This is a compressed date bar, but without the dark cocoa color it really looks sort of strange. This had a really tangy, almost overpowering zing when I bit into it. I'm not sure the lemon helps the case here; the plain date and cashew bar was really similar but didn't have the lemon taste getting in the way. I had sort of high hopes for this bar, and it seems quite nutritious and light, but there's just too much lemon flavor, I'd say. I wish the milder vanilla flavor came through a bit more. The lemon leaves a bit of an aftertaste which isn't really that tantalizing.
