If you\u2019ve ever missed the simple joy of a peanut butter and jelly sandwich, BOBO\u2019s PB&Js might be just what you\u2019re looking for. These oat-based bars offer a convenient twist on the\u00a0classic comfort food, and as a busy vegan always on the go, I had to give them a try. They\u2019re\u00a0essentially soft-baked oat bars filled with a fruity jelly center. The PB&Js come in a two flavors:\u00a0strawberry and grape (my favorite is the strawberry one). This product is labeled as vegan,\u00a0gluten-free, and non-GMO. It is certified kosher by Earth Kosher.<\/p>\n

The first thing I noticed when I tried them was the texture. The oat-based \u201cbread\u201d is soft and\u00a0chewy, with a slightly hearty feel due to the whole grain oats. The peanut butter flavor comes through nicely, not overpowering but present enough to balance the sweetness of the jelly center.\u00a0The jelly itself is flavorful and has a fresh, fruity taste that is neither overly sweet nor too tart.<\/p>\n

One of the things I appreciate about BOBO\u2019s is their ingredient transparency. The PB&Js are\u00a0made with simple, recognizable ingredients, with no artificial flavors or preservatives. Each bar\u00a0contains approximately 230 calories. I personally love having one on hand for a busy morning or\u00a0as a post-run snack. BOBO\u2019s PB&Js are available on Amazon, at most Target and Walmart stores, as well as on their official website:\u00a0https:\/\/eatbobos.com\/products\/peanut-butter-jelly-pbj-oat-snack-variety-pack<\/a>.<\/p>\n
