I just tried the Vega Sport Chocolate Coconut protein bar and it was quite good. Tasting like a small, thick chocolate brownie with a hint of coconut, I enjoyed it. I’ve tried some of their protein powders in the past and like them, but I like the flavor of this even more. Nutrition info is below, but overall with 15g of protrein and only 250 calories, it’s not bad for some post-workout nutrition while on the go. I haven’t seen many vegan protein products (at least out in stores) so I was pleased to come across this one.
