This bar is ultra-processed at 443 kcal per 100 g. In an NIH inpatient RCT (Hall et al., Cell Metab 2019), UPF menus drove +508 kcal/day overconsumption at matched macros. The "healthy snack" halo does not change the tracking case.
How should I track Granola bars, soft, uncoated, plain?
Granola bars, soft, uncoated, plain is a good source of magnesium. When it comes to Granola bars, soft, uncoated, plain, weighing beats counting every time. Snack pieces vary in size, and a handful from a bag can easily be 50–100% more than the label serving. Research (Almiron-Roig et al., Appetite 2013) shows that people consistently underestimate portions of calorie-dense snacks. Another common trap: multi-serving packages. The label might show 150 calories "per serving," but if the bag contains three servings, you are really looking at 450 calories. Always check whether values are per piece, per serving, or per package.
