About Candies, peanut bar
A peanut bar is roasted peanuts held together in a brittle, taffy-like candy of cooked sugar or corn syrup — sometimes called a peanut brittle bar or peanut log. It is densely packed with nuts, giving it a hard, crunchy snap and a strong toasted-peanut flavor.
Thanks to the heavy nut content it is one of the more substantial candies, at about 522 calories per 100 grams with roughly 16 grams of protein and 4 grams of fiber. It also carries about 34 grams of fat (mostly the unsaturated fat of peanuts) and around 47 grams of carbohydrate, of which 42 grams is sugar from the candy binder. Sodium is moderate at around 156 milligrams.
The peanuts give a peanut bar real protein and a satisfying crunch, but the sugar binder and high calorie density keep it firmly in treat territory. It is also hard and sticky, which makes it a dental consideration. A small piece delivers the flavor without overdoing the sugar.
