Not kidding, this bar could change the world

Reviewed in the United States on April 27, 2024

Flavor Name: Sweet Cream 12 BarsSize: 12 Count (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

There is no other bar like this bar, at least not that I can find, and I have looked long and hard. At only 130 calories and with a taffy texture that slows you down, this bar makes eating is calorie deficit incredibly easy. The bars taste just as sweet as any bar with tons of added sugar, but they also have a creamy taste that makes them more satisfying. This is the only bar that I can find that is USDA organic, has so few net carbs (only 1 per bar!!!), and lacks GMO/overly processed ingredients (e.g. nut/seed oils). I contacted the company and the sunflower butter is simply whole sunflower seeds blended into a butter, no "processing". I sincerely hope they start making these bars again because I have lost so much weight using them. With 20g/130 cals they allow to you ingest sufficient protein to maintain muscle mass while losing weight. And the protein is as high quality as possible since it is complete animal protein with the optimal amount of leucine. If they don't eventually start reselling these I will actually try to make them myself at home for the reasons stated above, which I think speaks to how highly I regard these bars.

It is very chewy and sticky. I mean it gets stuck on the ceiling of your mouth and teeth. I wouldn’t recommend consuming it on its own! I ate it with some very dry nuts and hot tea and coffee; otherwise, it is quite the work to get it down. I love the flavor and simplicity of the ingredients. It is just not the right protein for grab and go.

A great bar for a promising diet.

Reviewed in the United States on August 23, 2018

Flavor Name: Sweet Cream 12 BarsSize: 12 Count (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

Totally disagree with all the posters that rate this negatively. This is about the best you can do with a whey bar that contains hardly any sugar. People saying they hate these... well no doubt 80% or more of them are just comparing it to really good bars that have at least 5x or more of sugar.

I can tell you right now, if you plan to lose weight you had better cut the sugar. People are terrible at dieting because they are addicted to sugar. Number one cause of any diet failure no doubt. 1g of sugar from Monk Fruit is contained in this bar. It has four total ingredients.

Yes, it is chewy, and it momentarily sticks to your teeth like a weak taffy, but it does not taste bad unless you are a priss bag. Learn to eat and enjoy things that don't always taste like something with 10g of added sugar. The fiber content alone in this bar is extraordinary: Prebiotic Tapioca Fiber accounts for a stunning 18g (72%) of your daily fiber needs. Sunflower butter rounds out the bar's taste profile, and I think overall it is an amazing bar. Organic ingredients and good grass-fed whey. No, it's not going to make you an addict like the bars mentioned below, and to be honest that is a good thing. I was freakin' addicted to sugary bars, and it was having an effect on my health.

Various nut butter bars and date bars that taste amazing like Organic Food Bars and Clif Nut Butters HAVE TOO MUCH SUGAR. If you can stomach something like Garden of Life powders, you can easily do a bar like this. Absolutely necessary for me at work and as an appetite and sugar suppressant. Of course you can't kill all your urges, but this bakery sure knows how to make a bar for people that are serious about getting healthier.

Not so good

Reviewed in the United States on February 24, 2017

Flavor Name: Sweet Cream 12 BarsSize: 12 Count (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

I wanted so much to like these bars. They have 20 grams of organic whey protein, with tapioca fiber, sunflower butter, and Lou Han Guo (Monk Fruit), and 19 grams of total carbs, with 18 of those from fiber, so there is 1 net carb! Great! However, after one bite they leave an disagreeable aftertaste like they have been loaded up with some kind of awful sugar substitute. I know the label lists "Lou Han Guo (Monk Fruit)" as the last of four ingredients, and this must be the sweetener used, but to me, the taste is horrible. I also hate the taste of diet sodas, or anything with stevia, sucralose, erythritol, aspartame, etc. I bet these bars would taste just fine if "Monk Fruit" was omitted. We don't need everything sweetened up! The organic sunflower butter is probably enough to make these bars palatable. I know Amazon would refund my money if I returned them, but I opened the box and ate one (well, part of one), so I'll just consider this a lesson learned. I'll stick with Rise Almond Honey bars (3 ingredients, 20 g whey protein, almonds, and honey); they taste great but have 20 grams of carbs (4 from fiber), and they are the best I have found so far. Raw Rev Glo Creamy Peanut Butter & Sea Salt are not as tasty as Rise, but they have 15 g protein, 17 g carb (3 net g carbs if you subtract 14g fiber), so they work for me, too.

Too sweet for me, but I'll buy them because they are clean.

Reviewed in the United States on December 31, 2023

Flavor Name: Sweet Cream 12 BarsSize: 12 Count (Pack of 1)Verified Purchase

They won't be my every day bar, because the monk fruit they put in there just isn't necessary and has a fake-ish sweet taste I don't like. I would just leave it out, but cutting it down some would help.

Honestly other than the excessive strange sweetness, I love the texture and flavor. I guess it is simple, but it just tastes sort of drinking milk after a bite of peanut butter sandwich (even though it's actually sunflower butter.

This could be the kind of bar I buy in massive quantity as a staple if they upgraded to a2 protein and removed or toned down the fake sweet.

At least monkfruit is natural, even if not my favorite sweet taste.

I think the manufacturer would be best off no longer trying to please the people who have tastes trained on candy bars and soda, and instead focus on us health nuts. We'll chew something sticky and accept blandness. We really will if you just trust us. Pumping fake sweet into it doesn't convince them it's any good, because they want a candy bar, and we just don't need it because we like the taste of plain food.
