General Thoughts

I wish these were more accessible, since they're very tasty. Price is reasonable, and so are macros on most of them. The ingredients and sweetners of choice definitely aren't clean. I would consider this more of a candy-bar-craving replacement than a protein bar.

Price

These are not only always available for slightly more than $1/bar at Costco, but are very frequently the cheapest at regular stores (I see 5 bars for $5-8 all the time). 13/15.

Fullness Factor

These aren't very big (46g) and are honestly low in fiber (most have 1g). They don't tell to keep me very full. 10/15.

Flavors

Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough









  • Nutrition: Mediocre at best. With 16P/210 Cals, a lot of saturated fat (8g), and enough sugar alcohols to give a horse gastric distress (8g), 21/35. (Also, if you care about "natural" ingredients, don't buy this lol)
  • Taste: I loved this, but it's no surprise with the macros. 32/35.
  • Overall: 76

Chocolate Peanut Butter


  • Nutrition:  Better, with 16P/190Cals and only 4g of saturated fat. 25/35.
  • Taste: Tastes like real peanut butter, and you can definitely taste the real peanuts in here. If i wanted to scratch a crunchy peanut butter itch, this would be my go-to. 31/35.
  • Overall: 79

Peanut Butter and Jelly





  • Nutrition: Identical to Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, but with less sugar. 22/35.
  • Taste: I don't understand this. The peanut is very artificial, but somehow it just works, and it's fucking amazing. This scratched an itch I didn't even know I had. 32/35.
  • Overall: 77

Mint Chocolate Chip



  • Nutrition: Identical to Chocolate Peanut Butter. 25/35.
  • Taste: This was a mild mint, which I enjoyed (since most attempts on mint are too minty IMO). It tasted more like a mint cookie, which was delightful, but not exceptional. 29/35.
  • Overall: 77

Strawberry Strudel


  • Nutrition:  Identical. 25/35.
  • Taste: Woah! This was surprisingly very good. It's a very creamy strawberry, and it has a much less chewy texture than their other bars. I really really liked it! 32/35.
  • Overall: 80
