Glucerna Snack Bar for People with Diabetes, 36 Bar Variety Pack Review
Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Seriously. It's like eating a real candy bar. It is so rich and satisfying that I can sometimes get away with just half a bar as a snack. I say sometimes, because having half a bar this tasty just sitting there is usually too much temptation. The mini bars are better for that.
Here's a little "trick" that will make each bar last longer and leave you feeling fuller. Drink at least 8 oz of water, hot water works better, and then have your bar or half a bar. Repeat in 1-2 hours.
There is no chalky or artificial taste and no aftertaste - none. These are even better than the regular power bars that are not low sugar or artificially sweetened.
I don't know how they are for moderating blood sugar levels as they claim, but I felt more satisfied and less hungry for longer than with other bars, including real candy bars.
Here's the nutritional breakdown of the ones I've tried so far. Sod-sodium, Pot=potassium
. . Oz . Cal/Fat . . Sod . . . Pot . . . . Flavor
. 0.70 . 060/25 . 060mg . 050mg . Chocolate peanut mini bar
. 2.04 . 210/50 . 085mg . 210mg . Chocolate chunk bar
. 1/41 . 150/35 . 150mg . 080mg . Chocolate caramel snack bar
My preferences are in order:
Chocolate Chunk: A slightly crunchy texture that's a little like a Rice Crispies treat. I think the crunchiness comes from something they call "soy protein nuggets. This is my favorite. Just like a really good candy bar.
Chocolate Peanut: Very nice combination of chocolate and peanut, chewy and crunchy. This is a close second.
Chocolate Caramel: A crunchy texture that is much more like a Rice Crispies treat. This one has "crisp soy nuggets". It has a strong caramel flavor, which is not my favorite, but I bet caramel lovers will like it.
Variety Pack: Only two flavors: Chocolate Peanut and Chocolate Caramel. Not much variety and all chocolate. It would have been nice to have gotten a box of blueberry, oatmeal raisin, and/or cinnamon bun
