When to Choose ALOHA Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Protein Bar
Health-conscious consumers who want the best-tasting organic plant-based protein bar
ALOHA nails the balance between clean ingredients and great taste. USDA Organic, monk fruit sweetened (no stevia), and free of sugar alcohols. The 14g plant protein is moderate but the ingredient quality is exceptional. One of the few bars that's genuinely enjoyable to eat while being genuinely clean.
Strengths
- USDA Organic with monk fruit sweetening — stevia-free and sugar alcohol-free
- Brown rice and pumpkin seed protein blend provides 14g plant-based protein
- Consistently top-rated for taste among organic plant-based protein bars
Limitations
- Plant protein blend has lower bioavailability than whey or egg white sources
- 14g protein per bar is moderate — not ideal for high-protein diets
- Premium pricing at ~$2.92/bar for a plant-based bar
When to Choose Pure Protein Chocolate Peanut Butter Bar
Budget buyers who want the most protein per dollar and are not concerned about artificial sweeteners
Pure Protein wins on value — 20g protein at ~$1.33/bar is the cheapest protein per gram in this comparison. The whey blend is effective. But sucralose and likely artificial flavors earn it some of the lowest ingredient scores. This is the bar for those who count macros and dollars, not ingredient labels.
Strengths
- Best value in this comparison at ~$1.33/bar with 20g protein per bar
- Whey protein blend provides good bioavailability and complete amino acids
- Widely available at nearly every grocery store, convenience store, and pharmacy
Limitations
- Contains sucralose — a controversial artificial sweetener penalized in our scoring
- Likely contains artificial flavors alongside the sucralose sweetening
- Minimal transparency about sourcing, testing, or manufacturing practices
