PowerBar Harvest Energy Bars, Toffee Chocolate Chip, 2.29-Ounce Bars (Pack of 15)

This has been my favorite post-workout bar for probably 6 years - I only eat the Double Chocolate Crisp flavor though....can't stand the others! But the Double Chocolate is a wonderful flavor - tastes like real chocolate, in my opinion. Although it's labeled as a pre-workout meal, I prefer it post-workout.It has about a 4:1 ratio of carbs:potein, which is the ratio I look for after higher intensity training sessions. It's also one of the only bars I've tried that really and truly tastes good. Probably the best tasting chocolate bar I've found (Kashi makes a great Cinnamon Vanilla one, but not a great chocolate one, IMO).Also, the ingredients are fairly healthy. I try to eat as organically and naturally as possible (which isn't always possible!), but this one is pretty decent - not great, but decent. I still give it a 5 star, mostly because after all these years I still really look forward to eating this bar after working out!There's no grocery stores that carry this bar in my area - so thanks amazon for keeping this avaialble! Not sure what I'd do if this ever stops being made....

I like these (esp the Mixed Nuts) because they have less sugar than protein. So many bars out there nowadays have double the sugar than the protein in them and it's just not worth it to me.I originally went on the Belly Fat Cure diet which required you have 5g sugar per meal and no more. Some bars had 0g sugar and worked well but definitely did not taste as good as these. These have 7g sugar so it's a little bit of a compromise but definitely worth it for the taste.Note that this product contains soy though so take that into consideration. My doctor said soy can mess with the thyroid if ingested in large quantities.

I buy these by the box from my local grocer but the last two boxes were stale and too crunchy to chew.So, I purchased online after the PowerBar people told me this was probably a "storage irregularity on the part of the grocer".The box bought online was no different.I contacted the Powerbar Company and they sent a postage paid label to mail back the grocery-purchased box, which I did but am waiting to hear from them. They were courteous, prompt and very helpful.Upon inspection, I believe the problem is that they are making the bar smaller but the wrapper is the original size, which allows foran air-space, causing the texture of the bar to become impossible to bite into.Have used these bars for years, I hope they can get the quality control end of things worked out.

PowerBar has changed to a "New!" recipe and not for the better in my opinion.They have also decreased the size of the bar from 2.29 oz to 1.76 oz without a corresponding decrease in price, so you now get 2 for 1!A product of lesser quality and also of greatly decreased price.It is still a palatable bar, but nowhere near the quality of what they were making just a few month ago.I left feedback directly with the manufacturer, but they seemed to be less than interested.

I have a tendency to run late for work or to skip meals so I was looking for a convenient meal bar that I could use. I was attracted to this particular product because it included a fair amount of protein, vitamins and minerals and fiber. The double chocolate taste sealed the deal. I really like the taste of these bars and the fact that I can use them as a meal replacement.The only problem is that they are very chewy. I actually like that, but I did break off a crown while eating one of the bars. Before I even said anything, the dentist asked me if I was eating something chewy or sticky when it happened. Didn't know that chewy/sticky foods were hard on crowns.They are hard to find now in stores, so I've found that Amazon is the best place to buy them.

This is a great product. However, the subscription process on Amazon leaves some to be desired.I love the concept and am trying it once again even after saying "Never again" over trying toget the subscription for this product cancelled. ... for months... and then getting a forcedpurchase - delivery that I found out about by seeing the charge show up in my online bankstatement and a few days later on my door step. Automated shopping is supposed to be EASIER.Having to repeatedly address this sort of snafu is what sends many shoppers back to thebricks/mortar stores.

In general, I despise "energy" food. Be they drinks like Rockstar or bars like Powerbar Protein Bars, I hate them all because they taste bad, fake. However, my friend introduced me to this particular flavor of PowerBar Harvest Whole Grain Energy Bar expressly because she knew I hated the dry granola consistency of Kashi, NutriGrain, and Luna bars.This taste so yummy I have to refrain myself from eating more than one at a time. I buy these things a box at a time and savor every bite. They're sweet without being overwhelming, filling, chewy, have a hint of spices, and never fail to make my tummy happy. I've tried the other flavors of Harvest Bars, but none of them come close to the Oatmeal Raisin Cookie (a very impressive feat considering I usually prefer chocolate things to oatmeal raisin things).I highly recommend these for people who want a healthy snack alternative that actually tastes good while delivering some essential nutrients and vitamins.

Ever since they discontinued my favorite Kashi breakfast bars, I've been looking for a suitable substitute. Although I haven't found anything quite as complete and cost effective as what I was buying, these are a close second. I'm not a morning person and often don't leave time to eat breakfast. These have enough protein and fiber to satisfy me for several hours until lunch time (but might not for a large man) and I can't get too cranky about paying less than $1.50 for a meal (using subscribe&save). This flavor is tasty and there are several other flavors I can rotate to decrease boredom.
