nutrition bar
Wrapped energy block
A nutrition bar is a portable, shelf-stable food product designed to deliver calories, protein, or other nutrients in convenient form.
The category includes protein bars, energy bars, meal replacement bars, and granola bars—though boundaries blur.
Marketing emphasizes health benefits, but many are essentially candy bars with added protein: I grabbed a nutrition bar between meetings.
