Default Balance Bars

What do you guys think of them? They seem to taste good and have good stuff in them but I'm not sure.

Here is link to their site with

The Unexpected Side of Balance Bar

Nutritional Information link is bottom left of the bar picture.

Thanks.

I like to keep boxes of bars in my desk for days when I need an extra snack. I like the kashi bars, and letely I have been eating the clif Builder's bar. It's got 20g of protein. If you like the balance bar, great. I don't like to use them as a meal replacement.

I buy my stuff at Sam's Club.

I think I myself am going to keep a box of bars at my desk at work. I often forget my lunch at home and have to figure out what I'm going to eat. Are you going to be using these bars as a meal replacement or a supplement?

I usually eat them as a snack or have one about two hours before I go for a run. Some flavors are a bit funky...you have been warned

I usually dont like the taste of balance bars (and that type of foods). Do these ones taste any better than they used to?

Not sure what they tasted like before but I stick to the chocolate ones.

I've always been a person to steam some veggies and rice and take that with me and eat one serving throughout the day as my snack. But sometimes when you forget it, it's nice to have a backup.

I think cliff bars are delicious. Haven't had a balance bar.

I'm a myoplex lite bar junkie...but I'm irritated because they changed their Advantage bars to be similar to the regular myoplex and less like the 'whatchmacalit' like they were :(
