Customer Reviews of Metamucil Apple Crisp Fiber Wafers 12-packet - 9.3-Ounce package (Pack of 3)
Customer Review: Crispy, Tasty Fiber Source
Summary: 4 Stars
These wafers were on sale, decided to give them a try. They're light and crispy with a natural tasting apple flavor. They're not soft gooey cookies as some reviewers thought they might be, and you can tell by reading this and other reviews these are crispy wafers. They could improve these wafers by reducing the carb count, but considering the overall nutritional value and the fact that these are are a tasty way to get fiber they're a decent choice. My friend's kids eat these, too.Customer Review: Nasty Tastin'
Summary: 2 Stars
These things stick to your gums and teeth. Plus, they taste gross. You have to wash down these wafers with something because they taste disgusting. I thought all the positive reviews on Amazon would mean they taste pretty decent, but boy was I wrong.Customer Review: Bleh
Summary: 2 Stars
these things taste horrible. maybe if u add them to something else they might be ok but to eat straight plain they are very bad tasting, i'd much rather drink the metamucil. the fiber also sticks to your teeth and gums.Customer Review: Strange to see all these great reviews on these horrible cookies
Summary: 1 Stars
I bought these cookies as a cheap way to replace GNU bars which appeared to be more expensive but taste pretty good. Having read the positive reviews and being familiar with the Metamucil brand, I thought I would give them a try. First off, these cookies are really dense and are more like biting into a piece of wood than a cookie. Secondly, they have a greasy feel and a strange unpleasant flavor and odor that seems to have nothing to do with "apple crisp." Worse yet, the chewed cookies start to clump around the outer gums of your teeth and, unless you remove the clump with your fingers, you will have it sitting there most of the day. Pretty gross eh? Unfortunately for me I bought the package of three 12-packet wafers which have ended up as sample cookies for a number of my friends. They immediately had the same reaction as I did when they tried the cookies. Yes, they are still friends of my mine luckily. Sometimes I wonder whether a number of these great reviews were written by the people who actually work at the Metamucil plant.
Metamucil cookies contain only about 5g of fiber and have almost as many calories as the Gnu foods flavor and fiber bar which has 12g of fiber per bar. Gnu has about 50% of your daily fiber requirement in its bar. On the basis of fiber content the Gnu bar is not that expensive after all when compared to these cookies. Unlike this awful tasting Metamucil product, the Gnu bar is not only edible, but actually tastes pretty good.
