From the Manufacturer
Power Bar Harvest has plenty of selling points to its credit (16 essential vitamins and minerals is a biggie), but the one you probably care about most is flavor. One bite might take you back to fond childhood memories, because what it tastes like more than anything is the chocolate crispy rice bars your Mom used to make. The taste's the same, and the texture's the same. The difference is the healthy nutritional and fiber content.

4 1/2 A Apple Crisp A Day Does...Something for You
I make no claims to sports nutrition (or any nutrition for that matter)expertise, so I'll just call it a snack, and leave its place in your exercise program between you and your personal doctor/nutritionist/coach/guru. However, I will say that this is a much better than average tasting sports bar/snack (name your preference), free of the cardboad-ish and stale texture and barely identifiable aftertastes common to similar products.

While noone will compare this to a real apple crisp, this convenient food for those on the go has recognizable tastes of oats (this flavor and texture predominates), apple, and cinnamon, due in large part, I suspect, to the fact that it actually contains those ingredients! There are also raisins, cane and other sugars--including fructose from fruit juices-- giving it a sweet but not cloying (as they say at the wineries) taste. This company is known for its quality ingredients and generally consumer-friendly face; you can read more about them at powerbar.com. The company recommends consuming this with water to aid the absorption of the many added nutrients--this also gives one a more "full" feeling. One of the better tasting snacks of this type; I've listed nutritional information and ingredients (from the web site) below.

Best Energy Bar Out There
If you are a fan of peanut butter and chocolate, than this bar is for you. I've tried a number of energy bars and they all suffer from one problem -- bland taste and usually end up leaving a gritty aftertaste in my mouth. Not so with PowerBar.

I make a PowerBar part of my regular morning routine. After trying a few of the other flavors I finally stumbled upon the peanut butter and chocolate chip and was "hooked". The flavor is just right and the crispness of the bar is not too hard, but firm enough to make you "feel" like you are eating a full meal. One bar will usually kill any cravings I have all throughout the morning.

Fresher than the Store
I was worried about ordering these online, but the ones I received were fresher than what I usually get in the store. Since I am addicted to them (they are great meal replacements when I am traveling or if I miss breakfast or a snack) and now that my family also loves them it was getting expensive to buy 15 a week in the store. These saved me money and tasted better! Great product. Thank you
