Healthy peanut butter cups ... yes!
How many times have you thought, "I wish candy was healthy to eat." Well, Atkins has answered your prayers and now we have Atkins Advantage Chocolate Peanut Butter Meal Bars to snack on. I swear to god that if my eyes are closed and take a bite it is just like my favorite chocolate peanut butter cup. Now that bite has great protein, fiber and includes 15% of the vitamins you need to maintain a healthy diet. Of course it is Atkins so there is still the same fat content due to the chocolate but the calories in one bar = 2 dark chocolate peanut butter cups with 3 times the protein and 4 times the fiber and only 1 g of sugar. I love the advantages of snack bars ability to provide healthy food on the go. Not all of them are good for you but the Atkins Advantage balance of protein, fiber and low sugar content can make for a tasty meal on the run or a quick lunch. I wouldn't substitute it for a granola bar for a hike since the chocolate will melt but it will make lunch seem more like dessert. After experiencing the Atkins Advantage Chocolate Peanut Butter Meal Bar, I don't understand why more companies aren't just making "healthy" candy. I hope this will start a new trend of decadent foods.

Extremely disappointed in this product!
When I think of "Atkins," I associate the name with weight loss and with healthy eating. So, I was very disappointed with this item. These bars, to me, are the opposite of "healthy." I was shocked when I read the label. Each bar has 250 calories, of which 120 are fat calories! Total fat is 22% and saturated fat is 40%! The list of ingredients sounds like a "who's who" of bad for you, unhealthy choices, including: palm kernel and palm oil, chocolate-flavored coating, peanut-butter flavored layer, artificial flavors, many many hard-to-pronounce or recognize names of other artificial ingredients. On top of that, it doesn't taste good! I'm sorry to say that I would not recommend this product to anyone!

    Not bad but kind of unremarkable
    Atkins Advantage Chocolate Peanut Butter Meal Bars are roasted peanuts and creamy peanut butter wrapped in chocolate. They aren't my personal preference in Atkins meal bars but they aren't bad. I find that they are a bit too rich, and almost syrupy/tangy, like molasses in taste more than chocolaty; yet, the flavor seems muted at the same time. They do help to satisfy hunger. The texture is kind of hollow and moist. I think the bars would benefit from more peanuts bits in the mix to give more texture and flavor. The still aren't bad in my opinion, but I do like some of the others better.

    My favorite flavor!
    This is the best flavor! I love Atkins. I know with their products that it will taste good and keep me feeling full. I have been craving peanut butter and chocolate on the Atkins diet, which isn't allowed during the introductory phase. This fulfilled all my cravings! It has 17 grams of protein and 3 net carbs per bar. Each bar has 250 calories and is very filling for a meal replacement. I usually have my about an hour after my morning breakfast shake. I like this value pack because it comes with 8 bars instead of the usual 5. These bars are delicious and the high protein content means that I will be full until snack time or lunch time without cheating on my diet!

    Very good and filling
    These are so good, and so cool. I am an avid low carb-er. These really do fill you up. They have good flavor, nutrition, and all for 3 net carbs. That's amazing. It's hard to find things that are truly low carb, and still worth eating when it gets to pre-packaged foods. Atkins does it very well. The chocolate looks a little thin, but don't let that worry you. It's rich enough and tastes good and the amount is perfect. These are so good, my kids, and grandkids have tried bites, and the teenager keep asking for them……….as a snack. Yes, he asks for them. I was shocked. He has eaten them when he is running late for school with a big glass of milk. He can have all the ©Reeses Peanut Butter cups he wants, and he asks for these. So I have to hide them when I want to keep them for my meal replacements. I usually use them for breakfast if I need them, and occasionally for a snack. But I really like them, and a lot of the Atkins products. This one happens to be a 5 star all around.

    Yummy and Filling
    These are really good tasting and filling bars. I don't know anything about Atkins, but I like chocolate and peanut butter, so I thought I'd try these bars. And I'm glad I did. The flavor is good. You can definitely taste the chocolate and peanut butter. The bar is on the dense side, and it is filling, as it should be with 17 g of protein. One serving is one bar. There are 250 calories, 9 g of fiber and for Atkins, 3 g of net carbs. The inside of the bar does not look like the picture on the front of the box. There is a thin layer of whatever it's supposed to be on top of the bar under the chocolate. But this is hardly there, and not runny or oozing at all, like it looks on the box. And you can see tiny bits of peanut, but nothing like what is on the box.

    Meal bar for on the go
    These are meal replacement bars with the Atkins brand. This is the eight bar value pack. They have a “peanut butter flavored” filling that does contain peanuts. This peanut butter flavored bar has a “chocolate flavored.coating”. They have a rather pleasant flavor, however, as with any dietary supplement, there is an after taste that I can't seem to identify. It's not horrible like the after taste you get with fake sweeteners. They do list in the Nutrition Facts that there is sugar alcohols and that may be where the after taste is coming from. The texture is good, it's not creamy, but it's not crunchy either. It is fairly soft, but firm enough to hold together pretty well. Unfortunately, my box got crushed a little and there is some crumbling in the individual packages due to that. As far as using it for a meal replacement, I'm not sure that the bar alone is sufficient to fill anyone. They don't give instructions as to whether you should eat them with anything else. I'm sure they expect you to drink a lot of water, which is what will fill you up. As I said, they are okay – definitely not horrible. I would recommend them.

    Sweet, healthy treat in flash!
    Atkins Advantage Chocolate Peanut Butter Meal Bar, 2.1 oz, 8 count- contains a generous count of 8 generously sized Meal Bars with a substantial amount of protein, fiber and loads of vitamins. They are quite tasty. Covered in chocolate, these are like a delicious candy bar that is not just empty calories, but nutritious. This will serve as a snack, an in-between meal, a great thing to put in my pocket on my way to the movies, maybe even as a breakfast. Sometimes, for whatever reason, we don't have the time, energy or interest to prepare or cook a meal. Yesterday I had one of these delicious Meal Bars, a piece of fruit, some coffee and some water as I lounged around the house surfing the net. I was quite satisfied until I met some friends for dinner several hours later. This may serve your needs as part of a good, nutritious, daily diet. Some nutritional programs recommend protein bars in between good, healthy, sensibly designed meals to maintain one's weight and health. The bar does pack 250 calories, so keep this in mind if counting calories and trying to lose or maintain your weight. Again, it's fairly sizable though and quite satisfying.. and delicious!

    Loaded with nutrition yet outrageously delicious!
    For anyone who wants the straight info first, here we go.... Pertinent Nutrition Information: Calories: 250 Fat Calories: 120 Saturated Fat: 8g Trans Fat: 0g Cholesterol: less than 5mg. Sodium: 190mg Potassium: 110mg Total Carbohydrate: 23g Dietary Fiber: 9g Sugars: 1g Sugar Alcohols: 11g Protein: 17g Each bar measures: 4 inches long x 1.75 inches wide x .50 inches thick. There are 8 bars in the box. The bars are completely covered on all sides with thick chocolate. It is a semi soft bar, and absolutely tastes and feels like a long "peanut butter cup" candy! It's really a thick bar, and unlike most of the other "low carb or energy bars", it is not thick and dry and doesn't make you go running for a drink to wash it down. This is amazing, truly! I've never tried these bars before but I closed my eyes and honestly thought I was eating a candy bar! I really thought I was cheating on my diet. The chocolate coating on this encases the bar completely. I mean, there isn't a single area where the bar underneath is peeking out of it! And it's really creamy and really rich and tastes like high quality milk chocolate! I'll tell ya one thing in all honesty though...these are really filling. Seriously, filling. And I'm going to let you in on a secret....I'm a "big" girl, and when it comes to chocolate, I can seriously put it away, I mean alot! So, I was thinking, hmmm maybe this bar will be okay for an appetizer but I don't see how this is going to fill me up like a full meal would. BUT IT DID! And it's now been 3 hours since I ate the bar, and I've only gone to the kitchen for a bottle of water, not a thing else, nor do I have a little "stash" of goodies in my room, lol. So when I say something is filling, I'm dead serious. And I'll also let you know that I've been trying various "protein" bars and "brownies" with protein in them as meal replacements lately, most are the usual name brand varieties yet, I have NOT tried even one of the Atkins' brand. I guess I felt I'd be "sucked in" to their program way of doing things and would be expected to partake of all of their foods to lose weight. But I've recently found that while some, just a few actually, of the other various brands of "meal replacement" or "protein/energy" bars are really gross (in the flavor or texture department, lol), most of them are really tasty and chocolatey as well as lots of nuts and different textures thrown in there as well. However, I haven't had any of them fill me up so completely that I don't want anything else, even hours later. And when I say something like that, I MEAN IT! So, would I recommend these bars to someone else? OH YEAH! Even if you're not really trying to lose weight, it would make a great meal replacement for someone on the go who's busy and can't stop for a proper meal. It has everything you need nutrition wise, and extremely low fat yet tastes absolutely decadent! Atkins, I'm impressed!
