    Who can say no to chocolate and peanut butter? This is a classic protein bar flavour but formulated with less sugar. I prefer less sweet products and this was great. Energy bars are still on the expensive side. Buying a large package yields some savings but I don't want to get sick of eating just one flavour so I rather buy them individually to make sure it stays fresh.

    PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter.....needs some sugar.
    I find protein bars are either a hit or miss. PowerBar definitely missed the mark on this one. While the peanut butter was better than the lemon poppy seed it still wasn't great, not even good in fact. I wanted to like them due to the nutritional benefits and the great source of protein but I could not get pass the taste and the after taste. I would describe it as chewing on chalky paste. If you're looking for just a boost of protein for a workout and flavors don't matter much then I would definitely recommend PowerBar protein Bars. However if you like to enjoy the taste of the food you eat then this is one I would skip.

    I ate a PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter before going to the gym to do some cardio and it gave me the energy and nutrients that I needed for my run. The taste was good too, you couldn't really tell it was a protein bar. I would purchase this product in the future.

    Powerbar Protein Plus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter gave my husband a pick up for that afternoon slump!

    I'm not personally a fan of peanut butter, so I gave them to my husband for work. He loved them, and with it being reduced sugar, I think it's a great snack to have on a work break, before the gym, or just whenever you need a little boost (or want a yummy snack)
    Depending on the price of these bars I would probably buy them again, and I would recommend them mostly to those who are worried about sugar intake.

    I got a free sample of this product in exchange for an honest review. I got to try the chocolate peanut butter flavour along with the lemon poppyseed. I have to say that I enjoyed the chocolate peanut butter one very much. The texture was interesting, I want to say it was almost more like a dense cake-like texture rather than a granola bar, which is more what I was expecting. The flavour was great, very chocolate and very peanut butter. I think you could tell from the texture that it was a protein bar, but otherwise it really was more like a chocolate bar than anything. I would eat it as a snack anytime. At 200 calories for the bar, it is roughly equivalent to a chocolate bar, except it has tons of protein. I'm not sure how much they cost, but I would eat it again for sure!

    Having never had the PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter, I was pleasantly surprised by the taste. It is definitely something I'll be getting at the store.

    I should disclose right off the bat that I am a Registered Dietitian and I do not typically turn to protein bars as a first resort when trying to fuel up. With that said, everyone has had that crazy day where they JUST fit in a workout but do not have 1 extra second to make a snack or meal, let alone have time to sit and eat it...in those moments, I have reached for a protein bar. Before trying this bar, I took a peek at the ingredient list and unfortunately it is quite lengthy, which is not uncommon of a product like this, but I just think of foods with more than a handful of ingredients as "sometimes" foods. There is also quite a bit of artificial sweetener, and the sodium content is a bit high for my liking. It does have a whopping 20g protein, and 5g fibre which is great. Moving on to taste: I am always worried that sugar-free products will have that "artificial" taste and even though I could tell this protein bar contained sweeteners, they do a good job of making the flavour taste true to the name. The bar was very creamy, and had a melt-in-your-mouth quality which I enjoyed. It was also extremely filling- I ate half the bar and felt completely satiated. so I saved the other half for later. Overall, in keeping with my general rule, I wouldn't include this in my daily routine. However, in a pinch, I can definitely see myself grabbing this product to re-fuel after a workout on a super busy day.

    The PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter bar is very tasty and you can't even tell it's reduced sugar! The taste is amazing.
    The inside has nice fluffy peanut butter with little crunchy bits in it and is covered with a light chocolate coating.
    This is one of the best protein bars I have tried! It will be one of my go to protein bars from now on.

    This definitely packs a punch!! I saved this item right for after my long run. The bar was the perfect texture, not too hard, but not too softy, just the right balance of chewy. It's also very rich in flavor and did it's job of filling me up and not having to eat another snack on top of it. The only thing is that although it is already reduced sugar, I actually found it a little bit too sweet still. But otherwise, a great bar! #gotitfree

    This bar was quite tasty for a protein bar. It was soft and chewy . It could have been a bit more moist, but with 5g of fibre and 2g of sugar don't expect it to be as moist as a chocolate bar. It also had more flavour than other protein bars that I have had in the past.
