Great Bars!
I bought these to have a low calorie protein bar option without fake sugars like allulose, stevia, maltitol, erythritol, sucralose, xylitol, isomalt, and all that other artificial crap that is all the rage these days. One or more of these are in virtually all protein bars you can buy from the store. Those sweeteners sound like a miracle but they are low calorie because your body cannot digest them, meaning they sit in your intestines, ferment, and...well, read the hilarious but true reviews of the infamous Keto gummy bears on Amazon to learn more. And for people with sensitive stomachs, like me, they are a real problem. This is a very rare protein bar option without those sweeteners, and certainly is the lowest calorie one I've seen.Anyway, at 190 calories, these are great to have around for when you need quick protein but are trying to watch your weight. The Strawberry Shorty Got Cake one is delicious, by far one of the best tasting protein bars I've ever had.Bad news - they are small and not particularly filling, at least for me. So I'm left craving another one, which as a former overweight person I can't let myself have, LOL. Beyond the suffering caused by eating such a small portion of something so good, they also use palm oil. While it's RSPO (sustainable) palm oil, palm oil isn't the healthiest ingredient in the world that you could be eating. Indeed, each little bar will give you 20% of your daily recommended saturated fat. However, it won't cause sharp stomach pains, bloating, gas, explosive diarrhea and God knows what long term negative effects like its competitors will, so I'll take it. And as long as you're keeping it to 1 occasional bar per day and otherwise watching your diet, my guess is that you'll be ok.They also have 6 grams of added sugar, which is kind of a lot for something so small. But believe me when I tell you I'd rather have that than the fake sugars. Unfortunately, there's no getting around that unless you want to limit your diet to organic tree bark or something.Overall, a good bar that I would recommend. Just make sure you have a lot of will power and watch your consumption of these!

Great, healthy on-the-go snack!
The tests and texture and very yummy for a vegan protein bar, and a good amount of fiber too. I haven’t had a better protein bar that checks all of the boxes.

Yummy
Good protein calorie ratio. Very tasty for a small snack. Not really that filling but great for a quick bite. Price is a little steep but the quality is worth it.

Tastes Great
It has a nice strawberry smell the moment you open it, and it tastes great. It's a bit chewy but that is probably because it is high in fiber, which I need more of. I like the vegan aspect too because my stomach does not tolerate whey very well. Didn't see any seed oils on the ingredients. Definitely buying again!

Convenient sweet snacks!
Strawberry Shorty Got Cake: These bars are really special! They have a nice semi-chewy consistency with a thin vanilla/white glaze, and the strawberry flavor is prominent, but not artificial. You can smell it before you take a bite!Birthday Cake: This bar is pretty good, with some colorful sweet crystals on the top that add a little texture. The texture is smooth and vanillic, white glaze.Sweet & Dreamy, Cookies & Creamy: This has the white vanillic glaze with a chocolate interior, there are some chocolate "cookie chunks" within the bar for noticeable texture. The proportion of "cookies" to "cream" is like 80%/20%, and I wish it was a little more balanced, with a little more cocoa flavor to the cookie part, too. But overall I still like them.The price for a box of them here on Amazon is about the same as I can find in the stores ($2.50/bar), but more flavors are available online. My favorite flavors, in order, are: cookie dough, strawberry shortcake, birthday cake, and cookies & cream tied with macchiato.

Vegan Protein Bar
Hard to find protein bars that are not chewy, full of nuts and hard to eat. I had hoped this one was better, but it was so chewy that I had a hard time as a senior eating it. Taste was good, but not so good for trying to eat.
