2012 Powerbar Performance Bars - Box (12 Bars)

I am an endurance athlete who does long distance events. Powerbars are a staple of my pre and post-workout fueling regime. They are calorie dense (250 per bar) and combine protein and carbs (40 g. carbs, 8g protein) which the current research says is most optimal for performance. You are feel "full" during your training without discomfort or cramps. Plus, I just like the way they taste, but they all taste similar. Avoid the berry varieties and fruit flavors:) The downside of the bars is that they are not for "on the run"--they are rather chewy and need to be well digested. They also get hard in the cold, so do not bring with you on runs in the winter:)

Dieters, beware: these bars are not for weightloss, but performance. 250 calories is about the equivalent amount of calories in a donut, so make sure you're working out, too:)

Disappointed. Did not expect to receive expired product from Amazon. PowerBar food product arrived with product expiraton date four (4) months expired. Am returning product to Amazon. As usual, with Prime, shipping was fast and returns are easy (but irritating). From now on I'll consider non-food items only. PowerBar product is good, when fresh.

Customer review from the Amazon Vine Program I've always had a bit of an issue with PowerBars: they look like someone has poured a chewed granola bar into a packet and sealed it up. If the unopened bar even gets slightly warm, it warps all out of shape. So when you open the pack, you get this weirdly shaped bar of stuff. Even so, this new Fruit Smoothie bar, while not overly attractive looking, tastes pretty much like a fruit smoothie surprisingly enough. PowerBar did a good job of hiding that usual "protein bar" taste with these. The texture is a little strange and the calories are a little high, but if you can get over the weird sensation your tongue will get and use the bar as a meal replacement, then these bars a pretty dang good.

I am a long distance cycler. I have tried a lot of energy bars and most work very well but taste... well not so much. This bar is softer so it is easier to chew while riding, and it is smooth, so you don't have to suck down your precious water supply just to choke it down. I love both the Pineapple and Berry flavors. Highly recommended.
