I've never been able to get into Clif Bars for some reason, and yet I love the taste of Powerbars (supposedly inferior taste). I'm tempted to try again with this mint flavor.

These things seem similar to Powerbars. How does the taste compare to them?

I hate ALL powerbars. The Peanut Butter is edible if I'm very hungry (good for 1-2 day LANs with no other food).

IMO they taste a lot better than Power Bars, and their texture is much more food-like. They are also easier to eat, since Power Bars are so gluey in texture.

Bought three dozen! Thanks OP.

Regarding the taste of these, they are okay but not snack quality. I carry them on long bike rides for energy. They taste a LOT better than extruded bars like Powerbars.

Just my opinion of course.

I think the cool mint chocolate tastes like girl scout thin mints. I also like the peanut crunch and the caramel apple cobbler is just awesome. I've tried the black cherry almond and didnt' care for it. Since this is a personal issue YMMV. I think they taste better than powerbars. Also mine that I ordered for 7.99 each were set to expire late next year so they are very fresh. Enjoy!

Peanut Butter Crunch is the best!

Stock up now for hiking this spring and summer! These things are awesome! Tons of carbs in a small package!
