These snacks are delicious and just the right amount to feel satisfied without being too full. I used to have them on auto-ship, but my supplier stopped carrying them. Fingers crossed I can find another seller with a good price soon, because I really enjoy them!

Bought with 12 packs of Cashew Cranberry and 12 pack of Almond Blueberry. I am not a fan of chocolate, but this flavor in particular is my favorite of the 3. Easy to eat, not to chewy. I hear dark chocolate has a very bitter taste, and i can vaguely remember the taste pure dark chocolate. This wasn't bad, I think the hazelnut evened out the taste really well. I would recommend this product to those who find zing bars hard to consume and love chocolate. Would I buy this again though? Probably not, because i really am not a fan of chocolate... =/ Cashew Cranberry Orange:::: Product if very chewy. I do not have a sweet tooth, so this one in particular was very sweet. Out of the 3 I bought, this is the one i like the least. I bought this for my work to keep at my desk for snacking. After a while I started giving this flavor away to my co-workers. I'm sure its good, but for my taste buds, it was way to sweet for me. I did not mind the gum chewing texture, but I wouldn't prefer it. It took some time to consume this. Almond Blueberry:::: This flavor was my 2nd best of the three i bought. You can really taste the almond and blueberry, it is very distinct. The only downside to this flavor for me was that it was very chewy and hard to bite. It would often get stuck to my teeth and i have to pry really hard with my tongue to get it off. Other than that, the flavor was great. I would put this above the Dark Chocolate Hazelnut, if it were easier to consume. Overall I would recommend this to others if you don't mind that chewing battle.

This makes for a nice pick-me-up in the afternoon or early evening, especially following having hit the gym -- I'm liking the dark chocolate coconut with a cup of ice coffee especially. These easily beat out most of the competition, the sickly sweet protein bars that you might find at the grocery store or GNC: * 10 g protein * 7 g fiber * non-GMO * most (not all) ingredients are organic These are solid, the real deal. I need to say that these are pretty sweet, and the bars fall apart in the heat. Flip side, if you leave them in the fridge, you're risking losing a tooth if you bit into one without leaving it out for some bit of time. These could serve as meal replacement in a pinch, but I'm not sure you'd really want to go that route as part of a weight-loss plan. This is good for the gym bag/brief case or to grab if you're running out the door. While I like the dark chocolate coconut, I wasn't crazy about the cookie dough, which is too sweet. Before buying a box of these, you may wish to buy one or two flavors at a local store to see if you're into the texture.

Yummy protein bar. GF & DF. Came promptly, which is not always the case as I live in Hawaii. Also appreciated how well wrapped it was for the heat with mini ice packs and metallic paper inside the box. The bars arrived in excellent condition. Someone was paying attention and I appreciate it!

Great protein bars, I love the peanut butter flavor. They remind me of protein bars I loved that my parents would buy when I was a teen.

[DISCLAIMER: I have no medical expertise whatsoever. Some of my conclusions may be wrong, so I encourage you to look up this information from other sources and make your own assessment] I hesitated a lot about writing this review. On one hand, something made me seriously ill, and I feel a strong obligation to warn others. On the other hand, I don't want to be unfair to the company that made this product. While I do have my suspicions, I can't definitively say that their product made me sick. In the end I decided that I'm just going to share some established facts about tapioca, an ingredient in this protein bar. There's something interesting about tapioca that I think everyone should know before they make it a part of their diet. Tapioca comes from a plant called Cassava, which normally contains Cyanide, a dangerous poison. My understanding is that Cassava always has Cyanide in it, the questions is how much. In any case, Cassava is unsafe to eat until it goes through a cleaning process, and even then, it's not guaranteed that all the Cyanide has been removed. If you ingest a very small amount of Cyanide, depending on how small, and depending on your individual body, your system may be able to get rid of it. However, if you ingest a large amount from a plant that wasn't properly cleaned, you can get seriously sick: "vertigo, vomiting, and collapse. In some cases, death may result within one or two hours." Another way you can get seriously harmed is through long exposure; ingesting small amounts over an extended period of time. "Chronic, low-level cyanide exposure is associated with the development of goiter (enlarged thyroid gland) and with tropical ataxic neuropathy, a nerve-damaging disorder." There's more horrible stuff, but I'll stop here. I didn't know any of this until recently when I got sick and needed to investigate the cause. For over a year now, I have been regularly eating protein bars that contain Tapioca. The product I bought and consumed most frequently was the Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Zing bar. I have also been consuming similar protein bars from another brand called "ALOHA," which also contain Tapioca. About a month ago, I ate half an ALOHA bar from a new box (and a new batch) that I had just opened. A few hours later I got extremely sick. I have a mild food allergy, and the symptoms I had were similar to my allergic reaction, but much more severe, and this sickness was worse than anything I've experienced before. The next day, when I started feeling well enough, I went back and checked the label on the ALOHA bar to see if it contains my allergen food, but it wasn't in the ingredient list. Of course, the protein bar was not the only thing I ate prior to getting sick, so it was difficult for me to pin-point the cause. I decided not to eat any ALOHA bars until I know more, but I continued to eat the Zing bars almost daily. The Zing bars never made sick at that point, and I have been buying them for over a year. A few weeks later I started noticing bizarre and extremely alarming symptoms. Things like vertigo, vomiting, and headaches are too vague, but the new symptoms were unusual, so the search quickly lead to Cyanide. My new symptoms were a close match to symptoms of long-term Cyanide exposure. To be clear, I make no claims that this product, or any other product I mentioned, contains toxins or had anything to do with my sickness. I still don't know for sure, and I'm keeping records and samples of both products until I know more. What I'm sure about is that I'm staying away from Tapioca, and any other type of food made from the Cassava. While it appears that a lot of people consume it regularly, and that in some countries it's a fundamental food source which they can't go without, it's also clear that Cyanide poisoning is a familiar condition. Everywhere Cassava is mentioned, there's always a warning attached about adequate cleaning and processing. For Tapioca specifically, I saw conflicting statements, some claiming that Tapioca is safe because it's a highly processed form of Cassava, while others give a general that includes Tapioca. I have no doubt that the companies who make these bars want to provide a good and safe product to their customers. What I worry about is unintentional contamination. This is a dangerous plant by nature, and it's not far-fetched to think that they might receive a bad batch from their supplier. Do they test the ingredients they use every single time to ensure that they are safe? How much leftover Cyanide is considered safe and acceptable? Maybe the average person can tolerate a certain amount, but how do you know you're an average person?

Best pb chocolate bars. Healthier than candy, cures cravings at night. Better price than store.

Love these bars. Everyone in my family loves them. Low on sugar, good ingredients, low on allergens, tastes good, and has only natural sweeteners like tapioca, agave, and monk fruit. Finally a bar that meets the needs. Mint and the peanut butters are our favorite. The mint one tastes like a delicious chocolate covered brownie. So good. Thank you!
