Good Flavour...but Not the Bar for Me

PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar in Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter was a decent protein bar but unfortunately not the right one for me. The flavour was on par with most protein bars but I try to avoid artificial sweeteners such as sucralose. Maltitol was a great choice though and I was happy to see that on the ingredients. I definitely preferred the peanut butter flavour over the lemon poppy seed. If you are looking for a reduced sugar protein bar and you are alright with sucralose, then this could be a good option for you.

Please Note: I was provided with a complimentary product from ChickAdvisor to test and review. #gotitfree

Not good

#gotiforfree with the review club. This was not very palette able she quite gross. I would not recommend this product or purchase it again. There are better reduced sugar options.

Not for me

I received PowerBar's ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter for free as part of the Chickadvisor Product Review Club for free in exchange for my honest review.

I so badly wanted to enjoy these! I've been looking for a quick grab and go breakfast that would keep my full so I had high hopes with this one. Another bonus was that they are gluten free and low in sugar.

Unfortunetly I am not a fan. First off the texture of these bars was not enjoyable. I found them to be very dry and chalky / gritty. The chocolate peanut butter was not as bad as the lemon flavour but I still wasn't impressed. this flavour also was not as sweet as the lemon so I did like that.

Another no go for me was how it made me feel. While these are low in sugar they do contain Sugar Alcohol, I found that these made me really gassy later in the day and I think it is from the Sugar Alcohols included. Definitely not a fun feeling.

I do have to say though that they did keep my full. I ate one in the car on my way to work and it did keep me satisifed until my lunch hour. Though I don't know that it was worth the having to force myself to eat it and the tummy problems later in the day.

I won't be eating these bars again.

Better taste than the poppy seed one

Thank you to chickadvisor for sending me these bars - #gotitfree !

I did a review for the poppy seed one in more detail, and even though my general thought is that I'm not a big fan of the texture / it was too soft and grainy, I think this one has a better overall taste as a protein bar.

They are ok bars

I #gotitforfree to try and review. I gave these bars to my boyfriend as he is a advid protein bar eater so this review will be from his perspective.

Taste was ok, not bad but not amazing either. I have had better tasting bars such as quest bars. It's got good nutritional levels and it did give me the energy needed throughout the day. Only gripe I have is that it gave me pretty bad gas. Maybe it was the fibre in it, I'm not sure but I was gassy they whole day after eating it. I would recommend it if your diet already has a nice amount of fibre in it since it wouldn't be so much of a jump in fibre content. All in all, not a bad bar!

Not my kind of bar

I was lucky to be chosen for the review of the creamy peanut butter power protein bar. but sadly i felt rather underwhelmed. I felt the flavor was lacking and it felt rather chalky. I was hoping for a chewy over chalky feel. I did enjoy that they where on the softer side as most bars i get are on the harder side. i wont be reaching for one of these over the bars sis currently eat.

Good for the first bite

The taste was amazing but the texture after chewing your second or 3rd bite wasn't very satisfying. All in all they're basically your average protein bar.

Would not purchase this personally

Just to be honest I love getting products from chickadvisor #PowerBarReducedSugar and #gotitfree.
However this product was just not for me. I have read reviews that some people liked it, some people didnt and I was one who didnt. I love trying new bars and such but this just had such an off texture to it and the taste was not my taste. The texture was like I had a mouth full of protein powder and it didnt give me much of a peanut butter flavor. However I was hungry and was at work so I ate this on the go and ate the entire thing, although everybite I took I didnt want another bite. I wouldnt personally recommend it but it is low sugar and has lots of protein.

Helps to reduce your hunger

I found that this product had a good taste. I'm not a huge fan of the taste of protein powder but, with the combination of peanut butter and chocolate it helped to mask that taste.

Too sweet

Even though the powerbar is supposed to be reduced in sugar, I fount it to be really sweet. I also didn't like how doughy it was. However the mixture of chocolate and peanut butter worked.
