There are a few different companies out there making paleo snack and cookie products. I’ve been curious about what the various offerings tasted like, so I went ahead and bought some of all of them. For your benefit, I’ve provided some information about the companies, the product ingredients, and my personal taste-test opinion.

PaleoBrands – Paleo Brands started with an observation and a desire to literally change the world. The observation was that simple nutritional changes can lead to remarkable health improvements, and can even reverse disease.

PaleoKits – Fuel for your journey – Steve’s Original is, at its core, about journeys. Their story is the result of years of searching for a healthier way to live; and eat. Their “Originals” are about the journey that we all take to find a better way to live our lives and fuel our bodies.

What is it like? These are much more like a traditional granola bar, not very chewy, and falls apart easier. It tastes a little dry, but was pretty good with a drink.

PaleoTreats – Paleo treats are cookies and chocolate bars made for followers of the Paleo diet. Like cage-fighting for your mouth, best enjoyed on the side of a mountain while you watch the thunderheads roll in and prepare for nature to wash you clean of your sins and shiver away your fears, paleo treats are for those who enjoy the intensities of life.

Paleo Treats - Brownie Bomb

What is it like? A little crumbly, and falls apart quite easily, but there is a nice dark chocolate taste. Not too sweet, just sweet enough.

I can’t really say anything bad about any of these snack products. Overall, I think the Mac Attack was my favorite. Since eating paleo more often I’ve really grown to love the taste of coconut.

I’ve looked over the ingredients thoroughly, and I believe these companies have done their best to make a fully “paleo” product, while still coming up with a snack that actually tastes good. I certainly had a fun time taste-testing them all… Just be sure to keep your budget in mind when you buy them. I’d regard them as gourmet or specialty treats, not something to binge on while watching a football game. Bon appétit!
