Bear Valley Pemmican Bars, Carob Cocoa, 3.75-Ounce Bars (Pack of 12)

I tried the carob-cocoa flavor. These are not at all sweet, even with malted grains, honey and raisins in the ingredient list. They have the texture and appearance of very dense, nutty brownies, but not a lot of chocolate flavor, rather a kind of carob/raisin/grain taste. These are for active people who want a quick, calorie-dense (440 calories per bar) meal from a bar made with natural ingredients. They are NOT weight-loss bars.

I like my coffee black and my iced tea with no sweeteners of any kind, so maybe that is why I like these bars. My wife won't drink those beverages without lots of sugar, and she HATES these bars. So, I'm guessing if you like sugar in your coffee, you should stay away from this product.

Got the idea to purchase these for a backpacking trip as a result of previous trips to Philmont. The bars were moist, but the carob is by no means chocolatey. The weight to nutrient ratio is ideal for backpacking, and in some cases can be used to replace a breakfast of lunch.

These bars gave me a stomache and indigestion. I am lactose intolerant. Nonfat milk is listed prominently as an ingredient on the package, but not on the website. This is unfortunate, because, otherwise, I think that they have a good high-caloric-density backpacking product. As for taste, on the trail, everything tastes good.

My husband tells me that these do fill him up, providing that he drinks a lot of water while chewing on one. One bar kept him full from breakfast until dinner which we eat about 5PM. He did drink a lot of water as others suggested, and he said he felt no hunger all afternoon. He is a believer that these will work for a day in the woods.

I agree with the other reviews if you want sweet this is not going to be for you. I prefer this taste to the sweeter bars so it is just right for me. Also bring water! The bars are very filling and dense. Great for hiking or any other outdoor activity.

I will be buying again.
