Plenny Bar Chocolate v3.0 Reviews

4.4 Rating 1,410 Reviews
My experience so far is of a company with very friendly interface to its customers. The shipping delays for the twennybars are significant yet understanable at this early stage, but a related warning in the order confirmation wouldn't hurt.

I've gotten into the Twenny-bar and almost forgotten about regular Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake and having a few bags and a spare shaker in the car. The banana is a bit more creamier and tastier as the chocolate. Which in turn tastes a bit like brownies with only a hint of sugar. They are kind of hefty to eat, let alone 5 in a day, but I did grow used to eating a few a day, as I only substitute breakfast and lunch. My girlfriend didn't dislike them as much as Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake (which she refers to as "ground rock"). They are both neutral enough and have a nice texture. Very recommended for an active lifestyle or if you really want to spread out your Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake meals.

They taste really great. I like the chocolate more then the banana. But both are really good. It's perfect to eat them on the way and at work. I already placed my second order :D

I bought a 5-pack of each flavour to test, as I wanted to have an idea of what they were like. They are very convenient, as I'm sure many can imagine, as they can easily be eaten on the go. However, contrary to other reviews posted so far, I have to say I found them a little disappointing, as did my girlfriend. She found them far too chewy, to the extent that it caused jaw pain, and she didn't like the taste of either (with banana actually making her feel nauseous). She preferred chocolate, but found even that had an unpleasant aftertaste. I had a slightly more positive experience, in that I could easily tolerate the chewiness, and didn't experience an aftertaste. However the word that first comes to mind when I think of the bars is bland. The taste is extremely mild, far moreso than with the shakes, and while you do get a hint of the same form of banana flavour as used in the shake, it is very weak and at points completely unnoticeable. The chocolate is better - it tastes a lot more like real chocolate than the chocolate flavoured shake, perhaps more akin to uncooked, sweetened cocoa powder, but again, this taste is quite weak and underwhelming. Overall, if you're looking for a product that's as nutritious as the well known American competitor with added convenience, these may well be for you, but if you're wanting something with a great taste, they aren't the best.

The taste is great, it is not so sweet, the texture is nice, and of course much more practical than the shakes :) So far I have tried the banana one, I will try in the future also the chocolate variant.

These bars are amazing and I can finally feel like a normal person while on Jimmy Joy/Plenny shake. It's nice to have something to bite into; drinking your food can feel a bit dull and artificial after a while. They are chunky, tasty and super convenient, well worth paying a premium for. I just wish you would make them in strawberry instead of banana.

I placed an order on launch day for Twenny Bars but after contacting you was told that they aren't actually ready to ship yet. I'm happy to wait but it seems disingenuous to release when they aren't ready and be given no information on how long I'd need to wait.

The bars are crispy and not too dry. All I want is more flavors - I can't stand banana, so for now I'm stuck on chocolate. Overall happy customer
