BLUE DINOSAUR BANANA BREAD BAR
NOW we're talking! Just FIVE ingredients and I can pronounce them all - coconut, dates, banana, coconut oil, and cinnamon. That's it! No glucose syrup, no 'natural flavours', no preservatives. This is what a real food bar sho
MOTHER EARTH CHOCOLATE CHIP OATY SLICE
At first glance, this bar looks more promising than most. It’s refreshing to see real butter instead of vegetable oils, and it contains some wholegrains. These choices suggest a more thoughtful formulation, and that’s som
COLES MUESLI BARS STRAWBERRY YOGHURT TOP
This earns the same 2.5 stars as Uncle Tobys bars - and for similar reasons. Despite wholegrains, the ultra-processed coating, multiple sugars, and lack of real fruit keep it firmly in "limit" territory. At least the price re
UNCLE TOBYS MUESLI BARS CHEWY APRICOT
Small improvements don't change the big picture. Yes, 8% fruit beats the competition and the fibre content is good, but with ultra-processed sugars, multiple additives, and a 14+ ingredient list, this is still industrial food
NOSHU LOW CARB CHERRY AND COCONUT INDULGENCE BARS
This bar achieves its low-carb label through ingredient engineering rather than real food swaps. While it may fit keto macros on paper, the high dose of synthetic fibres and sugar alcohols can lead to bloating and gut discomf
UNCLE TOBYS MUESLI BARS YOGHURT & STRAWBERRY
This bar’s 4-star health rating is a textbook example of how the current system misleads families. Yes, it contains 34% oats and 10.5g fibre (per 100g) — but look closer: just 1% real strawberry, ultra-processed yoghurt c
KOJA LIGHTLY BAKED OAT BITES
KOJA has genuinely innovated in a category drowning in sugar. With a third of the sugar and triple the fibre of competitors, this is a bar I can actually recommend. Proof that food manufacturers CAN do better when they try!
NESTLÉ MILO DIPPED SNACK BARS WITH WHITE CHOCOLATE
The facts speak for themselves: nine sugars, five emulsifiers, two maltodextrins, and a kitchen sink of additives. Yes, the fibre content is genuinely impressive and the total sugar is lower than some disasters we've seen. Bu
KELLOGG’S NUTRI GRAIN BARS ORIGINAL
The ‘Nutri’ name can be viewed as misleading given the product’s nutritional profile. - there's nothing nutritious here. With nearly 40% sugar, six different sweeteners, and virtually no fibre, this is only marginally b
KELLOGG’S LCMs KALEIDOS RICE BUBBLES SNACK BARS
With 40% sugar and more ultra-processed ingredients than you can shake a stick at, this is a confectionary bar that is masquerading as a school-friendly snack. The natural colours are literally the only positive in a sea of n
