I saw the advertisements for these Kashi Bars on the back of my cereal boxes and knew I had to try them.

I decided to buy one of each flavors at my local grocery store before I buy a pack of 12 here on amazon. In my opinion, the Chocolate Turtle ones are the best tasting and closest to an actually candy bar.

The toasted pecans on the outside are what makes this bar my favorite. And its good for you health wise!! 6g of Fiber and 12g of Protein.

Everything based on a 2000 Calorie Diet, just so you guys know. Finally, no High Fructose Corn Syrup or Partially Hydrogenated Oils. Can't go wrong!!!! My local grocery store charges $1.79 for each of these, so great deal here.

Hope that helps and enjoy!!!!!

These bars (all of the roll types) are hard to eat. That's actually part of why I like them so much. Because they take some effort to bite into and chew, they basically force you to eat slower. As a result, you feel more satisfied at the end of eating one than if you had scarfed down a candy bar in three bites. I don't find them hard as rocks though, just very chewy. If you don't like chewy food, then these are definitely not for you. I also really like the texture contrast between the crunchy/crispy outside and the chewy nougat inside of the bar.

There is a bit of a mess factor involved in eating these, as noted by one reviewer. The caramel is sticky and sometimes leaves traces on the wrapper, and the outside crispy/crunchy coating tends to crumble off a bit. If you want to keep the inside of your car spotlessly clean, you might not want to chow down on a Go-Lean roll bar while driving. Nevertheless, I still think these are some of the best bars out there. They are not discernibly chalky nor do they have a strange chemical aftertaste the way that many protein or energy bars do. They really are like fortified candy bars. And they pack quite a high protein and fiber punch for only 190 calories each, while only having about 13 mg of sugars--about 1 Tablespoon--per bar (I was expecting more like 25-30 mg when I tried my first one). The chocolate turtle roll is my favorite flavor, but honestly, I've tried every single flavor of the Go-Lean Roll bars, and they are really all quite good.

I love eating these for breakfast, since they have a good amount of protein and fiber. They taste like a peanut roll, are very chewy (so eating them takes a bit) and go great with coffee!

These are surprisingly filling and pretty close to candy bar tasty. I sometimes have a Zone Perfect bar for lunch but it's hard to make it to the end of the day without feeling famished; these Kashi bars keep me satisfied up to dinner time. As others have said, they are quite chewy, which I like, and the nut/grain coating has a good crunchy texture. Know that if you try to wolf one of these down quickly, the crunchy coating makes for a pretty effective abrasive against the roof of your mouth... in other words, chew slowly!

Amazon's price per-bar is quite high compared to just a pack of 4 that you can find in big-box stores.

I normally love everything Kashi! These bars are not very good.. they aren't bad.. but they aren't good either. I'm eating them but I don't particularly like them. I'd recommend almost any other Kashi bar instead.

I find this bars very satisfying over all. I just grab one when I am on the go and somtimes it is lunch when I am really busy.

I love anything that is chewy. This fiber rich bar is sweet and chewy. It keeps you full and has plenty of protein. Caramel and chewy nougat all rolled into one.

I bought these on the basis of other reviews and I'm so sorry. They're dry and tasteless at best, weird chemical tasting at worst. I don't recommend them and can't believe that some people think these taste good.

I love these bars which I discovered 3 years ago when I needed to eat more foods with a better glycemic response. These are great and really keep me satisfied. I'm on the auto delivery plan which is so much cheaper than the grocery store. I used to try to wait until they went on sale at the grocery store, but now I just do the Amazon auto delivery and cheap price. I do wish they would make them a little healthier and stop with the palm kernel oil and a little less sugar would suit me better.

These Kashi bars are some of the very few you can buy that are not coated in chocolate. They are chewy and take longer to eat therefore making them satisfying. They are loaded with protein, fiber and not too much sugar.
