SnackSwapperThe honest verdict
Is Quaker Chewy Chocolate Chip Bars Actually Healthy?
The lunchbox classic is mostly binder syrup holding oats and chocolate together. At 100 calories a bar it won't wreck anything, but with 1g of protein it also won't do anything — it's a cookie with granola posture.
