“Really happy the vegan bar is out.
Taste is great imo, balanced but distinctly caramel-ly, with great crunch. Only slight salt flavor.
Really satuates for a long time, too.
Getting many more for sure, and looking forward to other flavors!”
“The first bars were bad in taste, with the new ones you almost removed this weird after-taste, which is a big improvement. Shape is a bit better and I like that it is a different flavour, the old ones had only 2 flavours which didn't change in years. In general I would say an improvement, but still not my first choice. Especially the new shake formula is much better in taste.
About size: 400kcal is not a meal for me, I need at least 600, so it will never replace an actual meal. But its a very good start.”
“The new Plenny Bar comes with a stronger flavor, less grainy texture, albeit more compact/dense hardness.
I feel satisfied while savouring the sweet blend of salted caramel, which makes me give more and more bites and chews to that amazing bar.
The bite size has to be smaller than with the Twenny Bar, for it's not as soft, though it actually helps me by not devouring immediately, turning the whole experience more satiating.”
“These new Plenny Bars are exactly what I wanted, after the mixed feelings that old Joylent shakes gave me (they were OK but not chewing means not feeling really like "eating").
Taste is perfect - not too strong, not too inconsistent, and luckily not sweet, as the quantity would be too much.
Delivery perfectly in time.
Great work guys!”
“This is a definite improvement over the first bars. The flavour is full, but not too over powering, texture is spot on for what you want, and it feels like just the snack when you need it. The smell is great, but it's amazing that it doesn't taste as sweet as it smells.”
“I love bars that taste like a Snickers och Twix with some added protein. If that's what you're after, this isn't it.
What this is however, is a less sweet, more filling bar, that is the first one I've ever tried that actually WORKS as a meal replacement, in the sense that you actually get satiated from it.
I think this come downs to two things:
1. It tastes quite salty, with only a bit of sweetness. Those Snickers and Twix's are great for the time you're eating them, but once you've had one, you just want another, and anthoer, and so on. This one, I can actually feel like I'm done after having just one.
2. It is VERY chewy. Not like taffy, but you need to use your jaws quite a bit for each bite, you can't just swallow it down like said candy bars. The act of chewing contributes to the feeling of satiation in a positive way, your brain kinda gets tat you have eaten, in a way it doesn't when you don't chew as much.
If you read "caramel" and expect a Twix, you're out of luck. But if you want a real meal REPLACEMENT, this is a fantastic bar!
It is also really good as a post-workout, since if you're like me and feel like you could eat a whole buffet after a hard workout, this will give you a good mix of nutrients, as well as tame the immense sensations of wanting to eat everything in your path :)”
“I get this for having lunch at work and saves me money and health instead of having a crappy sandwich like everyone there. Also, I prefer this to the shakes for the chewing feel. The bar is pretty fulfilling and tastes nice. Would be even better if it was kinda cheaper, but that should eventually happen if this market grows.”
