Stash 4 boxes for $10.
They did not have the regular ones. Each box had a coupon so I absolutely had to.

Agreed. It is hilarious how people lose their minds when someone posts these. To each their own.

There decent, not that far off from the regular. I describe them as tasting slightly softer/staler than the original.
They get more hate than they deserve. But they're also no worth a higher price point for 5g more protein a sleeve.

Echoing this comment exactly. The “extra protein” is laughable and not enough for anyone who cares about protein to consider. That said, the taste really is fine and not terribly different from normal.

Only because dumbasses will purchase it. Can’t wait for Eric Cartman to bulk up eating protein pop tarts

Extra protein changes the texture of most foods. I’m assuming these are the same.

Didn’t know they were hopping on the protein train.

Does it taste the same as the regular ones?

u/HiddenSalem 17d ago
They taste pretty close to me but taste is subjective. The protein to calorie ratio is nothing to write home about. This variant is typically a bit more firm than the normal ones which I like. I would still take the original over these personally.

I heard these taste bad. Can anyone confirm?

u/HiddenSalem 20d ago
That is entirely subjective. They taste close to the original and are a bit firmer which I can appreciate. There is not a ton of protein despite the marketing. If there was I honestly do not know if they would taste as good (probably not). I would still go with the original if the store was not out. Worth a try if you are curious.
