If you like eating chalk you might like these.
After trying both kinds of Power Bars I am sold on the chocolate peanut butter. I will never purchase these Lemon Poppy seed ones again. They looked amazing when I opened them covered in white chocolate and nice and thick. But when you bite into them it is like biting into a piece of chalk, they were dry and not very tasty at all. I will NOT be advising my friends to try these
I probably won't purchase this
These protein bars were not very good at all. The flavour wasn't terrible, but the texture was just too much for me. It was really dry and pasty and I couldn't really get past it.
The nutritional value also isn't very good; they claim to be lower in sugar, but if you read the ingredients they replaced sugar with sugar alcohol, so I really don't think there's much of a difference.
I'm glad that I got this for free because I would not have been happy if I paid for it.
This flavour wasn't my favourite
Was so excited to receive my PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed #gotitfree alongside the chocolate peanut butter bar and I would have to say that the lemon poppy seed isn't for me. Personally I prefer the chocolate flavoured bar since it tasted better overall and I didn't like the tartness of this lemon one. It was a somewhat crumbly texture in the middle yet it surprisingly does not break and fall apart while consuming. Major plus that its reduced sugar and so high in protein! Would recommend this if you like tart lemon flavoured goods otherwise you might not enjoy it
Not for me.
I'm a HUGE fan of lemon poppy seed combinations so was pretty excited to try this bar but it was a bit of a let down. The flavour is very true to taste however, very single bite was dry and chalky and it was difficult to finish. I would not go out of my way to buy this again. #gotitfree
I have to say it certainly was lemony. Not tart though . You could definitely taste the poppy seed. Not sure I'm a fan of the texture. Interestesting but I think I'd get tired of the taste quickly.
Great for that extra boost after a workout
I recently started a new fitness routine which included planning my food out. The PowerBar ProteinPlus Lemon Poppy Seed protein bar was perfect for a post workout snack. I loved the reduced sugar as it fit right in my macros. The taste was light and definitely my favourite.
I received this free to try from ChickAdvisor #gotitfree
Dry, powdery taste ruins what is otherwise a good bar
The item was received free as part of my being on the ChickAdvisor review panel.
Pros: Soft, chewy texture
Not too sweet
Natural tasting
At 200 calories/bar, it is relatively low in calories
20 grams of protein/bar
Provides 20% of dietary fiber
Cons: Dry, powdery taste to every bite
Overall, this is a protein bar that I would eat (but not go out of my way to buy) again if I need something quick and nutritious when I am on the run. Even though there are many pros to it, I cannot get over the dry, powdery taste that it has. I found that I had to wash it down with a lot of milk.
Lemon Poppy Seed PowerBar ... not as good as it sounds
I was so excited to try this ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar Lemon Poppy Seed PowerBar that I got for free since I love lemon poppy seed; however, I was a bit disappointed. The bar definitely tasted like lemon poppy seed but the taste was accompanied by a strong chalky taste.
I know protein bars tend to have the chalky taste so I had a few more bites thinking that I would get over it. After three bites into the protein bar, the chalky taste was so strong that I had no desire to finish it. For this reason, I would not purchase this product or try it again.
I was more excited to try this flavour out over the creamy chocolate peanut butter, however after one bite, lemon poppy seed isn't for me, Both of these have the same consistency, which many times they won't. There's a thin white chocolate layer and inside is light and almost whipped, it's not dense. I wasn't a fan of the flavor, I figured that the lemon would be strong, like it normally is, it's not really in this bar. There's actually very little flavour, it's almost a little bland, I'm not a fan of the flavour, but I do love the bar and the texture/consistency and how full I feel after eating it.
PowerBar ProteinPlus Reduced Sugar in Lemon Poppy Seed is too sweet for me. #gotitfree from Chick Advisor to test out. At first, I was very excited because it's kind'a new for me to have a taste of a lemon flavored power bar. After taking a first bite, it was okay but my taste buds got so overwhelmed by the very strong flaovour. I like the smell of it but I preferred to have the chocolate peanut butter flavor of powerbar.
