AllOutdoor Review: DEFI Crispy Superfood Bites – Snacking Everywhere

One of the most key elements in any good adventure in the outdoors, hunting trip, or day at the range are snacks. We need fuel to keep our days moving, and not packaged products that are going to slow us down or deliver a mid-day slog. All that being said, I’ve never read nutrition labels as much as I do now. What I put into my body needs to be delicious and equally nutritious. So, today, we are going to take a look at some DEFI Crispy Superfood Bites in 4 different flavors to see how they can support a healthy lifestyle. Let’s dive in!

What are DEFI Crispy Superfood Bites?

DEFI™ stands for Delicious Energizing Fitness Indulgence and combines real chocolate with functional ingredients like buckwheat and protein. DEFI crispy superfood bites are naturally gluten-free and grain-free as well as buckwheat having a ton of other benefits. Additionally, they also utilize clean, high-quality casein and whey proteins to provide a great combination of fast- and slow-absorbing proteins in their snack product.

Field Use – DEFI Crispy Superfood Bites

While you could travel with these snacks and enjoy them anywhere because they’re shelf stable, my use-cases might be a bit different from the average person (or maybe not at all). I would eat them before or after a workout depending on if I had enough calories taken in that day. I also used them as a mid-day snack while at work. I work retail at a gun shop during the day for stints of 10-12 hours, and these would be enough to curb my appetite until my next meal. Finally, I left a bag in my truck. So, if I had a busy day of travel, I could munch on them while driving.

Now, let’s dive into my thoughts, the general nutrition, and ingredients of each flavor that we are testing from DEFI Crispy Superfood Bites: Milk Chocolate, Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Crunch, Dark Chocolate, and Dark Chocolate Pink Himalayan Salt.

DEFI Milk Chocolate Crispy Superfood Bite

This first flavor – Milk Chocolate – I would imagine is the staple or mainstay of their product line. It is classic and simple. A one ounce serving gives you a pretty good macronutrient profile of 140 calories, 7g of fat, 13g of carbohydrates, and 7g of protein. The full ingredient listing looks something like this:

INGREDIENTS: Milk Chocolate (cane sugar, cacao butter, whole milk powder, cacao liquor, sunflower lecithin, vanilla bean), Sprouted Buckwheat, Whey Crisps (whey protein, tapioca starch), Casein Protein Powder. Contains Milk.

The Milk Chocolate flavor was faintly sweet with a tinge of peanut butter. Simultaneously, you can taste and tell that it is a “health treat” because it does not have a strong, sugary taste.

DEFI Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Crunch Crispy Superfood Bite

Next, we have the Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Crunch, which was easily my favorite of the four flavors we tested. This flavor has nearly an identical nutrition listing as the previous one with 140 calories, 7g of fat, 13g of carbohydrates, and 6g of protein (one less gram of protein). This also has a much stronger peanut butter flavor (unsurprisingly) with ingredients like dry roasted peanuts, peanut butter powder, and peanuts.

INGREDIENTS: Milk Chocolate (cane sugar, cacao butter, whole milk powder, cacao liquor, sunflower lecithin, vanilla bean), Sprouted Buckwheat, Casein Protein Powder, Whey Crisps (whey protein, tapioca starch), Dry Roasted Peanuts, Peanut Butter Powder, Pink Himalayan Sea Salt. Contains Milk and Peanuts.

Overall, this had a light taste of peanut butter (compared to milk chocolate), and you can feel the texture of the whey crisps along with different powders (whole milk, peanut butter, and protein). It still was my favorite flavor overall.

DEFI Dark Chocolate Crispy Superfood Bite

This Dark Chocolate flavor definitely lives up to its name. The chocolate was dark, bitter, and oddly enough, left you wanting to eat more and more. Not overly sweet – just faintly so. Your basic macros for this offering are 150 calories, 8g of fat, 12g of carbohydrates, and 7g of protein.

INGREDIENTS: Dark Chocolate (cacao liquor, cane sugar, cacao butter, sunflower lecithin, vanilla bean), Sprouted Buckwheat, Whey Crisps (whey protein, tapioca starch), Casein Protein Powder. Contains Milk.

This is the strongest flavored DEFI snack with the dark chocolate hitting your palette quickly and it lingering. If you have a big sweet tooth and need to indulge yourself, this might be your flavor as you don’t need to eat a bunch to have that flavor stay in your mouth for awhile.

DEFI Dark Chocolate Pink Himalayan Salt Crispy Superfood Bite

Last, but not least, we have the most intricate flavor in the Dark Chocolate Pink Himalayan Salt. A single ounce serving of this one (typically 2 pieces) has 150 calories, 8g of fat, 12g of carbohydrates, and 6g of protein.

INGREDIENTS: Dark Chocolate (cacao liquor, cane sugar, cacao butter, sunflower lecithin, vanilla bean), Sprouted Buckwheat, Whey Crisps (whey protein, tapioca starch), Casein Protein Powder, Pink Himalayan Sea Salt. Contains Milk.

This flavor I believe is superior to the standard Dark Chocolate because the sea salt addition is a nice balance of dark versus light, and sweet versus salty.

Final Thoughts

So, what are my final thoughts on all of the DEFI Crispy Superfood Bites in a Milk Chocolate, Milk Chocolate Peanut Butter Crunch, Dark Chocolate, and Dark Chocolate Pink Himalayan Salt flavor?… I enjoyed all of the flavors and they definitely were energizing and indulgent, just like the DEFI name implies (Delicious Energizing Fitness Indulgence). While none of them were particularly sweet, I liked all of the flavors because they gave me energy, didn’t crash my metabolism, and they are all moderately priced at $14.99 per bag. If anybody is looking for a healthy snack for their on-the-go lifestyle, these would be a great option to try.
