It doesn't tate enough blueberry. Too much Acai taste. But the chocolate is good. I found the bar too hard. It was difficult to eat without hurting my jaw.
Brook side dark chocolate fruit & nut bars - tried blueberry with Acari, cherry with pomegranate and cranberry with blueberry. All three bar where delicious a little high in sugar then I normally like. I think that there are a lot of delicious bars out there that aren't as expensive (1.99 each).
I really enjoyed this bar. I picked it up for an afternoon snack and I found it very filling and I loved the mixture of nuts, fruit and dark chocolate. I found the price reasonable as well.
This is my least favourite flavor of the nut bars - the Blueberry with chocolate left it quite bitter and not very delicious. I did enjoy the nuts within though - they were crunchy and fresh.
I did not enjoy the bitter chocolate, therefore was only able to eat part of the half with blueberries and nuts on it.
I would not purchase this bar again in the future, as it was just not to my liking - with or without the chocolate.
Perhaps if someone enjoys blueberries and bitter chocolate, this would be best suited to them.

Pretty tasty! I tried this one and thought it was decent and my middle child scarfed down the other 2 so I would say kids like it also! lol
I received three of these bars for free to review and sample.
I loved the dark chocolate on the bottom and this bar was just sweet enough, without being too sweet. I am a fan of these types of bars, but haven't really tried any with the dark chocolate on the bottom before. It was a 'good treat' option for me. The calories aren't that bad and I tend to watch my sugar intake, so there were carbs in there, but they were 'healthy' carbs, not from added sugars or those types of things.
I will definitely buy these again. I did find them rather small for the $1.99 price point.
I didn't get this for free to try, but I bought the Acai and blueberry one from store. I think it tastes fantastic with the fruit . I have tasted other varities of Brook side chocolates and they are really good too.
I try to eat organic as much as possible, and often non-GMO products don't have quite as much taste as their "regular" counterparts. Before I received the product, I was kinda expecting it to be more of a chocolate bar with pieces of fruit and grains, so I was surprised to find that they are a kind of granola bar. I loved the taste of the blueberry and acai berry which wasn't overpowering. I especially loved that it tasted like real berries and not the artificial blueberry flavor that most products use. I'm not sure how the price compares to similar products, but since they are quite filling, and obviously delicious, it would be well worth the cost.
This bar is likely as nutritional as any other fruit and nut bar, which is why I gave it a good score for nutritional value. It is non-GMO and GLUTEN FREE, making it a good option for those who thermite can't eat many bars or snacks due to gluten intolerance. As far as taste goes, I wasn't a big fan, which is surprising because I really love the chocolate covered fruit snacks made by brookside in all flavours. The Acai definitely over powered any other taste in the bar including the chocolate. Overall it isn't something I would personally buy regularly but it it a taste one can get used to and some I'm sure will find tastes good. I would eat it if I was hungry and it was available. I received this product free to try from chick advisor. I did recommend it, basically for those who are gluten free, personally I prefer other fruit and nut bars I have tried. Other flavours may be better, I still have to try and review cherry and blue berry.
