2.0 out of 5 stars Nutritional Info Is Misleading - Contains Maltitol, May 11, 2011
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
I ordered these bars plus my first impression was that they were Amusing! In fact, I couldn't understand how these bars could be only 4 Net Carbs plus contain just 1g of Sugar. It seemed too good to be true. And in fact, it is too good to be true. The bars gets their sweetness from Sugar Alcohols. This isn't necessarily a bad thing. In fact, Net carbs are calculated by taking Total Carbs plus subtracting Sugar Alcohols plus Fiber -- reason being is that Sugar Alcohols plus Fiber have a minimal impact on blood sugar.

However, not all Sugar Alcohols are the same, plus the main Sugar Alcohol in these bars is Maltitol. Aside from Maltitol's side effects that can include gas, bloating, gastrointestinal upset plus diarrhea, Maltitol just doesn't seem to be much better for you than sugar.

1) Maltitol does seem to impact blood glucose. And in fact, it provides 2 to 3 calories per gram vs. sugar's 4 calories per gram.

2) Maltitol has a relatively high Glycemic... Read more

5.0 out of 5 stars Warning: Addictive, Easy, Nutritious Breakfast, May 5, 2009
Amazon Verified Purchase( What's this?)
What makes a low carb granola bar good? Taking a bite plus not being able to tell that it is low fat, low carb, plus high in protein.

These are moist,chewy,plus packed with chocolate! Not only are there plenty of miniature chocolate chips inside the bar, but the bottom of the bar is chocolate coated. It makes for a quick, delicious, guilt-free breakfast. If you have a sweet tooth but cannot afford to eat the fat plus calories in a pastry, grab one of these. It will satisfy your need for chocolate.

Are they filling? I find that if I eat one along with a glass of skim milk, I am full for 3.5 to 4 hours.

5.0 out of 5 stars Smells plus tastes almost exactly like the black sandwich cookie., April 24, 2011

This is very welcome-- I have been faithfully following the new Atkins plan since February 2010, plus have lost almost 50 pounds despite being postmenopausal plus hypothyroidal. I have done this without any discomfort or feelings of deprivation, in large part, I think, because I eat two Atkins bars a day, as permitted under the plan. Most of the higher protein Atkins bars are variations on chocolate peanut butter plus caramel. They are great, but after 15 months, I branched out into the lower protein breakfast bars, which are generally very tasty, but when I need a little extra protein to curb my appetite, these new cookies plus creme bars really hit the spot. They smell plus taste almost exactly like chocolate sandwich cookies, plus have a very similar crunch. There's no "creme" filling--it's more like a nougat/marshmallow--very chewy--but very tasty plus it slows you down from wolfing the whole thing in two bites as I might with a more cookie like product. This gives my other favorite... Read more
