I’ve had whey protein that tastes good and in multiple forms (shakes, bars, etc) but I’ve gotta admit none of them tasted quite as bad as this. It starts off ok - the first bite tastes good and you think you’ll finish the bar thoroughly satisfied having gotten your complement of protein. Yet when you do actually chew and swallow that first bite, you’re left wondering how you’ll go through all the 12 bars. The taste is really awful after a few chews and the after taste is downright disgusting. I’m hoping to find myself in situations where I’m properly famished - so much so that I find an excuse to put another of these bars in my mouth and get my moneys worth

I reached out to Amazon to report that, despite selling two standard 6-pack boxes, the main image showed two 12-pack boxes with the "12 pack" icon in the bottom right hand corner to "12 bars total". If you aren't keeping watchful you're going to think you're getting 24 bars. They agreed with me and promised to have this fixed. I just noted today they did change the image. It still shows two 12-pack boxes like before but they graphic-ed out the bottom right hand corner of the box entirely, and put a little icon in the top left instead saying 12 bars. My first image is their old one- my second one is what you're really getting. It's not any better.

Disappointed it is false advertising it say “6 pack, 2pack”. I was thinking I’m getting 2 boxes like I normal buying in store.This is not 6 pack just one box with 6 bars.Better go to Costco or Sams and by 3 pack. Because that what you getting. 1 box from the 3 pack from Costco.Definitely not ordering again! I lost money!!

I'm only writing this to inform - not gripe about these 'Pure Protein Power' bars.I absolutely love these but I had a subscription for these and had an extra two boxes on hand when this particular order arrived so I didn't think anything of it.Two months later, today, I open one of the boxes I received and noticed the white powder around the edges. These being chocolate, I knew the white powder was likely from them being old or having been in the heat then cooled or both.My point here is that you need to open at least one of the bars from each order when you get them and not wait until you have finished all the other boxes.This is especially true if when you order them, they are being delivered when it is warm/hot outside.Just to put a point on this - I've order 12 boxes over the last year and only this one order had this problem so these are great bars. Had I opened one when I first got these, I'm sure Amazon or the folks at Pure Protein would have happily replaced them.- Steve D.

I have tried various protein bars to boost my muscle growth post-workout. I really hate protein powders. They just don't taste good with water, and I can't drink milk so it really limis my options to get the protein I need.Pure protein bars don't have the highest overall protein out of all the bars out there. You will easily find other bars with 30+ grams of protein. However, many of those bars easily have twice as many calories, and as I am trying to lose weight overall while gaining lean muscle mass, I don't really care for 350, 400 calorie protein bars. Most Pure Protein bars have 200 calories or less, while chocolate deluxe only has 180. I think Quest bars are comparable but they don't taste nearly as good (if you think Pure Protein bars are a little chalky, Quest tastes like straight up chocolate chalk) and I have heard horror stories of finding actual debris in those bars. They also cost more.No low calorie low sugar protein bar is going to taste like a special k or other brand bar that isn't specifically formulated for high protein / low calories. But these don't taste bad at all, considering. If you factor in the great price, I don't think you can go wrong if you're looking for a protein bar that maximizes the available protein while keeping calories low.
