YUMM

GUYS! This is by far THE BEST protein bar I have tried. This is the only flavor I have tried so far but I bought the cookies and cream to try too. (200 cal, 20g protein, 18 carbs)

I have tried so many, some better than others but they all have that strong "protein" aftertaste. These ones BARELY have that aftertaste, almost not even noticeable.

I buy singles (way more expensive) to try them and then buy the box if I like them. I can't even tell you how many brands and flavors I have tried. I like to keep them on hand in a pinch for a meal or even a snack sometimes.

    I am always up for new protein bars to try! I recently discover Fulfill bars and they're great as well.

    The mouth texture of so many is awful but I found if I keep the one I prefer in the fridge that gummy almost gluey texture is better.

How is the texture? I can't do the texture of more of the bars.

Barebells have a texture similar to a Milk Way. They are sort of soft and fluffy inside; less chewy than a Built Bar, but not grainy like a Dive Bar. They have great macros, and even come in a plant based version. My only complaint is that they are VERY sweet. I don't eat protein bars much, but when I do its typically while I'm out and about and need something to replace a meal or carry me over between - these are SO sweet that sometimes they make me a little queasy.

That actually looks great ?

It's better too. Not as dense and has like a layer of what taste just like caramel layer covers in peanut pieces and all of it has the chocolate coating.

Some people swear that microwaving the bars for a few seconds is pretty good as well.

Barebells has vegan protein bars as well but the ones pictured aren't the vegan ones, or are they?

I have no idea. haha

OMG these would be like the devil to me. Total trigger food, LOL. Each to their own though, hopefully we all know our limits at this point - enjoy! (they look absolutetely lush)!!! ?

Honestly I tried these and they did not live up to the hype! I MUCH prefer Aloha and NuGo. But everyone has their own taste and texture preferences!

I have not tried either of them, I will keep an eye out and give them a try.
