That’s exactly what this is, a simple nut bar. It’s almost nuttin’ but nuts held together with just enough gooey stuff to make a bar. There’s a little bit of sea salt added in, but not enough to be very salty. There’s no chocolate coating or drizzle. Some dark chocolate would’ve been nice in my opinion. But it’s still good without.
The nuts are large and identifiable by species, just in case you’re into matching up the ingredients to the label. Oooh, there’s a cashew!
As far as snack foods go, this may be one of the healthier/better alternatives. There are relatively few carbs, 11g (3g of that is fiber – not bad). There’s some protein, 5g. The majority of the calories in the bar come from fat, 12g. Of course that fat comes from plant oils in the nuts (and some from the vegetable oil used for toasting(?) the cashews – that’s an interpretation of what the ingredient label says). If we believe what we read elsewhere, plant oils are typically a better fat than animal fat. Since the bar is slightly smaller, 4.7 oz. (132g), versus some other similar bars, there are a few less total calories.
If you’re nutty for nuts, this one is worth a try. At a $1.99 per box of 4 bars, it’s also something of a bargain. I hope this is not one of the weekly specials and it finds a permanent place on the shelves. Calories 170 per bar Price $1.99 per box (4 bars in a box)

Will you be stocking and selling these again, especially the Almond, cashew and sea salt type. We eat gluten free and these were the best tasting and healthy bars we loved to eat.
I travel throughout the country and visited several Aldi stores. None had these bars available.
We do sincerely hope that you begin selling them again!

I am on the Jersey Shore (Ocean County, NJ), they fast became my favorite and just as fast are no longer on the shelves. I loved the simplicity and when in a pinch I could really be satisfied with them.
Where did they go? Surely others were loving them too?!
PLEASE bring them back to the Jersey Shore!

Yes sadly, they appear to have been a weekly special. Maybe they’ll be back some day?
