Power Bar energy bars are very popular, and widely
used by all types of individuals and athletes. It
comes in several varieties, serving different needs.
There are:
Power Bar - the original: This is
the original energy bar, designer to provide a good
boost of energy, with each bar giving 45g of carbs
and 10g of protein.
PowerBar Protein Plus: Unlike the original,
this bar comes with much higher protein content at 24g of
protein and 38g of carbs per bar.
Power Bar Harvest: This is a much
more nutrition oriented bar. Each bar gives 45g carbs,
7g protein, and it also comes with a host of vitamins,
minerals, and dietary fiber.
Depending on what you're looking for, there's a power
bar to meet your needs. I've tried a few flavors of
each type, and you can see them compared below.
PowerBar Original Taste Test
Powerbar energy bars come in a variety of flavors,
more than most other brands of protein bars. They
come in: peanut butter, chocolate, apple cinnamon,
banana, chocolate peanut butter, oatmeal raisin, mocha
chip and wild berry. I've tried the oatmeal raisin
and chocolate flavors, and they both tasted great.
This is a very 'flexible" bar, in that it's
very chewy and soft. It has a nice soft outter coating,
and a slightly crunch and chewy inner filling. Very
nice tasting.
Overall, I'd give them a 8.5 on a scale of 10. These
energy bars have a nice moisture, and chewiness, and
aren't too powdery or dry.
I enjoyed the powerbar harvest. They come in several
flavors: apple crisp, cherry crunch, chocolate, PB
chocolate, and strawberry. It was a nice tasting nutrition
bar, but for me, it was a little on the sweet side.
Its slightly crunchy, and not too dry with a nice
cheekiness. Overall, I'd give it a 8 out of 10.
I've tried 2 flavors of protein plus bars: peanut
butter chocolate, and cookies and cream. Both taste
great! They also have other flavors like brownie and
vanilla, but I haven't gotten around to trying them
yet, but if the 2 I tried are any indication of great
taste, I'm sure all the other flavors will taste great
as well.
For me, power bar protein plus was
the best - partly for its higher protein content
for my needs, and it also tasted great. For the
protein plus, I enjoyed the peanut butter chocloate
flavor slightly more than the cookies and cream
flavor. For those who need a protein bar high in
protein, then power bar protein plus is a good choice.
For those who seek energy bars, then
the original power bar is a good choice, and for
those looking for a nutrition bar, then the powerbar
harvest makes an excellet choice with its many vitamins,
minerals, and dietary fiber.
