Parent company: Kellogg's / WK Kellogg Co.

About RXBAR

RXBAR is a protein bar brand acquired by Kellogg's in 2017, known for its minimalist transparent labeling that lists only whole-food ingredients on the front of the package (dates, nuts, egg whites). It is sold at grocery chains, natural food stores, and mass retailers across the US. RXBAR is positioned as a clean-label, high-protein option with no artificial ingredients.

Common concerns with RXBAR products

RXBAR is one of the cleanest mainstream protein bars available, using dates, nuts, egg whites, and dark chocolate as primary ingredients without artificial preservatives, colors, or sweeteners. Some chocolate-flavored varieties contain alkalized cocoa (Dutched cocoa) which can produce 4-MEI. The main nutritional concerns are high sugar from dates and high sodium in some flavors. A genuinely clean-label option in the snack bar category.
