Clif Bar Energy Bar, Cool Mint Chocolate, 2.4-Ounce Bars, 12 Count (Pack of 2) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)While they may not have the best appearance, they do have a remarkably
good taste that closely approximates "the real thing" in terms of
flavor. When you open the package, the aroma is also quite close to
the actual flavor.
I use to use PowerBars. These taste much better, and have more
nutritional value.
Since I often have to use these in lieu of a proper lunch and sometimes
even dinner (especially when traveling) I wish that they had 100% of the
various vitamins and minerals required each day. At least they have some
unlike other brands.
They do have a fair amount of fat, but at least it is not trans or saturated.
I do recommend these as the best choice of such "bars and supplements"
currently available.

Clif Bar Energy Bar, Chocolate Brownie, 2.4-Ounce Bars, 12 Count (Pack of 2) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)...energy bar on the market! I am impressed with all of ClifBar's products, especially this one, the Builder's Bar, and their Energy Gels.
The Energy Bars don't have as much protein as the Builder's Bar, and the protein is derived from soy rather than whey---and some people believe whey to be the much better quality protein. Personally I haven't seen any convincing data on that. Me, I use these bars more as a carb replacement right after a hard workout or run, since I get the replacement protein from drinking about 12oz of chocolate whole milk.
Where these CB Energy bars really stand out though, is when used as a pre-run or pre-workout meal. I have eaten one of these and then ran about an hour later, with no ill effects like gassiness or cramping---which goes to show how easily and quickly digestible this bar is, compared to other energy bars on the market (Powerbars are some of the worst, in my experience) which take a lot longer to get through your system because they are full of highly processed ingredients.
* ADDED 3/01/09: Wow, these bars are actually good to eat DURING a run, too...at around 250 calories, you are getting roughly the caloric equivalent of 2.5 gels plus they contain a little protein, which most gels DON'T have at all. I brought one of these along for a 17 mile, 2.5 hour run yesterday, ate 1/3 of it every 5 miles, had plenty of energy and zero stomach issues. Really goes to show just how easily digestible they are, and used like this, they are a very economical alternative to gels, plus less packaging goes into the local landfill!

Power Bar Protein Plus, Reduced Sugar, 2.47-Ounce Bars (Pack of 12) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I typically eat a protein bar every morning on my way to the gym. Chocolate-peanut butter is one of my favorite flavors, so I was expecting to like the chocolate-peanut butter flavor of Power Bar's reduced sugar line. Quite honestly, I was disappointed with this product. It doesn't have a lot of flavor and the texture is on the dry and gummy side. I like that it has 22 grams of protein and very little sugar, but the fat content is a little too high. The Pure Protein brand makes a similar low sugar bar that has almost as much protein but many fewer calories (The Power Bar has 270 calories; the Pure Protein about 200, depending on the flavor). I also much prefer the flavor and texture of the Pure Protein bars. To add insult to injury, the smaller Pure Protein bars -- the ones with a similar protein content to this product -- also cost less.

Clif Bar Energy Bars Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Clif Bars are high-density energy bars, designed to replace the fuel your body needs during demanding workouts. I use them during adventure racing, mountain climbing, and kayaking. They are excellent compared to all the other "power" type bars that are available. These are not "healthy snacks" for couch potatoes to smack on while watching TV. Do that and it'll end up on your butt! Used for the intended purpose, and when purchased fresh, these deserve the 5-star rating I've given.
I buy the variety pack at my local [...], and the price is lower than Amazon's gold box special price. The other advantage of purchasing food in a brick and mortar store is that you can verify the product expiration date. Several reviewers complained about this product being stale and/or out-dated. I've purchased other food products from Amazon and have also noted they are pushing close to the expiration date, meaning that one needs to consume a case of food within a week or two before it expires. Buyer beware.

Clif Bar Mini Energy Bars, Variety Pack 18 ea Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I ended up picking these up at a local health food store. Then I purchased the other variety pack, which had Chocolate Brownie, Chocolate Chip and Crunchy Peanut Butter. I had low expectations of this set due to the Oatmeal Raisin/Blueberry Crisp mini bars. Neither sounded particularly appetizing.
Well, I type this morning a changed man. The two mini bars I suspected would be the worst flavors were the best, while my wife and I agree that the Chocolate Brownie borders on inedible.
We pack lunches every day as part of a budget/weight-loss plan (thus, the mini bars), and on days I include a Blueberry Crisp mini Clif Bar, I am generally in a good mood and looking forward to lunch.
Perhaps I've said too much. Suffice it to say, I highly recommend this set of bars over http://www.amazon.com/Clif-Bar-Variety-Chocolate-Brownie/dp/B001GAOHFC/ref=pd_sim_hpc_2
Oh, and my 9 year old recommends them, too.

Fiber One Chewy Bars - Oats & Chocolate, 20/1.4 oz Bars Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)They are unlike any other granola bar because they are moist and taste just like a candy bar. They are packed with fiber, and are actually a pretty filling snack.
Definitely worth giving a try, especially if all you've had are the super dry health bars out there.

Kardea Banana Nut Bar 1.34oz 15bars - Heart Healthy, High Fiber, Lower Glycemic, Delicious Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I recently tried the Kardea Variety Pak of Gourmet Nutrition Bars, looking for a healthier alternative to my boring Kashi bars. I was pleasantly surprised how much I liked these, especially after opening the first bar and seeing a taffy-like texture. The proof was in the eating, though. All four flavors had good taste, even the Chai Spice, which I expected to taste lousy. I prefer the Banana Nut, and the Cranberry Almond was a close second. The consistency was chewy, but the bar left me with less of a food craving than the Kashi bars. The high fiber and nutritional elements put it over the top for me. Highly recommended!

Kardea Nutrition Wellness Bar, Chai Spice Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)Kardea Nutrition's chai spice bar is a great product. Really tasty, with a chewy texture that feels like it must be very high calorie (it's not -- these bars are only 150 calories!). The chai flavor is strong but also subtle; you can get a sense of the different spices and it is very sophisticated. The bar is vegan and made with natural ingredients, which I like, and has higher fiber and protein than many other bars (seven grams of each). It also has added plant sterols for helping manage cholesterol. While I don't have to watch my cholesterol, my husband does, and he is also happy to snack on these bars! I am glad to have found these wonderful bars.

Kardea Cranberry Almond Bars 1.34oz 15 Count - Heart Healthy, High Fiber, Lower Glycemic, Delicious Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)My husband and I started purchasing Kardea bars several months ago. The original reason for the purchase was to aid in lowing my husband's cholesterol. Kardea bars have now replaced other breakfast and power bars we previously purchased. For me cholesterol isn't a problem. Although, I do enjoy the bars, especially the Chi Spice with a cup of tea. Besides the great taste, the bars are low in fat and high in fiber. For anyone who follows Weight Watchers the bars are low in points. You feel like you're cheating when you're not!!

KIND PLUS Gluten Free Bars (Pack of 12) Review

Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)I was looking forward to receiving this order. Almonds, macadamias, and walnuts! Sounded delicious.
Then I tried one, and was puzzled. Yes, I could taste some almond, but WOW, the main flavor was PEANUTS. The ingredients list peanuts as the largest amount of nuts. This should be called the Peanut, Almond Bar. If one likes to have the main flavor of a nut bar as peanuts, you will enjoy this.
The quality of KIND products I appreciate, as well as the low GI, the natural properties, and having a healthier choice. But honesty in advertising and product would be appreciated.
I was disappointed with the deception, and the unexpectedly strong flavor of peanuts, as I purchased it for the nuts I like best, which were supposed to be the main source of nut protein.
Let's get honest KIND!
