    A huge thank you to ChickAdvisor Team for send me the PowerBar in Protein+ reduced sugar creamy chocolate peanut butter to test out.

    I was quite skeptical about the PowerBar tasting good and being nutritious at the same time. When I got the bars I was quite eager to gobble it up right away - it's packaging reminds me a lot of a yummy chocolate bar. I quickly changed into my workout gear and I went for a 2k walk and 2k run and then nourished myself with one of these bad boys instead of drinking my chocolate whey shake. I love the soft, melty exterior texture and chew centre. Well thought out and it's something can can be savoured. The PowerBar is satisfying to eat - non-chalky, non-dry, consistent texture through out. It feels a bit like eating a naughty chocolate bar! One of these awesome-sauce bar is 200 calories with 20% of my daily recommended fibre intake.

    I shared the other chocolate bar with my brother who lifts and he said the PowerBar was surprisingly satisfying and satiating! We will certainly alternate our whey protein shakes and these bars into our diet.

    PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar in Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter was better than in Lemon Poppy Seed! It wasn't nearly as sweet as the Lemon Poppy Seed and I ate this one all at once. I did also have a hard time swallowing this one as well though. But I liked the flavor much better than the Lemon Poppy Seed and would be more inclined to purchase and recommend to a friend. I'm glad I #gotitfree to try as part of Chickadvisor!

    Subtle peanut flavour

    The Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter protein bar has a non-sweet chocolate coating. I hope the peanut butter would be a stronger flavour, but due to the order of the ingredients, there must not be too much. As a lover of peanut butter, it wasn't enough. I do like that it was not a heavy bar as most protein bars tend to be. Again, I am not crazy about the presence of palm oil because it has almost as much saturated fat as butter and is not good for you. One other thing that I didn't like was the aftertaste of sweetener.

    This item was received in exchange for an honest review from Chickadvisor.

    PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter is a delicious post workout treat!

    I loved the taste of this protein bar and it felt like I was eating a decadent dessert! I didn't find the taste of the protein powder too strong, which I find can often happen in protein bars. I also liked that the bar had 20 grams of protein. What I didn't like about this bar, was that even with only 2 grams of sugar, it still had 17 grams of sugar alcohol.

    I would recommend this protein bar to others if they were looking to have a treat. I would probably not buy this bar very often as it still has too much sugar and other unhealthy ingredients for my lifestyle.

    I enjoyed the opportunity to try this bar for free through ChickAdvisor!

    I loved how this tasted like cake instead of a power bar! It was so yummy! I loved the texture of it. I felt like I was eating dessert but with less guilt.

    Found this to be a bit chalky which is probably the protein powder base and the taste was a tad bit over powering compared to other protein bars on the market. Overall, not too bad.

    This protein bar does taste like a candy bar, but the artificial sugar taste is noticeable. It has only 3g of sugar but it has 17g of sugar alcohols, which I noticed make me a little bloated. I'd rather eat a bar with a little more 'real' sugar but no sugar alcohols, as those can be very unhealthy. But all in all, 20g is protein is enough to keep me full when I'm too busy to eat or before/after a workout.

    PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter tastes like a candy bar!

    This flavor truly tastes like a candy bar. The whey chalkiness is less noticeable in this flavor, if you are a pickier eater you will probably prefer this flavour over the Lemon Poppy Seed. You really don't feel like you are eating a protein bar, and it doesn't taste low sugar either; but it really does only have 2g of sugar. 
    I would not make this part of my workout routine because the ingredient list is too long, and I work out 4 times a week. I would consider it if I needed a snack because I was delaying a meal or something similar. 

    If the review was for taste only this bar would get a higher rating, but since it's marketed as a workout related snack I'm a little more conscious of the ingredients. That said, I would definitely buy these again, they're great to have on hand.

    The taste was good but it could have been more chocolatey in my opinion. I was very impressed with the 20 grams of protein but I wasn't impressed with the saturated fat content. Overall, I would reccomed this product for pre and post workout snacks.
