Best tasting bar so far, September 26, 2005
This review is from: Balance Bare Trail Mix Bar, Chocolate Chip, 1.76-Ounce Bars (Pack of 15) (Health and Beauty)
We're doing a lot of hiking/backpacking, so we need the fuel to get us going. Many bars are richer in protein, but impossible to swallow as they make a plaster like substance in your mouth.
This one is my prefered one, easy to eat, good taste, and provides energy/protein for the short and longer run.

"OH MY GOODNESS" Protein Bar HEAVEN!! Can we say MMMMMMMmmmmmm, September 23, 2008
This review is from: Balance Bare Trail Mix Bar, Chocolate Chip, 1.76-Ounce Bars (Pack of 15) (Health and Beauty)
Like I said in my previous review, I used to think they (BALANCE) REALLY had the market wrapped up in the flavor department, on those Gold Caramel bars that kind of tasted like a snickers bar, then I read the reviews for these & decided to give them a try as I was kind of getting tired of the same bars ( I bought 10 cases of the gold caramel ones, as I have 7 kids & IF I hoped to have a few when I wanted them I had to buy "extra" to share, when they did the puppy dog eyes at me as I nibbled my bar with my A.M. tea, I would give them a snack, cookie, trail mix etc... but they always wanted a piece of my treat! Therefore the 10 case purchase!
Any who....., I digress, These Chocolate Chip & Chocolate Almond bars are now my entire family's tie for Favorite protein, low glycemic bar! The Trail Mix fruit & nut bare bars (& the rest) are all just a bit too sweet for us, good flavor & texture, just really REALLY sweet! Now if that's what works for you, boy have you got a treat coming when you buy those babies! BUT please try our favorites FIRST! These are heavenly! We open up a few & cut them into pieces & I give each child, some fresh walnuts, almonds, & pecans or cashews with their pieces of the bars, they are to die for!! It's like a custom candy bar kit every morning, sometimes they like to spread them with extra peanut butter & sprinkle on the nuts all chopped up or slices of banana & toasted coconut. They call this 'snack" first thing in the a.M. their First breakfast when we all sit down to do our family devotions, then it's off to get their chores done & their Second breakfast which is usually light as they are so satisfied with their slow burning "fuel" they had at their First breakfast! they have plenty of energy to usually go 3-4 hours if need be from their Balance Bare Bars breakfast! We have tried all the rest, the yogurt ones, fruit & nut ones, & peanut ones & oat ones (I forget what they're called), but they are all a bit too sweet for our tastes, but then again we don't like kool aid & sugar cereals, & REALLY REALLY sweet things, IF you do, then you would enjoy these other flavors as well! For our Family the chocolate almond bare bars & the chocolate chip trail bars are number 1, (excuse the pun) , "bar none"! I(I couldn't resist!) LOL :-)

Balance Bar Trail MIx, February 27, 2006
This review is from: Balance Bare Trail Mix Bar, Chocolate Chip, 1.76-Ounce Bars (Pack of 15) (Health and Beauty)
The bars are very tasty. Unfortunately, the ones I received were one month away from the expiration date. They tasted stale. I buy these bars all the time from the supermarket, and the ones from Amazon definitely did not taste fresh. They were hard to chew. I then purchased them from the supermarket and the bars from the supermarket had an expiration of six months later. I would not buy them from Amazon again.
