Does anyone make a healthier/cleaner “Almond Joy” or “Mounds”?

Looks like Whole Foods carries those Unreal coconut bars in the standard candy bar size. Most places only stock the snack size bags.

Update-

Unreal bars are okay… but taste kind of flat and the texture is gritty, not smooth. I would not buy them again.

Panera macaroons are great… better than a Mounds bar for sure. Great texture, crisp exterior and dense, chewy moist interior. Great coconut and chocolate flavors.

I like Bounty- I usually buy them at airports in Europe or Middle East. They are not high end but taste much better than Almond Joy or Mounds, imo.

Make your own.
Shredded coconut you make yourself with a cheese grater, clump it up and pour melted chocolate over them. You could also make your own chocolate if you wanted. Easy to get ingredients.

It’s the sugar that’s bad for you, moron, not the ingredients your cult leader RFK Jr has convinced you are dangerous because they’re “banned in Europe”.

You can buy bounty here at Indian or British grocery shops.

People who use the word “clean” to sincerely describe food are disordered eaters.

Just eat an occasional Almond Joy as a treat every once in a while and don’t panic.

Nope and Bounty is significantly better than both of those.

Coconut macaroons are just shredded coconut (unsweetened), a can of condensed milk, and 2 stiff beaten egg whites. You fold in the beaten egg whites into the milk/cononut mixture, spoon out, and bake. Dip in high quality melted dark chocolate when cooled

Ain't nobody got time for that.

Exactly! Also the reason why I wear adult diaper and change it once a day.

Thanks. Going to try it.

DP, but disagree. Most people have to already eat more processed crap than what they want; work events, kids sports games, parties, family gatherings where you didn’t do the cooking, someone has you over, etc. Which means when I am fully in control of what I’m eating, I try to make even better choices.

What ingredients might that be?

Have you ever tasted any? It’s engineered to be addictive.

The Kind Diet PB cup recipe is pretty good

I will admit being addicted to food. I can't seem to break the habit either.
