Review - Bonk Breaker


Brand:  Bonk Breaker
Flavor:  Peanut Butter & Jelly
Where to get it:  here @ BonkBreaker.com 

                I’m just going to cut right to it with this little dude – the jelly is non-existent and the peanut butter is dry as a bone despite the presence of honey and 9 grams of fat. Nutritionally it’s not terrible – but it’s just so dang DRY. As I chewed, my saliva moistened it into a sort of paste in my mouth that was actually really hard to swallow. The heavy peanut butter taste wasn’t unpleasant, but the texture on this bar is just unmanageable for me.

Review - VPX Zero Impact Peanut Butter & Jelly


Brand:  VPX Zero Impact
Flavor:  Peanut Butter & Jelly
Where to get it: here @ Amazon.com

                Here we have another terrible-tasting, 400-calorie bar bomb. The amount of these on the market blows my mind. Even if I was some huge guy who could eat 400-calorie bars because I’m in the gym every day, you know, going so hard, I feel like I could think of so many better-tasting, more fun ways to eat 400 calories. Shoot, you could eat 2 and-a-half packets of Peanut Butter & Co.’s The Bee’s Knees peanut butter for about the same amount of calories – just as quickly – so don’t give me the convenience excuse. I just don’t get it. Yuck.

Review - Labrada Peanut Butter & Jelly Lean Body Gold Protein Bar



Brand:  Labrada Nutrition
Flavor:  Peanut Butter & Jelly Lean Body Gold Protein Bar
Where to get it: here @ Bodybuilding.com

                It has gotten to the point where if I have a bro bar to review, I put it off as long as possible. They are just always so bad! And when they aren’t completely repulsive, they are never something I would eat again on purpose. I feel like the addition of the peanuts on top of this bar made all the difference. I can’t lie, it was totally delicious. The cross-section shows a clear separation of peanut butter, jelly, and peanut/chocolate topping. There is no strong sugar alcohol taste, and there is also no weird whey protein taste. That being said, this IS a bro bar - 350 calories in the whole thing, so this is a whole meal (not a snack) if you’re trying to lose weight. This is the best of the bunch I've tried, for sure.
