## Store description

Eat one of these and get a boost of energy! Fills up your stamina more than you can just by taking a rest!

The **Energy Flavored Zesty Bar** is an inventory item that is found in random places in the *Baldi's Basics* series.

## Description

The Energy Flavored Zesty Bar is a chocolate bar with a purple, white, and green wrapper that is peeled halfway off. ½ of the wrapper is green, ⅜ is white, and ⅛ is purple.

## Usage

### Main gameplay

Right-clicking or pressing the "Use item" key (`Q` by default) with the Energy Flavored Zesty Bar selected gives the player a stamina boost. The Staminometer's needle will not be shown right after using it, but after using the stamina, the needle will slightly move to the left.

It is best to use this item when the player has many notebooks as Baldi is a lot faster, which means they must have as much stamina as they can so they can run from Baldi easily.

### Challenges

* In the Stealthy Challenge, the Energy Flavored Zesty Bar is one of two items to use, along with the Dirty Chalk Eraser. The player can use the Zesty Bar to quickly get away and hide from the Principal of the Thing clones.
* This item is also available in the Speedy Challenge as well, found in both faculty rooms and Zesty machines.
* This item is absent in the Grapple Challenge as the player cannot move without a Grappling Hook.

## Locations

### General

The Energy Flavored Zesty Bar can be found in various ways:

* It is randomly located in a faculty room.
* Using a Quarter to buy one from the Zesty machine.
* Completing a field trip.
* Purchasing it for 50 You Thought Points at Johnny's Store.

### Endless Mode - Medium

## Other appearances

* In *Baldi's Basics Classic*, there are only two free Energy flavored Zesty Bars, one in the cafeteria and one in the faculty room that connects another. It can also be purchased from the Zesty machine that is found in the faculty room with lots of red lockers and a lunch table.
* In *Baldi's Basics Birthday Bash*, the Zesty Bar can randomly be found in presents or Crazy Item machines.
* In *Baldi's Basics Classic Remastered*, the Zesty Bar spawns on the same locations in *Classic* and *Birthday Bash*. It can be randomly found in the cafeteria and faculty rooms in Demo Style.
* In *Baldi's Basics - Field Trip demo: Camping*, the item is obtained when successfully completing the demo with 25,000 or more points, along with the BSODA and Baldi's Least Favorite Tape. Although, the player cannot use the items as the demo skips to the Kickstarter promotion screen.
* In *Baldi's Basics Full Game Early Demo*, one Energy Flavored Zesty Bar is found in the playground. It can also be purchased from the Zesty machine located outside of the Principal's office and in the hallway with the BSODA machine and the roto-hall.

## Trivia

### General

* The word "zesty" is actually a word used for describing a portion of food to have a strong, pleasant, and citrus-like flavor.
	+ In addition, it is confirmed in the credits that the "zesty" name was requested by Joshua Valent during the production of *Baldi's Basics Classic*.
* The bar, as confirmed by mystman12, is a Kirkland Signature protein bar. The reason the wrapper appears green is that he took a picture of it in front of a green screen and the foil reflected it.
* The reason why the player can still run after eating an Energy Flavored Zesty Bar without losing stamina is that it does not actually refill their stamina. It sets the stamina to 200%, whereas normally the max stamina would be 100%, meaning the player has double stamina. Notebooks also only fill the stamina to 100% if the player's stamina is less than 100%, so they will not refill any stamina if the player has eaten an Energy Flavored Zesty Bar, but not running until the stamina becomes less than 100%.
	+ In *Baldi's Basics Classic* and *Birthday Bash*, it is much difficult to figure out how much stamina is left after using this item since the stamina bar displays as full (100%) until they have 100% stamina or less.

### *Classic*/*Birthday Bash*

* The word "Flavored" for the item's name lacked its capitalization. This was changed in *Full Game Early Demo*.

### *Baldi's Basics Classic*

* Prior to V1.1, there was no Energy flavored Zesty Bar in the cafeteria on the table in the corner.
	+ Additionally, eating it would make the player guilty of "No eating" for 3 seconds. It was changed to 1 second before it was no longer against the rules.
* Prior to V1.3, eating an Energy Flavored Zesty Bar near Principal of the Thing resulted in detention as he said "*No eating food in the halls!*" and tried to chase the player.

## Glitches

### *Baldi's Basics Plus*

* Prior to V0.1.5, if the Energy Flavored Zesty Bar was eaten while inside a blue locker, the stamina would not regenerate until the player exited the locker.
