kcuster83 1,504 Posted February 28, 2023 GUYS! This is by far THE BEST Protein Bar I have tried. This is the only flavor I have tried so far but I bought the Cookies and cream to try too. (200 cal, 20g Protein, 18 carbs) I have tried so many, some better than others but they all have that strong "protein" aftertaste. These ones BARELY have that aftertaste, almost not even noticeable. I buy singles (way more expensive) to try them and then buy the box if I like them. I can't even tell you how many brands and flavors I have tried. I like to keep them on hand in a pinch for a meal or even a snack sometimes. 3 GreenTealael, ThinIce and catwoman7 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
pintsizedmallrat 473 Posted February 28, 2023 I am always up for new Protein Bars to try! I recently discover Fulfill bars and they're great as well. 1 kcuster83 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SuziDavis 546 Posted February 28, 2023 How is the texture? I can't do the texture of more of the bars. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They are sort of soft and fluffy inside; less chewy than a Built Bar, but not grainy like a Dive Bar. They have great macros, and even come in a plant based version. My only complaint is that they are VERY sweet. I don't eat Protein bars much, but when I do its typically while I'm out and about and need something to replace a meal or carry me over between - these are SO sweet that sometimes they make me a little queasy.

Arabesque 7,414 Posted March 1, 2023 The mouth texture of so many is awful but I found if I keep the one I prefer in the fridge that Gummy almost gluey texture is better. 1 kcuster83 reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not as dense and has like a layer of what taste just like caramel layer covers in peanut pieces and all of it has the chocolate coating. 1 SuziDavis reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I instantly thought, "ooo with vanilla ice cream" LOL I'm such a fat girl. But then, I thought "frozen sugar free whip cream would be good too" .. so I guess my brain is trying...haha 3 summerset, Arabesque and summerseeker reacted to this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spinoza 1,452 Posted March 1, 2023 OMG these would be like the devil to me. Total trigger food, LOL. Each to their own though, hopefully we all know our limits at this point - enjoy! (they look absolutetely lush)!!! 😍 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
vsg2410 41 Posted March 2, 2023 Honestly I tried these and they did not live up to the hype! I MUCH prefer Aloha and NuGo. But everyone has their own taste and texture preferences! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
