tastes like a muffin

I received this product to review for free.
I love lemon anything so was excited to try this protein bar.
The first bite was great. It reminded me of eating a lemon poppy seed muffin, which is always a treat.
There was no after taste.
I liked that there isn't a lot of sugar, which makes it an easier choice to make when selecting protein bars.

Reminds Me of Lemon Poppy Seed Cake

I received two PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed bars to try out. I have to say that it smelled great, looked great. and it really reminded me of a lemon poppy seed cake or loaf. I liked the outer layer which reminded me of cake icing. Unfortunately, I didn't really enjoy the inside of the bar too much as I found the texture a bit dry and chalky. If the inside of the bar was a bit more moist, I would give it two thumbs up. #gotitfree #chickadvisor

Not the Right Bar for Me

PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar in Lemon Poppy Seed was unfortunately not the right protein bar for me. This is primarily because II try to avoid artificial sweeteners such as sucralose. Maltitol was a better choice though and I was happy to see that on the ingredients. I definitely preferred the peanut butter flavour over the lemon poppy seed. I found that the typical chalky protein bar texture was more evident with the lemon poppy seed flavour. Overall not the right choice for me but some people may find the lemon poppy seed flavour a nice change.

Nope

I received PowerBar's ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed 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.

Unfortunately 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. It took a bit to get it down. I usually love lemon flavoured food items but this was almost too lemony, it was also a little two sweet for my liking and I didn't really get much of a poppy seed taste.

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 satisfied 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.

Protein Plus

I like the bar but I do like the chocolate one a lot better. Also I looked in store intending to buy but Walmart had them on for 7 bucks for 4 of them. That is a little expensive. I can get a box of 12 of equivalent bars for 12-15 bucks.

Lemon Poppy Seed Reduced sugar

Sad to say I tried this flavour and not into it. Although it is reduced sugar it does taste a bit sweet, but I'm sure thats from the lemon. So unfortunately I do not recommend this flavour. It also tasted a bit dry as well.

Not bad for what they were

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!

Lemon Overload!

Lemon Poppyseed is usually one of my fav flavours, however this product did not quite hit the mark. I found the lemon flavour to be too strong, even too sweet for a protein bar. The size of the bar was too long, It could have been smaller for adequate nutrition. The consistency was bang on, chewy, soft, and the layer on top was perfect, just the flavour of the lemon came on too strong.

Not a huge fan of the Lemon Poppy Seed

I eat protein bars on a regular basis. I enjoyed the chocolate/peanut butter but did not like the Lemon Poppy Seed, the texture was too mushy and left a bad taste overall. I was very excited to receive the 2 free samples but have to be honest and say that this one was not a great bar

I would not buy this product

The taste of this bar left me with a chalky feeling and taste. I did not enjoy this bar. I liked that it was low sugar and the nutrients it provided, but it was not enjoyable to eat
