Mid-Day Squares – The “Functional Chocolate” That Actually Delivers?

Mid-Day Squares – The “Functional Chocolate” That Actually Delivers?

Awake Eye 

👀 First Impressions: WTF Are We Looking At?

Mid-Day Squares is marketed as a “functional chocolate bar”—protein-packed, plant-based, and made with real ingredients. It’s positioned as the snack that bridges the gap between indulgence and nutrition, it stands out in the space by being refrigerated, a fresh take for snack bars and an important factor for those looking for premium, healthy options.

But does it actually live up to the hype?

✔️ First Take:


  • Packaging – Bold, fun, and different from the usual “health bar” look. Feels premium.
  • Price – ~$3.50 per bar (not cheap, but not crazy for high-quality ingredients). 2/$5 on Sale😎
  • Ingredients – No artificial junk, no seed oils, no sugar alcohols—already promising.
  • Texture & Taste – Soft, rich, and indulgent. Not a chalky “protein bar” disaster.

Mid-Day Squares comes in five different flavours: Cookie Dough, Almond Crunch, Peanut Butta, Brownie Batter, and the brand new Crunchy Peanut. We’ve been fans for a long time and have tried all the flavours (multiple times, just to make sure…). It’s hard to pick a favourite but Cookie Dough and Peanut Butta are strong contenders for top spot, with Crunchy Peanut coming in HOT🔥

They’re available both individually and in larger 12-packs. The Mid-Day Squares team also recently celebrated getting into Costco, crushing records along the way.


Performance: Does It Actually Work?


Taste – This isn’t some fake “health chocolate.” It tastes like real chocolate with a creamy, satisfying texture. No weird aftertaste.

Hunger Control – Kept us full for hours without a sugar crash. Legit snack replacement.

Energy Levels – Clean boost with no jitters, no crashjust real food doing its job.

Protein & Nutrition – Solid protein-to-carb ratio, high fiber, low glycemic impact.


This isn’t some Frankenfood “healthy” bar that’s secretly loaded with junk. It’s actual, functional fuel.


💀 The Dirty Secrets: What They Don’t Want You to Know

Now the fun part: Who owns Mid-Day Squares, and is there any shady history?

Independently Owned – This is a true small business. No Nestlé, no Unilever, no BlackRock creeping in the background.

Canadian-Made – Manufactured in Montreal, not some mystery overseas factory.

Ingredient TransparencyNO seed oils, NO artificial sweeteners, NO soy protein isolate.

High-Quality Sourcing – Organic chocolate, fiber from real food sources, plant-based protein.


Corporate dirt? None. No recalls, no scandals, no lawsuits.


If you’re looking for a small, ethical brand that actually gives a shit, Mid-Day Squares checks out.


🤔 Ethical Impact: Should You Even Give Them Your Money?

  YES. Unlike most so-called “healthy” bars packed with junk fillers and seed oils, Mid-Day Squares does it right. The company is family-run, doesn’t sell out to corporate interests, and actually engages with its customers in a real, unfiltered way.


They even show the behind-the-scenes chaos of running a business on social media. Total transparency.


This is a brand worth supporting—not just because they make a solid product, but because they actually stand for something.



🏆 Final Verdict: Should You Buy It?

  100% YES. If you want a real snack with actual nutritional value that doesn’t taste like punishment, this is it.


🔥 AWAKEWELLNESS RATING: HIGHLY RECOMMENDED 🔥

“It’s rare to find a brand that actually gives a damn. Mid-Day Squares is the real deal.”


🚨 Would we buy it again? Absolutely.

💀 Biggest downside? Price. It’s more expensive than your average chocolate bar, but let’s be real—this isn’t Hershey’s garbage. You’re paying for real food, not processed junk.
