I am kind of addicted to bars - granola, protein, meal replacement - it doesn't matter the kind, I love them and need them to survive! Ha! As a busy mom, it's imperative that I have quick and easy snacks available for when hunger strikes -- which is often!
As a BzzAgent, I had the opportunity to try out the new Fiber One Meal Replacement bars from General Mills. I was actually shocked when I opened the box and found two boxes of the bars. One being the strawberry yogurt and other being chocolate peanut butter. So in all, 10 FREE bars - yes and thanks! Who doesn't like free food? I tried the strawberry yogurt one first. It has nice bite to it with roasted almonds, strawberry flavored fruit pieces, and Greek yogurt flavored coating you can see and taste. Each bar has 10g of protein and 9g of Fiber which is great! The taste did seem a little chalky to me, but the flavor was very good. It also has 9g of Sugar which does seem a little high. I was hoping it would be less than 5g, but compared to other meal replacement bars with similar flavor, it does have a lot less. There are 170 calories per bar as well which by itself really shouldn't be considered a meal replacement, but if you added a piece of fruit or some veggies, it would suffice. I ate it alone, with just some water, and I was hungry about 2 hours later.
With all that being said, I will definitely keep these bars in my rotation of healthy snacks. The ingredients were much better than a lot of other bars I have tried in the past and the flavor was great!
