Performance nutrition has finally taken a cue from wine and cigars: energy-bar-of-the-month clubs. A small collection of upstart companies will send a monthly care package—often personalized to your sport or taste preferences—directly to your door, eliminating last-minute grocery-store runs and giving you the chance to sample a range of different items. Here are the best we’ve seen.
Kona Kase
Each box comes with a selection of bars, gels, and granola, as well as nutrition and training tips. $15 per month.
YouBar
With its VIP program, you get biweekly, triweekly, or monthly shipments of 12 energy bars you create yourself from more than 50 ingredients. From $38.
NatureBox
This monthly package, which changes regularly and includes items like honey mesquite almonds, fresh vegetable chips, and whole wheat raspberry-fig bars, makes healthy snacking a cinch. $20 per month.
