These are great!
The Lemon poppy seed flavor protein bar was awesome. It was like a nice treat, but one that's good for you!! I love high protein snacks that are quick. I'm a busy working mom of 2, and after a workout it's nice to have something to just grab on the go when I need to.
Yum!
Great for on the go or for a meal replacement. And they were so lemon-ey!!! Sooo yummy. I can't wait to taste the peanut butter ones!! They did still have a bit of a grotty texture to them but that's nothing new in the protein bar world.
Not a taste or product for me, would never buy in the future
The Lemon Poppy Seed variety of PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Creamy did not offer a very appealing taste, which was partially a result of the reduced sugar nature of the bar. Also, despite the high amount of protein in the bar, per the product's nutritional information. it did not leave me feeling very full. On account of this and the fact that I don't really have the need for such a product in my day-to-day life, I would not buy this product in the future.
Great Product for Active Lifestyles
I had the opportunity to try this product for free through ChickAdvisor's Product Review Club. I am a fairly active person who strives to incorporate an aspect of physical activity into every day. I also try to eat well on a regular basis. My diet consists mainly of fresh fruits and vegetables and lean protein with little to no carbs. I also try to reduce my sugar intake wherever possible. With a busy, active and on-the-go life-style, I plan my meals and snacks ahead of time to ensure that I am maintaining a healthy diet.
I currently use protein bars in my diet as a meal or snack alternative when on the run. I like the high protein content of this product along with the reduced sugar. The product has a nice airy texture. Although the taste was good, it wasn't my favourite as I found it was too much like dessert. I enjoyed this product in lieu of breakfast before an intense workout and found that it kept me satisfied. I think that the only thing I could complain about would be the travel-ability of this product in the summer since it has a creamy coating. It probably isn't something that I want to leave in the car! I would definitely consider purchasing it in future, but probably a different flavour.
Good flavor, but made me want to puke.
Okay, so I'm not sure if it was just me or this bar. I was headed out to the gym early this morning, and my stomach was growling as I left the house, so I grabbed this bar to satisfy my hunger. I'm not sure if it was me or my empty stomach or these bars, but almost immediately after I felt sick. I almost didn't go to the gym (but glad I did!)
The flavor was okay. Not as good as the chocolate and peanut butter one, but one I wouldn't mind for a quick snack. Just make sure you check your teeth after: I had quite a few poppy seeds in my teeth after!
I guess I need to try it again sometime just to see if it was just a bad day for me. I will edit this post once I have tried another one. I just hope I don't feel sick again!
But on the plus side: less sugar means I can eat something else sugary during the day and not feel as guilty ;)

Unique flavour but tastes great!
I got this product to try for free from chickadvisor, I really enjoyed it!
I was very excited to try PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar in Lemon Poppy Seed flavour, It's one of my favorite flavour combinations but I've never seen it in protein bars before. The taste was great, i think slight sourness of lemon really masks the normal "protein bar" taste which sometimes can be unpleasant. I was very impressed with taste especially considering it's only 3 g of sugar! I used to do keto diet and I remember how hard it is to find something with low sugar vs low fat, so this is definitely a great product, especially if you are watching your sugar intake.
Energy wise it was pretty satisfying, i had it after my workout and i felt like it restored some energy. It's only 200 kcal so it's not a meal substitute, but great for a quick energy restore meal.
Protein Loaded!
I received the PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed bar for free as part of the ChickAdvisor Product Review Club opportunity. I am always on the look out for a protein bar that is tasty and not full of sugar. Most of the bars on the market are high in protein, but also high in sugar. The majority of bars also taste like you are eating chalk! I found the flavour of this bar to be pretty sweet, despite it having only 3 grams of sugar. Given that it has 20grams of protein this would be something I would have on hand when I don't have time for a meal and need something to fill me up. Price is fair as far as protein bars go and I would by it.
good and yummy
The power bar protein lemon poppy seed, was really good but I'm more of a chocolate person so I enjoy more the chocolate, but this one was really good too and tasty
Not my favourite
I received this product as part of the review club. My job can get hectic and I like having a protein bar in my bag for those days where lunch is just not going to happen. I was impressed by the nutrients and low sugar content but the consistency of the bar was too dense for me. I did like the poppy seeds being throughout. I probably would not this again.
Yuk!
I got this product to try for free from chick advisor. I normally love things that are lemon and things that are poppy seed, but this was something else. I regretted biting into it on my first bite, the texture was awful so was the taste. I thought ok maybe my taste buds are off today, so I tried it again the next day.. Nope, had to spit it out, couldn't get more than a bite in. Very disappointed with the taste, and texture and will definitely not be trying again.
