Keto Bars

My little treat. I stick to a strict ketogenic diet due to a severe autoimmune condition. This pretty much means only meat, fish, eggs, a few green veggies, and fats. As a whole, my body feels best and functions best this way. Sometimes you want quick food and having something packaged on hand really helps out. I decided to try these bars out because the ingredients were doable for me and the carb content is lower than a lot of others. I read through the different reviews and noted that a number of people had issues with the texture, taste etc, but decided to see for myself. I am glad I did. I love these little bars and look forward to having one every day! Being on a strict diet and giving up all the 'yummy' foods probably is part of it, but I also really love the taste. The peanut butter chocolate chip are by far my favorite flavor. Smear some butter on one of these and pour a cup of hot tea or coffee for a delightful snack. I understand what it's like to try to find the 'one' by sampling many that are a lot like bricks of sand covered in chocolate. Expensive and frustrating to say the least!If you are looking for a good keto/protein bar, I would definitely give this one a try. You won't be disappointed!

I was really excited about this product as my husband takes a bar every morning for breakfast. We usually buy RxBars, Primal Kitchen and most recently his favorite PureTrim bars (very pricey), so when I saw Perfect Keto was offering a bar I jumped in and bought a box. We love their MCT oil powder, MCT oil, etc. BUT these bars are a disappointment. Firstly, way too cloyingly sweet, with stevia, which lingers on the tongue and fills your whole mouth with sweetener flavor. I know “too sweet” is a relative term because every person may have their idea of sweet, but too both my husband and I, not a fan. The bar itself with the almond butter base had a pretty good texture, maybe a bit chalky, my husband said, but that could be because his was cold at the time of eating it. We are returning the product as we will not be able to eat these with the current sweetness level. Hopefully, in the batches to come from Perfect Keto they will review the recipe and realize that people who are keto, have cut sweet as a whole from their diet, so they don’t crave it, so very little sweetener will go a long way. With natural nut butters I would appreciate salt versus sweet. To end, I bought these bars because I believe in the company, and loved the list of ingredients, collagen, coconut oil, etc. Having been keto/Paleo for over 4 years I thought this may be a nice pack and go, or dessert option, but unfortunately, not for us!

Well, I can’t say I wasn’t warned. I read all the reviews and bought them anyway.I needed some clean keto that could travel well. The ingredients in this bar were as clean as I could find, and a friend uses them for travel, so I ordered them.I first noticed the size of the bars when I took one out of the package. The wrapper is more than an inch and a half longer than the bar inside. Did they think we wouldn’t notice? But since the bar itself is kind of a chalky and disappointing texture, I was actually glad it wasn’t larger.The taste isn’t awful, the ingredients are fairly clean and it will fill the bill when I need protein in the air. I think the price point is too high, but until someone comes up with a healthier, tastier bar for less, I will be buying this one.

I am a very busy person, and honestly don't have the time or patience to research and fix keto bombs or treats. Following a meal plan to stay in ketosis when you are always on the run is hard enough, so when I found these last week, I have to say I was honestly excited. When I first opened the bar, my excitement dropped as they aren't anything like what a protein bar looks like, and biting into it was a weird experience. BUT after remembering why I was eating it and not a regular protein bar, my thoughts changed. They are a bit of an acquired taste, but now after eating them for my mid morning snack for 3 days, I actually look forward to the salted caramel taste! So give them a chance, eating Keto has changed my mindset about how a meal plan should look, and after you eat a couple of these, you too will look forward to the taste! I have yet to taste the other flavors and wish that there was a trial pack with one of each flavor without having to buy the 12 pack... (hint, hint Perfect Keto!). I hear others like the lemon poppy seed, so it might be the next one that lands in my cart. Enjoy!

We received a $100 Amazon gift card so I thought I'd splurge on these bars and see if I could find something that I could grab and go. I got the Salted Caramel ones which I'd say aren't bad for a dense bar. I've had much worse with ingredients that weren't has good as the ones on the list. It's a good snack.That being said, I was surprised though that when I got my box of 12 that the packaging is a bit misleading in that the wrappers where almost twice the size of the actual bar inside. Every one of them was this way. That was a bit of a shock considering the cost per bar comes out to about $3.33 each and the wrapper was just over half filled. Maybe my box was a fluke but looking at all the pictures of them being held they appear to be more full than mine were.It could be that buying the correct size wrappers and boxes for these would have been more custom and thus more expensive that the average size bar and box packaging.Pros -Flavor was goodMacros are greatGrab and GoCons -Misleading packaging sizeRelatively expensive for what you getIf I have another gift card I'll probably try another flavor and see if I like it but will probably stick to making doing the homemade Keto bars to make that $3.33 stretch a bit further per bar.
