Tried one the other day and was pleasantly surprised at the taste. Tasted more like a dessert than a protein bar. Appears relatively harmless for someone wanting a mid day snack or fulfilling a sweet tooth craving. Anyone else try one or have an opinion?

I find it a little hard to justify all that other “stuff” for only 14g of protein, although that may very well be why it tastes so good.
I have a hard time stomaching even the higher-end protein bars.

These are terrible meal replacement bars but they sell well because I think taste trumps everything for a big part of the population.
