There are many different functional foods out there in the world beyond the traditional protein bar, cookie, or milkshake-like protein RTD. Over in the United Kingdom and Europe you are treated to not just an extensive selection of flavors but also formats, where brands go deep into different shapes and sizes. Eatlean is one of those more unique and creative companies that makes a protein bar, although where it gets interesting is it’s a Protein Cheese Bar made entirely out of mature British cheese.
Like the food itself, Eatlean’s Protein Cheese Bar is very lean, providing 20g of protein per piece, 6g of fat, just 1.4g of carbohydrates, and a low 142 calories. The brand has now expanded its catalog with another cheesy innovation in the crispy bite-sized snack, Crunchy Cheese Bites. This one is a bag of small square pieces, of course, made from cheese, but baked cheese, giving it that crunchy consistency, all while still packing plenty of nutrition at 12g of protein a bag, 3.5g of fat, and under a gram of carbs.
Baked cheese pieces aren’t anything new; however, it is to Eatlean, and Crunchy Cheese Bites is right at home surrounded by the UK brand’s other cheese-based protein foods, keeping with the cheese theme, high protein, and convenient format. Directly through the brand’s online store, you’ll pay just £1.95 for a single 20g bag, or if you want to grab a few, five to be specific, there is a bulk bundle at £8.50, working out to £1.70.
