Great protein; Not so great texture

I was really looking forward to the lemon and poppy seed flavour of these bars. Even though these have reduced sugar, they came off a bit overly sweet for my liking and the texture was not forgetable: the filling was so chalky. These bars are quite easy to chew and digest, although if you like to chew your food excessively, the filling sort of becomes shredded in your mouth, so it can be odd to those who have issues with certain food textures. The poppy seeds gave the bars a bit of crunch, which was nice with the filling being so soft.

I ate these bars in both the morning or evening as a treat or snack, especially before any type of long period of activity. I am not a huge meat eater, so having something like this to consume with a lot of protein really makes a difference to balance my nutrition. On occasion, I like to refrigerate nutrition bars, and while you can most certainly do so with this, it does become quite hard and difficult to bite. Eating one of these might cause you to have the product stuck in your teeth, so carry a toothbrush or mirror to check up when you're done.

I was offered to try this product complimentary thanks to ChickAdvisor.

My take on the Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed PowerBar

I recently tried both the Lemon Poppy Seed and the Chocolate Peanut Butter Protein Plus reduced sugar Power Bars as part of the product review program. I have to say I much preferred the Chocolate Peanut Butter flavour over the Lemon Poppy seed, but I generally am not a fan of lemon poppy seed anything. I think the Lemon Poppy seed flavour tasted a bit like candy. It didn't really taste like an actual Lemon Poppy seed cake. It did keep me fueled until dinner time (after a workout even!) and I love that there are starting to be more reduced sugar options out there. Looking forward to seeing what other flavours PowerBar will introduce.

Great bar

This bar was the perfect snack. I needed a quick snack at work when running to a meeting, this was satisfing and filled me up enough to stop the hunger. Love the light lemony flavour and I like that it's not overly sweet like so many protein bars. Would defiantly purchase this!

Not a lemon fan :\

I got to try this flavour for free :) Although I am not a lemon fan this was not too bad. I would not purchase again but I would share with a friend who may like the flavour.

Powerbar proteinplus reduced sugar lemon poppyseed

I really liked this bar. Contains no gluten so I can eat and enjoy pretend it's cake. Good nutritional value and satisfies you. Great snack or breakfast option. I would likely buy these. Reduced sugar but you don't taste a difference. Very good.

Perfect for the sweet tooth!

These taste like a lemon cookie! I'm not the biggest fan of lemon treats but I still really enjoyed these. The nutritional value is surprisingly very good for something that tastes exactly like a dessert. I would recommend trying, even though I'm more of a chocolat-y fan.

Thanks Chickadvisor!

Delicious snack!

I #gotitforfree to try and review. I received my package only a few days ago and was finally able to try them! My boyfriend took two and I took two. He absolutely loved them. I always look for a great bar with protein for days that I am super busy and on the go. I really enjoyed that this was not too sweet compared to other bars that are very heavy and sugary.

The lemon poppy seed was a nice light flavour. It tasted like a mini desert! I would definitely consider purchasing this in the future, if I see it in stores.

Sadly, I did not enjoy the taste of the ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed Power Bar. Maybe I was expecting too much from it because the picture on the package made it look delicious. It had a terrible after taste. I would not purchase this product.

Power Up with PowerBar Protein Plus Reduced Sugar Bars!

I loved the taste combination of the lemon and poppy seed, and getting reduced sugar treats after a workout is a HUGE bonus! I recommend that you add this to your gym bag or purse when you head out for the gym, or to a yoga class. SO filling and satisfying! Thank you ChickAdvisor and PowerBar! #gotitfree

Lemony goodness post run.

PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar is a great boost for me after my workouts. I got it free to try from Chick Advisor. You couldn't even tell that it was reduced sugar. It tasted good. It definitely had the slightly powdery taste that a lot of protein bars have though. The Lemon flavour worked better with this than the chocolate peanut butter flavour.
