Fodbods Review: The Snack for When You Want to Feel Healthy (But Still Actually Enjoy Life)
Note: I was gifted these products by Fodbods, but all opinions are my own.
Finding a snack that’s gut-friendly, genuinely healthy, and doesn’t taste like sadness is basically the holy grail when you’re living with IBD.
(Or honestly, just living life, full stop.)
So when Fodbods sent me some of their snacks to try, I was curious.
Would these be another "health bar" that ends up feeling like chewing on a doormat?
Or could this actually be something I’d keep in my bag for the days when I’m trying to be a functioning adult?
First Impressions
The branding?
Super cute. Super clean.
Big tick for not making it feel like you’re eating sad diet food.
The ingredients list?
Even better.
Fodbods are:
- Certified low-FODMAP (for anyone navigating gut issues)
- Gluten-free
- Plant-based
- Gut friendly
- ALL natural ingredients
- Free from all the usual suspects that can wreak havoc (looking at you, artificial sweeteners 👀)
Honestly, love when you can pronounce everything on the label without needing a chemistry degree.
Taste Test Time
Flavour-wise?
They did good.
The bars are naturally sweet, not "fake sweet" (if you know, you know).
The chocolate chip and peanut butter vibes definitely made me feel like I was eating something fun, not just "being healthy."
Texture on the bars?
I’ll keep it real: a little dense for me. Not bad, just personally not my absolute fave but honestly, when you're aiming for gut-friendly and actually-nourishing, that's the trade-off I'm happy to make.
But THEN —
I tried the Dark Chocolate Nibbles...
AND OMG.
Game changer.
They’re actually delicious, like, would-eat-them-on-purpose delicious.
Perfect size, perfect flavour, not too sweet but still feels like a treat.
(And absolutely a vibe for when you want something quick, easy, and not filled with dodgy ingredients.)
Would I Get Them Again?
✅ On a day when I’m trying to treat my body like I love it?
Absolutely.
✅ Would I stock them for low-FODMAP days when I want to stay symptom-friendly?
For sure.
✅ Would I stash the Dark Chocolate Nibbles in my handbag immediately for snack emergencies?
Without hesitation. ✔️
Overall Fodbods nailed the balance between "healthy enough to trust" and "yummy enough to actually want."
