This was a great pick-me-upper after a work out!
The overall packaging was appealing. The texture was very cake-like. The lemony flavor was a great boost after my workouts; just the right amount of protein.
Great Protein Bar
I liked the taste of the lemon and poppyseed. The mix tastes so good wish it had more poppyseeds just because I love them!! It definitely gave me that pick me up and made me feel able to continue throughout my day.
Lemon PS..yes please
The Lemon Poppy Seed was a bit different taste wise than the PB/Chocolate combo. It had a slight medicinal taste to it. But I was ok with it. The hint of lemon and the poppy seed was enough for me.
I prefer a bar than honking down on a meal before working out and the bar is enough, no sugar rush to the head and I liked the taste. It does not taste like a candy bar (some other protein snacks def do).
Big pros to this bar is the Gluten Free status, the additional protein and the lack of sugar content.
I have a sweet tooth, but even I have my limits when it comes to protein/health bars. I like to know I am eating to help my body thrive during the day. I would purchase the Lemon Poppy seed if it came in a combo pack, but it would not be my first choice based on the slight medicinal taste to it.
Like the chocolate peanut butter it has a chalky texture that you notice quite well after the first bite. The taste is amazing but other than that it feels like eating a chalk stick.
Great flavour idea for a protein bar
I received this product as part of the ChickAdvisor product review club. I love the idea that this bar has low sugar, tons of protein, and only 5 weight watchers points. I also love the idea of the flavour - lemon poppy seed is a super unique flavour. The only problem is that the flavour taste's very artificial and gritty, not at all like I expected. I still enjoyed this bar, but it could use improvement.
Really didn't like the taste!
I got this for free as part of the product review club from ChickAdvisor.
I really didn't like the taste of this bar. I didn't find it very lemony, just very artificial sweet. The texture wasn't great either, it was powdery. The nutritional breakdown is quite good but you can get the same with the much better tasting PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy Chocolate Peanut Butter version. Definitely do not recommend this flavour.
Lemon poppy seed PowerBar kept me energized and fulfilled.
I usually don't like lemon flavoured power bars because they tend to be too over powering but I actually enjoyed this one. The taste is light and simple and the texture itself is smooth and creamy. I usually go for chocolate peanut butter anything but this one was quite pleasing and didn't pack too much sweetness. The amount of protein was the perfect amount to keep me energized during my training session at lunch and carry me through until dinner. I am accustomed to stocking my cupboards with protein bars and I think I may just add this one to my roster.

Not my favourite protein bar
I was given this to sample as part of the product review club and I wasn't really a fan of the flavour. The texture was a bit chalky so it wasn't for me. That being said, it was a good bar to eat for breakfast and did keep me full even though I wasn't big on the flavour. I would be interested in trying other flavours from the same brand.
Nope Nope Nope
I recieved the ProteinBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed from ChickAdvisor in exchange for my honest opinion and honestly, I really really really wanted to like it. I know and trust the brand PowerBar and I purchase their products regularily. I also really love lemon poppyseed as that's my all time favorite muffin flavour! I've always said "protein bars are glorified chocolate bars" so I was excited when this line came out which would give me all the normal protein but with less sugar! Fail.
It tastes good after the first few bites until you stop chewing it and get a weird aftertaste. Almost like what you would find in an artificial sweetner. Hmmm. The texture was also a bit dry but as someone who eats protein bars on the regular I know that most are chalky and dry as they are packed with protein powder. They are cheap but personally I wouldn't stray from my usual flavours of PowerBars to pick this up instead. The flavour is just not there. I can't see this flavour lasting long and doing well with consumers.
Odd after taste.
When I first bit into it the taste was promising but as I chewed, the texture started to taste like I was eating protein powder with a taste of lemon. I'm usually a fan of lemon poppy seed but not this time. I like the chocolate protein bar much better!
