We're all trying to eat well and exercise, but sometimes life gets a little hectic and we can't always eat the way we want to.

Whether you're grabbing it as a quick snack before your morning run, or an energy boost mid-afternoon, protein bars are a super convenient way to get a healthy boost of energy. While there are plenty to choose from, one of the most popular brands Clif Bar & Company makes healthy, organic energy bars.

The well-known organic foods brand has a variety of energy bars tailored to women, children and other markets.

Recently, Clif announced a massive recall of three of its protein bars. Turn to the next page to learn more about the specifics and see which bars are affected.

Clif Bar & Company recently recalled three of its protein bars after receiving multiple customer complaints that they had experienced allergic reactions to peanuts or tree nuts, including almonds, Brazil nuts, cashews, hazelnuts, macadamia nuts, pecans and walnuts.
