Customer Review: too sweet
Summary: 1 Stars
Customer review from the Amazon Vine™ Program (What's this?)
I don't understand the reason behind this protein bar. The packaging explains that Dr. Melina was tired of searching for the perfect protein bar, apparently one didn't exist, so she decided to make one. And of course, her credentials for doing so are a PhD.
That leaves me to wonder what this says about us, our food phobias have led us to a point of desperation where we would rather Doctors prepare our food. I don't suppose that means we want chefs to perform our surgery.
All that aside, the flavors are really not to my liking at all. I appreciate that this bar is totally innocent of Corn Syrup, that is what attracted me to it from the start, that and the 14g of Protein, which is generous in this tiny, under 2oz. bar. However, it seems rather skimpy in the vitamin category. A little Vitamin D and some Calcium, not much, and nothing else.
But the flavor is far too sweet to enjoy. After, you squinch past the intense sweetness, you are left with a candy-version taste of Lemon Peel and fake tasting Raspberries. All of this carried on a bar of whey and soy crisps that are dipped in what looks like yogurt but tastes only of sugar.
I'm left thinking this protein bar is little more than ego-packaging, lame unconvincing story, and does not deliver what it promises.
