Atlas Real Food Protein Bars, 20g Protein + 11g Fiber, PB Chocolate Chip

Ingredients are everything to me and this company has nailed that category. Why eat a protein bar that’s really a candy bar in disguise..candy bar or actual protein bar am I right? I love how you can actually pronounce what you’re eating here. The macros are also spot on - the DV for protein is actually a complete count (20grams x 2 = 40% of your DV) and there’s only one gram of sugar hallelujah. Most protein bars with sugar alcohols bloat me but I’ve had no problem with these. I will say, they’re a little dry and aren’t overly flavorful but I’ll take the health benefits and a decent taste over (again) something that’s full of chemicals but tastes like straight candy. I either put them in the fridge and get a little bit of a perfect bar vibe or microwave for a hot second and get a quest vibe. Much chewier but they actually support my health goals which is #1.

This bar takes some getting used to, but by the 3rd bar, I noticed I had completely come to love this bar. From texture to taste, it does not disappoint. The clean ingredients are really just the cherry on top! 1g of sugar? Yeah sign me up (for another box)! It has the suble sweetness that I LOVE, and it really wasn't something I expected from a protein bar, making it a great post-workout or mid-day pick me up when you don't want the sudden PANG of other bars with loaded sugar alcohols. I noticed minimal bloating after eating this bar too! It's comparable to the RXbar and larabar, with a lot more protein-- deserving to be called a protein bar! I'll be ordering as soon as I empty this box :)

As a vegetarian, I'm always looking for convenient, on-the-go protein snacks, but I end up wasting money on expensive, flavorless bars that feel like gritty chalk in my mouth.... ugh... 🥴 But Atlas protein bars are on another level! I can't believe I found a high-protein bar, with clean ingredients, that actually tastes good!! I received a box of the peanut butter chocolate chip bars, and I took them on a camping trip. With 20g of plant-based protein per bar, I had the sustained energy needed to hike through the bogs and fully enjoy our forest adventure. And the best part? I enjoyed what I was eating! Atlas protein bars are sweetened with monk fruit (which I love ❤️), instead of added sugar or sugar alcohols, so there is no energy crash or bad aftertaste. It's just a soft, chewy snack that helps fuel your day, while tasting like peanuts and chocolate! I will definitely be checking out additional Atlas flavors, and I will make sure I always have a box or two on hand during hiking/camping season. If you're looking to add some extra protein to your diet, be sure to try these high-quality, high-protein bars that actually taste good!

Tastes good with clean ingredients and high protein.

I'm an avid fitness and wellness advocate. I exercise 4-5 days per week and keep an eye on everything that I eat. I've been eating Atlas Peanut Butter Protein Bars as my go-to snack for post-workout fuel and for a healthy mid day snack, they're solid. They have 20 grams of clean, grass-fed whey protein and just 1 gram of sugar, they keep me full without the crash. The peanut butter flavor hits the spot. They have a rich peanut butter taste, with a hint of chocolate chips for fun. Texture-wise, it's chewy with a nice crunch, way better than those dry cardboard bars. Taste gets an 8/10. At this price, they're worth it for the quality.

Update(8/2023) I tried these a while back with the old label and decided to try the variety because I was told other flavors were better. I have tried 3 out of the pack now, peanut butter, mint and raspberry and the texture has been improved upon tremendously. I thought I’d hate the mint but it’s so mild and is perfect with the chocolate that my picky daughter actually snatched it and finished it off. Ingredients are still clean and they are so enjoyable now! I bumped them from 4 stars to 5! I love the fact that these bars have ashwaganda and clean ingredients and that they are keto friendly with no added sugar. The flavor is great (I got peanut butter chocolate chip) and I didn’t notice a bitter taste like others had mentioned.. the texture is where I trip up a bit, it’s not chewy like RX bars which stick to my teeth and are quite annoying to eat, it’s more of a stiff pressed bar, almost like it was supposed to be soft and dried up or supposed to be hard and softened up, that being said it’s the only “downfall” and still one of the better bars I have had! I took a bite and left it on the counter then kept coming back for another bite and another bite until the bar was gone. The texture won’t stop me from purchasing another pack and it has honestly grown on me. The price is steep at 2.50 a bar but compares to some of the store brands with a lot junkier ingredients.

Great protein bars they're not chalky or anything, a nice smooth and chewy consistency. Easily 5 stars... If they were still in the $20-$25 range. Since I started buying these about a year ago the price has been creeping up and has almost doubled in the year, big enough of a turn off to keep me from buying anymore of these. $40 for 12 bars isn't worth it, especially when you can probably find another protein bar that offers more for that price point.

So right from the first bite, it took a moment to realize that I'm not eating a brownie or candy bar. I've had protein bars that are low in sugar but seem like a candy bar and because of all the artificial sweeteners tasted somewhat sweet so it was palatable. However this is not horrible if you put it in the right perspective. I don't know what kind of peanut butter people eat but I tend to eat all natural so there is no added sugar so that's probably why I'm okay with this bar. And if the results yields based on 20 g of protein that I'm hoping it will then it's going to be a five star review because I will come back and change my stars. It's supposed to be a meal supplement and while it doesn't have all the flavoring that everybody would like, it's not horrible on the texture is fine it's not too hard it's not too chewy. I travel often and I need something that I can grab and keep with me in case I don't have time to get breakfast or something else. Also I'm not able to get as much protein in my diet as I need so this would be a good supplement when I don't have time to make a protein shake. Give it a shot with an open mind I got the peanut butter but I may go back and try another flavor as well.
