We Tried and Ranked Every Classic Brain + Body Fuel MOSH Bar Flavor
Ever since being introduced to Maria Shriver and Patrick Schwarzenegger's brain-fueling MOSH protein bars early last year, we've been hooked, and with a brand new reformulation this summer, they're even better.
While MOSH packs 12 grams of protein per classic bar, they also go the extra mile with the inclusion of vitamins D3 and B12, plus Omega-3's and adaptogens like lion's mane and ashwagandha, as well as Cognizin citicoline, a naturally occurring nutrient that's critical in various brain functions. We love the way they make us feel, as well as the great taste, and below, we taste-tested and ranked all seven of their non-vegan flavors, from tasty to tastiest.
7. Chocolate Brownie Crunch
We'll start by saying that, for being at the very bottom of this list, MOSH's Chocolate Brownie Crunch is quite good. It's definitely chocolatey, with a hint of saltiness offsetting the sweetness for a classic brownie effect, with crunchy bits for added texture. The only reason it ranks this low is that the flavor gets pretty same-y once you've eaten half of the bar, making it less satisfying to finish if you tend to nibble on protein bars, like we do.

6. Peanut Butter Crunch
Peanut Butter is another great flavor, but again, it doesn't offer much in variety. They do get the peanut butter flavor just right, with a nutty richness in every bite, and crunch to mix things up. There are simply much more exciting flavors ahead.

5. Cookies & Cream Crunch
Here's where the flavors start getting really good. MOSH's Cookies & Cream Crunch has a bar infused with sandwich cookie cream sweetness and wonderfully chocolate, crunchy cookie pieces throughout, so every bite is reminiscent of snacking on an Oreo, with may more benefits.

4. Cookie Dough Crunch
This bar really does taste like cookie dough. It's wonderfully buttery and sweet, with both crunchy bits and chocolate chips dotted throughout to really sell the experience. If anything, it might be a bit too decadent for those who don't want a dessert-like experience.

3. Peanut Butter Chocolate Crunch
The Brownie and Peanut Butter flavors may have ranked toward the bottom of this list, but put them together, and you've got a real winner. It's just a classic flavor combination that's rich, nutty and chocolatey but not too sweet, with the right variety of flavors and textures to make it all too easy to scarf down.

2. Lemon White Chocolate Crunch
MOSH's Lemon White Chocolate Crunch is unlike anything else in the lineup—or other protein bar lineups, for that matter. The lemon flavor is vibrant and tart, offset by the sweet white chocolate and perfect crunch to make it feel light, with a summery flavor we can get behind.

1. Blueberry Almond Crunch
Perhaps you can tell that we're all about MOSH's fruity flavors, because their Blueberry Almond Crunch is our all-time favorite. It has just the right combination of fresh blueberry flavor—like biting into a blueberry muffin—with the almonds serving as the perfect complement.
