I guess this is a lot "Kinder" than many other granola bars out there, but not nearly as great as a healthy trail mix, mixed nuts, or just some almonds. But of course it does taste good and is convenient. This is processed food. I do think the "Kind" branding is misleading, just like the branding of "Cliff Bars." Added sugar is bad, and it all adds up over time.
I used to love these, until my blood sugar (A1C) started trending up, not good, so I am going cold turkey.
There are zero sugar Kind bars out there for a reason, but they are never on sale. They are like $7 for 5 bars, not 6, and each bar is only 35 grams, not 40 grams. It probably has to do with economies of scale, but there is something odd about charging much more for stuff that costs them less, maybe because it is less addictive and you won't want to eat as many without the sugar spike that keeps you hungry.
They are probably not going to cause any short term problems if you are under 35 years old and exercise a lot. Hopefully you don't get diabetes before you figure this all out, I am know I am not waiting for that.

Ordered without checking and found out.
Will avoid Kind bars in future.
