LUNA Chocolate Peppermint Stick Minis are gluten-free, non-GMO snack bars that are small in size and perfect for packing to go. These new products boast just 90 calories, four grams of sugar, three grams of protein and a single gram of fiber per bar, plus they come in a minty flavor.
Made with chocolate rolled oats dipped in peppermint, the mini bars get their vibrant color from beet juice concentrate. Some of the other key ingredients that go into making these bars include soy protein and rice flour, roasted soybeans and soy flour.
These bite-sized bars are even more compact than LUNA's full-sized bars and they help to provide a quick, sweet snack between meals.
