I have had all three of the Fiber One Bars (oats & chocolate, oats & peanut butter, and oats & caramel). I didn't really care for the oats & chocolate, but I like the oats & peanut butter a lot. It tastes very good with a nice mellow peanut butter flavor. Even my young boys (6 and 3) like it. As good as oats & peanut butter is, though, the caramel is 10 times better. It tastes like a candy bar. Obviously, it has a firm texture, but it's not dry by any stretch. It makes a great breakfast or part of a breakfast that can stick with you for a few hours. It can also serve as a very satisfying snack. I will confess that, since my supply of these bars has been limited, I haven't had my kids try them yet. But, now that I have been finally able to order these from Amazon, I will definitely let them try this new flavor.

It's a sweet healthy high fiber snack bar that makes you feel like you are eating a bowl of oatmeal cookie dough with out feeling guilty!

I bought a boatload of these at Costsco. They ended up being 18 cents each. How could I pass up the bargain. Anyway, these are very sweet, a little too sweet for me, but they do taste good. They are chewy and have an oatmeal cookie kind of flavor. I don't taste much caramel flavoring, but the taste is still good enough for me to eat one a day without fussing. They go well with milk.

Inulin, found in chicory root, is the key ingredient here; everything else in the bar is designed to make it possible for you to eat the inulin. Search the web on inulin (not insulin!) -- it is being touted as a wonderful probiotic ingredient. And there's no question that eating these bars will make the trains run on time, so to speak.

The problem is that not everyone tolerates inulin well, and tolerance is at different doses. Some people experience gas, cramps, frequent bowel movements with tarry stool, and other kinds of GI distress. This is not because of the increase in fiber per se -- it is a reaction to the specific fiber here, inulin.

The bars are very sweet but don't treat them like a snack until you know how your body reacts. (I read with horror the account of one person who sat down with a box and polished off four or five in a sitting.) Take it very very slowly. I can tolerate one (1) bite of a bar a day; more than that and I get in trouble, period. At one bite a day, this case of bars is lasting me a long, long time. On the other hand, I'm not worried about the calories in the bar at that rate either.

If you don't finish a bar you need to keep it in a baggie or container because it will dry out and become substantially less appealing. Taste is fine, but I wish I had gotten the chocolate so that I could get my choco fix on at the same time.

OMG, things little treasures are wonderful!! I LOVE these bars. I have problems with constipation and these little bars help so much. When I eat one bar daily, I will have daily BM's. I can't wait to buy the muffins!

If you are having troubles going to the restroom, eat this once a day and it does wonders.

I have had a lot of granola bars in the past. Never satisfied with anyone so far. But this is it! No need to look any further than this if you want fiber that tastes great.

If you are looking for a tasty snack, look no further. These caramel Fiber One bars taste like a cross between a candy bar and a granola bar. The consistency is chewy, but not so chewy that it gets stuck in your teeth. Since each bar provides 35% of daily recommended fiber, it's relatively healthy as well. For those individuals that are on Weight Watchers, these bars are 2 points each... and well worth it. I highly recommend this snack. I also recommend the peanut butter Fiber One bars, although they are not quite as tasty, in my opinion. Fiber One Bars Oats And Peanut Butter, 5-Count Boxes (Pack of 12)

Fiber One bars are my FAVORITE way of getting daily fiber. The caramel flavor is my 2nd favorite flavor to buy. These bars are so GOOD, I have to limit how many I buy because they are addictive! No other fiber tastes as good a Fiber One Bars....

I take these Fiber One bars with me to work, they are a GREAT mid-morning snack! They are filling, taste great (I LOVE caramel!!) and have less fat and more fiber than most other "health" bars. I would recommend you try them!
