Power CrunchChocolate Mint

These are my favorite protein bars and this flavor is by far my favorite. The price isn't beatable...I have looked everywhere!Sorry Girl Scouts. I feel bad, I really do, but Power Crunch just one-upped you in a MASSIVE way with their new mint chocolate protein wafers bars.They literally taste identical to Thin Mints — across the board from consistency and delicate crunch to explode-off-the-tongue refreshing mint chocolate taste — without any of the degenerative bad fats, artificial sludge, or fat-inducing sugar.Power Crunch made a cameo at #7 in our protein bar power rankings, BUT that excludes taste. Hands down, they’re the most insatiably delicious protein bars I’ve ever had — brilliant, clean flavor; none of that chemically-induced artificial sweetener aftertaste; with a surprisingly delectable wafer-like crunch. They’re that incredible, to the point of being dangerously delicious.It’s seriously a challenge not to ravage the entire box of creme de menthe bricks all at once. Although if you did, you’d be shot up with 13g of HQ whey protein isolate per bar. Could be worse.Definitively, they’re the best tasting protein bars on earth. I’ll put that claim vis-a-vis any other protein bar, plus I’ll go further — they’re better than Snickers, Twix, or Mounds; smashed into one Frankensteined super-bar.Power Crunch’s Nutritional ProfilePower Crunch, power crunch bar, power crunch protein bar, power crunch protein bars, power crunch wafer, power crunch protein, power crunch mint chocolate, power crunch bar, power crunch nutrition, power crunch ingredientsSure, Power Crunch bars aren’t perfect — the soy lecithin, caramel color, and saturated fat content jump off the label immediately — but they’re far more well-balanced-nutritional-powerhouse than over-processed-chemical abomination.It all starts up front with the beyond-phenomenal sugar profile. They’re extremely low in sugar (5g per bar), laced with ZERO gut-turning sugar alcohols, and devoid of all artificial sweeteners outside of stevia. Plus the protein content comes exclusively from the pinnacle of the protein world, whey protein isolate — a high biological value, easily absorbed, highly usable form of protein; not soy, hemp, or any of the inferior variants. And if you’re low-carbing, they’ve only got 10g per serving.Still, the saturated fat content is a BIG red flag that immediately freaks most people out. Breathe. It comes exclusively from palm kernel oil — a plant-based oil, very similar in composition to coconut oil, that contains over 50% of its fat content from lauric acid. Lauric acid is a medium-chain fatty acid (MCT or MCFA, for short) that’s easily burned off and used as energy, and may potentially boost immunity, rev metabolism, and improve body composition.123While in-depth research on palm kernel oil specifically is non-existent, I’m personally more-than-comfortable with it given the HUGE advantages on the sugar & protein dimensions.Don’t sweat it.The Bottom Line on Power Crunch BarsPower Crunch, power crunch bar, power crunch protein bar, power crunch protein bars, power crunch wafer, power crunch protein, power crunch mint chocolate, power crunch barIf you’re a mint chocolate fiend, looking for a fresh, on-the-go protein bar/meal replacement, or simply interested in dabbling with a new protein-packed, healthy indulgence, Power Crunch bars are a nutritious, muscle-constructing treat.

Ever since my local grocery store stopped selling my favorite protein bar I have been on the hunt for the perfect replacement. After trying all the other name brand bars or avoiding some because of high sugar or low protein I have finally found my new go to in these bars! Here's a break down of what I think:Pros- DELICIOUS!!!! On the package they call these "cookies" instead of bars and indeed that is an accurate description! Those chocolate, vanilla and strawberry wafer cookies from my youth instantly come to mind when I eat these, except these are WAY better for you and much tastier too!- Made with real and good stuff and none of the crap. The most important thing to me was that the protein number be high and the sugar number be low. While calorie-wise and fat-wise these are higher than other bars I've tried, don't let that fool you. These are the more healthy fats for the most part and they have less than HALF the carbs and ONE THIRD the amount of sugar of those other name brand bars which is what really gets you. Also these bars don't use any sugar alcohols which some people have a bad reaction to. The protein is higher or comparable to other bars and is a really high quality whey protein which I prefer to soy protein isolates used in others.- The other important thing for me was that they fill me up between meals and these are excellent at that! Way better than any bar I've had before! I eat practically the exact same thing every day. After my breakfast drink in the morning at usually have a protein bar and water around 10am, then an apple around 12:30 and lunch around 2:30. Usually by 1 I'm ravenous again, but with these bars I'm not even hungry again by my usual Apple time! One bar and a bottle of water could absolutely serve as a meal replacement in a pinch.- These are light and easy to eat! Some p bars are so dense and thick and can feel like you're chewing and swallowing and protein brick. These are such a delightful deviation from that!! You don't feel weighed down at all after or while eating one of these! The crispy wafer is such a refreshing and innovative twist on the typical protein bar delivery method. Perfect for pre or post work out!Cons:- These are MESSY MESSY MESSY! That may or may not be a problem depending on where you are when you eat it, but I would caution against eating on the go in your car unless you want water and chocolate bits all over your lap and car seats. I have been eating these for a while now and while I've gotten better at it, there is still no great way of eating these without any crumbs or mess. They also tend to melt very easily so if you have them shipped to you, watch the delivery status carefully and grab them off your doorstep the moment they are delivered in the summer!All that said, I LOVE these bars and will not eat anything else now! My favorite flavor hands down is peanut butter fudge followed closely by these mint chocolate ones. Think Girl Scout thin mint cookies. I can finish off a full sleeve of thin mints like a wolf taking down a caribou. This is the perfect alternative! They give your sweet tooth satisfaction while leaving you feeling full and giving energy. I also really like the triple chocolate as well. I have very high recommendations for these protein "bars"!! I did NOT receive this item free or at a discount

This is my fav protein bar, despite not having a ton of fiber, only 1 gram. The taste, texture, whey protein mix, sweetness, has all been perfected. No artificial coloring that I am aware of, we get enough of those elsewhere. They are a legitimate wafer bar. Not the typical fiber chewy ones.I love all flavors of this bar, they sweet taste is not fake and they are quick and easy to eat. However, they are NOT filling so you may be tempted to eat another, but in that case just mix some protein powder and you're all filled up.They are best used for a night snack or dessert. And the quality whey protein is superb. It's just like a shake except add an additional 9g of fat, 4 sugar, 7 carbs. I am 10% body fat and these fit my diet nicely, 2 a day or so keeps me going between meals and after.Best flavor, probably the peanut ones, but it is good to mix up your variety as to not get bored. None I have had are gross or funny tasting. All taste real.Buy them under $20 and they are a good deal. Hunt around.

This was a first time purchase. Wanted to try it as reviews were good. Mint flavour tasted refreshing and is almost like the usual wafer chocolate. It doesn't replace a meal, but it does help when you're on the go and need a good snack. Although it has little sugar, it still tastes good. May consider another purchase after this batch finishes. It is pricey but I guess if it's good for you then why not.
