Vega Sport Protein Bar Crunchy Peanut Butter (12 Count) - Plant Based Vegan Protein Bars, Non Dairy, Gluten Free, Non GMO

When I buy a product I only look at the ingredients, it's what we buy really, the rest is irrelevant.As a super-picky vegan I find this bar excellent as a post-workout option, but ONLY for that purpose.Why only? Because there is plenty of sugar, which is actually what we need after an intense workout in order to recover from the drop in glucose level. We need quality protein in generous amounts with fast sugar, and this is exactly what this bar has.I use it for my runs because I never make a loop (it's easier to go somewhere rather than turn around and say "OMG it's just half... Another whole time like I just did?") which means I take Uber at the end and there might be almost an hour before I can take a shake. So the bar is absolutely perfect for that.The combination [Mostly rice protein + Some pea protein] is very intelligent because of the distribution of amino acids (Rice has almost all of them in good quantity except one, Lysine, which pea has good amounts of).WARNING: if you are lazy and just show up at a gym not pushing anything, or run without truly pushing hard for an extended period of time, then this bar is BAD for you. Why? You would raise your blood glucose level without having dropped it first. You must push yourself hard, truly hard, THEN yes take this afterwards.Keep in mind that taking this during the day rather than after truly high intensity workouts will just make you fat.PS: my only regret is that there isn't any "Subscribe & Save" option as I write this. Too bad! I don't care about the "save" but I will definitely forget to order it until I run out of it and realize it too late. Seller must do something about this (and will sell a lot more).

While these bars probably owe a lot of their palatability to the 14 grams of sugar listed in the nutritional information, they are certainly taking advantage of every gram with just how good they are. Seriously, I get excited to eat these, and am so thrilled to find such a fantastic vegan product. They are a little pricey so the 12 pack is definitely worth it for the savings - plus, the bars are so good that you won't get sick of them quickly. They're dense, delicious and filling. Love these things.

These are really good especially for vegan bars. They are crispy and remind me of Thin Mints although they have a bit of a chemical after taste to them. They aren't dry or have a weird texture like many vegan bars. They are a bit high in sugar for a protein bar and some of the ingredients aren't the healthiest, but if you want a bar you don't have to choke down that provides 20 g of protein, this is it! It's definitely a good replacement if you crave candy bars.

Great for those who cannot or choose not to eat milk or egg products. My tummy is very sensitive to these and I get no reactions after eating one. They are a bit too sweet for my preference and I NEVER finish a while bar in one sitting. The chocolate is spot on and is the main reason I love Vega protein bars! The texture of the bar is unremarkable, and if they’d change the filling just a bit to be more chunky, and not so “ground up” I’d probably live off these lol

I like almost everything about the the crispy mint chocolate Vega Sport Protein bar except that it's a little too sweet for my taste, but it doesn't stop me from eating the bars.Last month was the first time I ordered the bars through Amazon and chose the Subscribe and Save option. The order arrived a few days early and well chilled with an ice pack, a pleasant surprise from previous experiences of ordering from other online stores.This months order arrived a few days early with a luke warm ice pack. When opening the top of one of the bars I could see that most of the chocolate had melted away from the bar and solidified. Forgetting that I was sitting in front of an oscillating fan I tore the cover off the rest of the bar, and a lot of chocolate slivers blew at me, over me, and past both sides of me (fortunately my mouth was open). I wasn't all that thrilled about it. Then I ate the bar. It was good!I'm hoping future orders come without chocolate mint confetti.

1) As others have commented, these taste E X A C T L Y like girl scout chocolate mint cookies. Mind. Blown.2) They are SUPER dense and filling. These truly are "meal replacement" bars rather than snacks. They've saved me in a hurried pinch many, many times.3) We just ordered like our third box and we're still not tired of them. They've pretty much become a staple.4) Lazy, tasty way to punch yourself in the face with protein if you're vegan and didn't manage to eat enough tofu/legumes/pumpkin seeds today.

This is my favorite protein bar!!! I have a few challenges with food- I'm vegan, can't have soy, nuts (except peanuts,) or bananas, and I have a swallowing disorder. It's SO difficult to find something I can use on-the-go that meets those challenges AND has the balance of macronutrients that I need. These bars do both of those things, plus they taste GOOD! Most bars, if I can even have them, taste horrible and/or are too difficult to chew and/or swallow for me. I do still have a little difficulty with swallowing these bars, and it's still a lot better than it is with other bars. I don't know what I'd do without these bars- they've helped me out SO MUCH!!!!

I am gluten-intolerant, dairy-intolerant and also avoid peanuts and soy. This makes it very difficult to find a high-protein energy bar! The Vega Chocolate Mint bars are packed full of protein, taste good and -- best of all -- only contain ingredients I can eat. As far as the other comments about it being dry, I have found that keeping a glass of water handy while I'm eating it helps with that. Definitely one of the tastiest energy bars I've ever had!

They are my favorite and unfortunately no longer being made. They are expired though.

By far the best vegan sport protein bars I've ever tried. Delicious, nice consistency, and high protein content. Perfect for after a workout.
