STC Nutrition Vegan Bar

We used the STC Vegan bars whilst biking and trail running. They stand out by their vegetable protein content: sunflower and pumpkin seeds, cranberries, raisins, peanuts, and more. Other bars use pea protein, soya or rice, etc.

 

The packet proudly announces that it is “VEGAN”. Which makes you wonder what other cereal bars are made out of; meat juice, ribs’ extract? Is the name Vegan just a marketing ploy on the latest trend?

 

When a bar is stipulated as a high-protein bar (more than 15g of protein per bar), most of the time the bars include lactose serum. Which is a milk derivative, whey powder for all intents and purposes. So the STC bar can claim to be vegan because they do not contain milk derivatives. The bar states having 5.4g of protein, which is not that much.

This bar is vegan, gluten free and rich in fibers, we advise eating this more as a snack bar because during sporting efforts its digestion time is long and the high fiber content for some could prove a problem. Obviously each organism is different, and needs to test to know what works and what doesn’t.

 

The STC Vegan Bar has 10g of lipids which is the average allowed. We liked the taste which wasn’t too sweet, that you can see in the 15g of carbohydrates, most bars have a much higher level of sugars.

 

The bar is easy to eat, the texture is pleasant and the cranberries give a nice mixture of texture with the crunch. The bar doesn’t disintegrate in the action and is easy to bite, but chewing takes some time. There is no aftertaste. The packet is tough and keeps the bar dry, but is not easy to open: we always had to use our teeth to open it.

 

For optimum quality we would’ve liked to have seen organic ingredients used. The STC Vegan is for sporting people who want a snack from a bar that isn’t too sweet and has a pleasant taste.

 

 

5 bars 9,95 euros.
