Hazelnut Nougat Protein Bar

Breakdown

Ultra-processed · 6 ingredients to avoid

ESN Hazelnut Nougat Protein Bar scores 11/100 on Tallow — our avoid band. That number comes from what is on the label: the ingredients, how processed it is, and what it is packaged in. Per serving it carries 1g fiber, 14g protein and 1g sugar. It is not a verdict on your diet — Tallow does not weigh calories, portion size or how often you eat it, so a high score means the ingredients are clean, not that the food is unlimited.

ESN Hazelnut Nougat Protein Bar lists 20 ingredients, starting with Milk Protein, Maltitol, Hazelnut Paste, Sunflower Oil 11% Hazelnuts and Sweet Whey Powder. Ingredients are listed in descending order by weight, so the first few make up most of what you are eating.

186 kcal per serving, or 414 kcal per 100g. Calories are only part of the picture — Tallow scores ESN Hazelnut Nougat Protein Bar on what the ingredients are, not how many calories they carry.

At 11/100 ESN Hazelnut Nougat Protein Bar scores worse than most protein & snack bars we have scored. A higher-scoring option in protein & snack bars is That’s It Apple + Strawberries Fruit Bar at 100/100.
