you. I like the protein and if you microwave them, it’s *almost* like a warm brownie or something.
Lately I’ve been very rungry and also hangry. What would that be called? Rangrey? That’s what I am.
Rangrey – that’s totally a thing and I’ve been there too! I honestly don’t know if I ever have had a Quest bar…I’ve seen them but never had one. There is a local company that makes the MOST amazing bars – hands down the best I’ve ever had!!!
I love bars so much!! I don’t love Quest bars cold, but pop them in the microwave for like 20 seconds and bam. I love it!
