“The Zone bars are so great. They taste just like a candy bar and our delicious with the added bonus of actually being nutritous for you. They have 12 to 14 grams of protein per bar. 190 to 210 calories per 1.76 ounce bar.”

“Granted, I paid for 1 at a Gas Station as quick grab, but after I took a closer look at the nutrition pannel, I wouldn't even have a bite. I made my fiance eat it instead. I think I got the Chocolate Chip flavor, and it was full of bad carbs and empty calories. I just couldn't fathom wasting my daily value on something that probably would have made me flush from the sugar. Thumbs down”

“I purchased this on a clearance rack at GNC - thus the bargain price. I sampled the Chocolate Peanut Butter. Yum! Tastes like a chewy peanut butter candy bar! Even my son liked them. I plan on purchasing all that the GNC store has while they are still forty-five cents.”

“I love most of the Zone Perfect Bar flavors. I love the new Chocolate Almond Raisin. Totally yummy!! These do pack over 200 calories each and don't pack as much protein as I'd like (around 15 per bar). But as an afternoon pick up or snack I think they are a good substitute for junk food. Also they now have some in a smaller size which is more feasible for new post ops that can't eat the bigger bars.”

“Peanut Butter and the Chocolate Mint were my favorites. And now I have to add the Chocolate Almond Raisin as quite good also, althou, sometimes the almond flavoring is a bit strong and the bar too sweet. But it really satisfies my sweet tooth, when I'm craving something. The only protein bar I've found that's close to how good these are is not a Zone bar but "Balance Gold" in the Caramel Nut Blast flavor - not bad for protein bars!”

“Three words: CHOCOLATE ALMOND RAISIN. This is the most awesome flavor, and it doesn't taste how it sounds. It has nearly whole almonds in it, crunchiness, no discernable raisins, really, but it is soooooo good. I think what makes it, is that it is sweet, but not overly so. Half of one of these with my starbucks in the morning, starts my day off with major satisfaction and kicks hunger in the butt for hours. If I'm feeling really hungry, I eat the whole bar! :-D This starts nearly every day for me. TRY THIS FLAVOR. You wont be sorry!”

“I especially love the Chocolate Caramel bars. All of them are pretty good. Because they are like Rice Crispie bars, they break down into small pieces and stay down. I use these as my morning snack. They add 16 grams of protein which helps since I have a difficult time getting all I need.”

“When I was pregnant with my son, I had diabetes. I went to a counselor/nutritionist each week and learn so much about the correct balance of carbs/proteins/fats from her and the importance of that balance to control blood sugars without insulin. The Zone Bars are PERFECT for that. You want to have a good about of protein after surgery but you MUST balance it with the appropriate amount of carbs and fats for your body to be most efficient. So, for those thinking there are too many carbs/sugars...there isn't!! A quick way to check is to take the amount of protein (in grams) and divide by 7. Then take the amount of carbs (in grams) and divide by 10. Those two results should be almost equal for a good balance. So for a zone bar with 22 gm carbs and 16gm protein...the result is 2.2 carbs to 2.3 protein! PERFECT!!”

“This was the first protein bar that I could actually eat without wanting to chug a gallon of water after each bite or spit it out. I recommend the Chocolate Peanut Butter or Chocolate Caramel Cluster ones. The fruity/yogurt ones are not so great. They really help with keeping those carb/sugar cravings under control :)”

“I was using this product post op. What I didnt realize was it was extremely high in sugar and carbs. I also didn't realize that the amount of protein it advertises is mostly a type of protein that is not able to absorb into the body. A total waste for a gastric-bypass patient. Thought I was doing the right thing with my protein intake only to find out from a nutritionist that I definently was not gettin much (if any) protein from these bars!”

“These bars taste terrific. They have around 16 grams of protein which is not as much as most protein bars, but they are not at all pasty and the chocolate on them actually taste great. My recommendation on flavors are the chocolate peanut butter, chocolate carmel crunch, and the lemon. They are great!!!”

“I had a chocolate peanut butter bar. I thought it tasted pretty good. Kinda like a Whatchamacallit candy bar with a after taste. Not too bad of an after taste, but not as good as a Whatchamacallit. I will continue to buy them.”

“The Zone bars have more protein than Some of the other bars and are a decent portion size (1.76 oz). Their Lemon Yogurt bar is far supperior to any other brand of lemon bar that I have tried. The others were gritty but this one has crunchies in it that make it more like a breakfast bar. the other flavors I have tried are yummy as well.”

“I really like these bars. I only eat the strawberry and the apple. The strawberry is my favorite. It tastes like the crunch berrys from cap'n crunch. I eat them to help with the protein. I can not tolerate any other form or protein I have tried. I love these little bars. ”

“The taste is GREAT!!! It actually taste like a Whacmacallit candy bar. However, I don't think this is the one I will stick with it because it is high in carbs and sugar.

“Duane Reade in NYC has these for 1.49 and sometimes .99 or buy 1 get 1...I love the zone bars. On average, they are 210calories, 22g of carbs, 7g of fat and 16g of protein. They are very un-like the typical protein bar, they kill any sweet cravings I have and taste like a candybar to me. I love the Double Choclate, Choc Peanut Butter (fav), Choc Mint, Fudge Graham, Raspberry Choc, Vanilla Creme.”

“These bars are excellent. I don't dump, so they really have helped up my protein. Lots of vitamins and minerals as well. They do have some carbs and fat, but at 16 grams of protein for most bars and 200-210 calories, they are perfect for breakfast or lunch. They're dense and tasty:) Fill up my pouch with no hunger for hours after.”

“I have tried most flavors of the Zone Perfect bars. These are very tasty, like a chewy granola bar. More like a snack than a meal replacement. Far too much sugar for me though. I thought I was going to dump on it. 16g of protein and 22g of carbs (13g sugars) makes this only kind of worth it. I guess it's healthier than grabbing a real candy bar, but at 210 calories, you're better off nibbling on jerky or string cheese. ”

“I tried the Chocolate Peanut Butter and the Choclate Mint. The peanut butter one was OK. Not great but certainly not terrible. However, the Chocolat Mint was FABULOUS!! I am a mint chocolate lover and was so happily surprised that it tasted dso good! I went to the website to find the price and it is cheaper for me to go back to Krogers and buy them on sale for 97 cents. So, off I go to get more!!”

“I actually have Zone Perfect protein powder. It is flavorless, but does add a bit of a brown color to things. I mix it with another protein shake, with my creamed soups, cream of wheat and with Carnation I B. One scoop is 7g of protein. Not too bad when every gram can be a struggle!!!”

The fudge graham is just like eating a candy bar! I have tried other protien bars and they are chewy with a bad after taste but not these protein bars. I also like the Chocolate Peanut Butter and the Strawberry Yougart one as well. They have a chocolate mint one but since I don't care to much to mint I haven't tried it.”

“The best tasting bar out there. I have tasted Strawberry Yogurt, Chocolate Raspberry, Chocolate Graham, Chocolate Mint (hard to find in this area). The only flavor I avoid is the lemon yogurt. It tasted a bit, how should I say, chemically? NOt good, just simple that. The others are great. 16 grams of protein. I do not eat it all at once. I normally split it up through the day. Nice pick-me-up at work.”

“I love these bars. There's no nasty after taste and it's not chalky like most protein bars. Due to the somewhat high sugar content (13-15 grams depending on the flavor)I can usually only tolerate eating half at a time. My favorite flavors are Chocolate Graham and Peanut Butter & Chocolate.
