As an active person (working out 5 days per week), I am a huge fan of protein bars. I have tried expensive ones ($5 per bar) to cheaper ones (less than$2 per bar).
This "PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter" was quite pleasant surprise.
First, it is NOT a candy bar, so if you are expecting a Reese's peanut butter chocolate cup, don't buy this product. To me, it is a REPLACEMENT of candy bars. With only two grams of sugar, I am surprised how great this tastes. I have had better tasting protein bars, but their sugar levels were far more higher than this product. So I am very satisfied with not only taste, but overall nutritional value as well.
I will definitely go ahead and purchase it for pre-workout, post-workout, or "to-go" snack for myself.
I received two PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter bars free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club #gotitfree
I definitely prefer the peanut butter flavour to the lemon poppyseed, but I realized that the bad aftertaste is the artificial sweeteners they use instead of sugar. Keeping my sugar low is something that's important to me, so I do often use artificial sweeteners anyway, however, it really alters the taste in these bars. I prefer the texture of this chocolate peanut butter flavour as well because it has a sort of crunch similar to a rice krispie texture when you bite into it. The peanut butter flavour is not overpowering at all, in fact, it would be great to have it come through a little more. Again, I have to give it high marks for nutrition and value because it is fantastic that it includes 20g of protein! I will probably purchase these again and would recommend to friends and family looking for a post-workout boost!
PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter is a great protein packed snack.
I got this bar to sample for free, #gotitfree . It is very dense and filling for a mid day or post work out snack. It was a little bit chalky, however I enjoyed the peanut butter flavour over the Lemon-Poppyseed bar that I also received. I would buy this bar again to have on hand.
Usually when I eat protein bars it's because I don't have time to prepare or eat a full meal, but I still want that what I'm eating tastes good. In my opinion, this reduced sugar version tasted worse than the original one. I'd rather have real sugar in my protein bar than the weird taste of sucrose or artificial sweetener, this bar was just too sweet. Still a good source of protein and might be better for people who are trying to replace sugar in their diet, but personally it wasn't my favorite, at least the peanut butter balanced the sweetness a little bit, but overall I didn't like it.
I tried both of the flavors of this product, and I preferred the Lemon Poppy Seed.
This one is quite a mouthful.
It's dense and sweet, and you need some time to chew and swallow, if you are not drinking something at the same time.
Also, although it is only 2g of sugar, the taste is very sweet.
If you enjoy sweets, you may find this perfect, but it was a bit too candy bar for my taste.
Filling however, and good in a pinch if you need to eat and keep going!
PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar in Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter is perfect for my sweet tooth and to give me the energy I need. I usually struggle with energy, due to my health issues, but this protein bar has helped me overcome that. I feel full, satisfied, and I feel more energetic and for longer periods. The texture is lush, a bit like a 3 Musketeers bar, and is quite moist so it is easy to eat. A nice balance of flavours, and it really helps curb any sweet cravings. Contains 20g of Protein!! so keeps me full for hours. I would absolutely recommend these to anyone, since it is rarely that I find a protein bar that I like. I accidentally devoured the products before taking pictures of the bars themselves. So good!

I #gotitfree from Chick Advisor. I was pleasantly surprised with this bar. The texture is quite light, a nice change from other protein bars. I like that it was low in sugar. The flavor was ok, it had a mild "protein" taste but better than a lot of other bars. The size is great for an afternoon snack. I will buy this for sure in the future.
When I first took a bit my brain was thinking of chocolate & peanut butter. This really didn't taste like that but after a few bits, it was enjoyable for the most part. Usually, protein bars or powders have that vitamin taste, so I know what they taste like, not always the best but I know they are good for me. I found the bar was filling & even with reduced sugar I couldn't tell the different (if it had full sugar content)- so this is a good thing.
Recommend to family & friends looking for a power bar with less sugar.

This PowerBar is great for a snack before or after a workout or as part of breakfast. It's not too heavy. I prefer the lemon poppy seed flavour better. The taste is not bad & great if you like peanut butter. Thank you ChickAdvisor for letting me try this Protein Plus bar!
I love the flavour. I feel that there are too many carbohydrates in the bars. The flavour tastes like artificial sweetener. I prefer a bar with additional fibre. The amount of protein and calories is perfect. I would buy these again.
