(NOTE: People's sense of taste often changes in the weeks right after bariatric surgery as they adjust to new dietary routines. This can influence the ratings on the “taste” scale below.)

“This is a meal replacement bar marketed primarily to diabetics working on weight loss. It's not (IMO) really appropriate for postops, as the carb-to-protein ratio is way too high. Happily, the version I sampled (Chewy Chocolate Peanut) was both tasty and satisfying. It's said to taste like a Snickers bar, and I'd say there's a resemblance. The soy aftertaste kind of ruins the illusion though :-). Nonetheless, it's a better value and a MUCH better taste than a lot of other meal replacement bars, and I felt satisfied from it a lot longer than from some others I've tried. ”
