Snickers Marathon ENERGY Bar Crunchy Dark Chocolate 12 Bars Review

Snickers Marathon ENERGY Bar Crunchy Dark Chocolate 12 Bars
Average Reviews:

I am hoping this will be included in the Amazon Prime selection soon because as a frequent protein- and nutrition-bar consumer, this one is the best I've found so far.
I also like Odwalla Super Protein, Kashi Protein Roll bars, and Atkins Nutrition bars, but they are all 190-250 calories which I find a bit too high in calories for an afternoon or mid-morning snack.
This Marathon Nutrition (different from Marathon Energy) bars comes in two flavors, almond nut crunch and dark chocolate, and the dark chocolate flavor is excellent and true to the description. It has no discernible metallic/chalky aftertaste that many of the fortified bars have (although this includes a good range of vitamins and minerals too), and contains the following macronutrients:
Calories: 150
Protein: 11g
Carb: 22g with 7g fiber and 9g sugar
Fat: 4.5g
150 is just right for me, and 11 grams of protein with that calories profile is EXCELLENT. Most of all, it's delicious.
The only drawback that I can see in these bars is the relative unavailability in markets (I think it's still new), and its non-organic ingredients. Overall, excellent, healthy product from a candy brand.

South Beach Living High Protein Cereal Bars, Maple Nut, 5-Count Bars (Pack of 4) Review

I received my latest order of this item today, and see that the protein has now been lowered to 8g. The bars are not called "High Protein Cereal Bars"; now they are "Protein Fit". "New Lower Price!" is printed on the boxes, but I paid $16.06, which is not a lower price.

These bars taste great and are what I call do-able nutrition. They are not 100% healthy (most products aren't), but they are a healthier alternative than a candy bar for example and have great taste compared to other protein bars. Even though the amount of protein is not that high, it's still better than no protein. I use them as a meal replacement or a snack.

Gnu Foods Peanut Butter, 1.4-Ounce (Pack of 16) Review

I don't know why other reviewers have rated this bar so poorly (on other package sizes) - I loved it!
I purchased this bar before reading the reviews and I'm glad, because if I'd read them, I wouldn't have tried it. The bar was sitting in my pantry, waiting to be eaten, when I thought to check what Amazon said about it. I read the reviews, and prepared myself for a bad experience. Opening the wrapper, I smelled a delightful aroma of pure peanut butter, with a slight hint of oats and wheat. The flavor is reminiscent of a peanut butter-and-oatmeal cookie, but made a little more mellow by the addition of healthy fiber. The texture is great - I feel like I'm actually eating something!
So many nutrition bars are gone too soon, eaten in mere bites and leave me feeling like "why did I bother?", but not this bar! It was really good, start to finish. It's my favorite of the Gnu bars I've tried so far, and Gnu is definitely my favorite brand. They're healthy, full of fiber, and NOT full of the mystery ingredients that so many other bars contain, not to mention all the sugar! Plus, Gnu bars are vegan, dairy-free, and contain no trans fat, no high fructose corn syrup, and no artificial ingredients. They contain only healthy, real food ingredients. You can't go wrong!

I just received my latest automatic shipment of South Beach Living High Protein Bars only to find that it appears that Kraft has changed the recipe so that there are now more carbs and less protein per bar. If you are on a low carb diet, this is not good news. I have cancelled my automatic shipment and will be looking for another alternative.
