Snack bars refer to small, lightweight, and condensed rectangular bars that are meant to be consumed on the go. They generally consist of mixed grains, cereals, corn or honey syrup, nuts, vegetable and fruit extracts. Some of the numerous flavors added to these bars include beet, spirulina, red berry, orange, brownie, and peanut butter. Commonly characterized by a slight savory taste, they are a rich source of nutrients, have a high-calorie content, and consist of bioactive compounds and dietary fibers. As a result, they are widely consumed as meal replacement or an instant snack across the globe.
