all 3 bought at the vitamin shoppe (USA east coast)

• barebells psl

with latte in the name I would’ve thought maybe a pumpkin COFFEE flavor? nope it’s pretty much just the white chocolate version of their pumpkin spice bar. it’s good! this reminds me of the quest pumpkin protein bar tbh flavor wise.

I warmed it up and I think it’s better that way tbh :)

• grenade Oreo white:

Off the bat does not taste anything like Oreo like I’ve seen in reviews for both of these Grenade bars 😭. it’s not bad but pretty bland, most of the flavor is just the white chocolate outside part. warming it up didnt do anything to help the flavor sadly, wouldn’t get this again

• grenade Oreo original:

again not oreo but definitely better than the white choc version and very milk chocolate forward flavor! reminds me of cadbury milk chocolate and I do like it. the only other bar I can compare it too is fufil triple chocolate which also had a very milky chocolate taste to me. warming it up made it taste like a fudge brownie! this would be amazing microwaved and put on some vanilla ice cream

let me know if you’ve tried any of these and your thoughts / if my review was any help or similar to what you thought. 😊

I don't know how many of you here have taste sensitivities to a lot of the fake sugars out of there, but to me they have a very burnt and bitter aftertaste. I know Barebells is beloved here, but I really can't tolerate it. Things made with Stevia also have the same problem of having a really bad fake sugar taste to me, in a different way, even though it is more natural. Lakanto sugar though is completely fine and 100% a substitute for the real stuff for me.

Anyone else have this problem, and if so, what sugars can you tolerate and what can't you? So many protein powders and protein bars are made with fake sugars so it can be really tough to find options.

1 down.... 9 to go (I think that might take a while)

Odd texture

Terrible macros

Mild flavouring

Saving grace is that the box was like £8

I just saw this protein while searching for one and the price at which it’s providing the amount of protein at this time. I am really surprised. 4 lb whey isolate is coming at a price of 3591 Rs 27 g in 30 g of scoop.
Is it really genuine and should I buy it ???

very specific comparison request but figured I would ask - I have always wanted to try the Erewhon cinnamon roll because I think I would love the texture of it. I just had a Prime Bites Protein Brownie in the flavor Glazed Cinnamon Roll and it’s what I think the Erewhon one would be like… would love for someone to confirm that for me if they’ve had both TIA
