| I think this product is great! Yes, it does crumble, but I just eat it in pieces. It does have a strong flavor--sort of like dark chocolate. And at 65 calories, it's a great little after dinner treat, sometimes I eat two. I would highly recommend this bar! |

| I love this bar. It is wonderfully unique in taste and texture in comparison with many other protein bars, and adds a nice variety to my healthy and "all natural" snack options. It is very chocolatey and has an excellent crunch factor. I also appreciate the high protein and low sodium contents. It is also versatile; you can eat it as a bar, or crumble it on top of yogurt or pudding...I even poured milk over the crumbled pieces the other day and made a pleasantly surprising chocolate cereal! Overall, this is a terrific product! |

| I honestly like it, save for the price.
It's tiny (exactly what I need for a nice after-meal treat), crunchy, not overly sweet and does not stick to your teeth as it is the case with many protein bars.
I don't mind that it crumbles - in fact, go ahead and crumble it in the bag, pour on your version of a whipped cream (real or fake), and you get a great dessert. |

| I love the cashew crisp! It actually keeps me full & it tastes great. I eat it in pieces since it reminds me of rice crispy treats when they don't stick together fully. The chocolate isn't as good though. Stick with the cashew & you won't be disappointed! |

| Personally I really liked the cashew crisp. It isn't a protein bar but being around 100 calories and full of fiber and good fat. I thought it was a great snack that will help with keeping you regular. |

| If you want a crunchy, chocolately, protein bar, this is the one. Low in calories, low in carbs. It is a dieters dream. A snack with protein that won't blow your diet!! |

| You know, I'm glad I tried these before reading the bad reviews. Yes, this bar does have a strong aftertaste. But it isn't a bad one or a chemical one. It tastes like very dark chocolate. The texture is kind of akin to a dark chocolate rice crispy treat. I was quite pleased with it, and the nutritional profile is good too. It's certainly far superior to the Soy Rocks bars. |

| Good crunch but slight aftertaste. Nothing that's unbearable though. Better choice than a candy bar! |

| I loved these as a before bedtime snack or a little something to keep in my purse in case I am out and get hungry. Some people didn't like that they fall apart, but I always tear my food into little bites anyway so that wasn't a problem for me. I will continue to keep these on hand! |

| This bar is totally unappetizing to look at and tastes worse. It barely holds together and is crumbly and weird. It has a strong soy flavor and an odd aftertaste. We do not recommend this bar. Took one bite each and threw the rest away. Yuck. |

July 27, 2009 Reviewer: Laura in California |
| I was first attracted to trying this because they are natural and don't contain sugar alcohol like maltitol that is in so many bars. I should have read the ingredients better though because of the modified low glycemic fruit concentrate. I had been doing so good on my low carb plan for so long then I tried one of these and bam, I felt awful--like a carb load would make me feel because of the blood sugar spike. Well sure enough this bar made my blood sugar spike. With in an hour I also began experiencing gastric upset (like in my pre low carb days) and started belching up a storm. I will probably feel ill for the next few days thanks to this bar. I can not recommend this to anyone doing a low carb lifestyle and certainly NOT anyone with blood sugar issues. |

| Save your money for some of the really good products from Dixie Diner. This "bar" was a bag of petrol smelling/chemically-charged chocolate tasting gravel. Hubby and I tried one bite each and neither of us could even eat that. Was just awful. To the trash can with that! Was very shocked that this was a product from the usually wonderful Dixie Diner. :(P |

| I am used to keeping a lower expectation when finding low-carb products... and can tolerate certain taste/texture differences in exchange for the health benefits. THESE ARE TERRIBLE. Like eating a dry, crumbly candle that was left in a drawer for too long. The only similarity it has to chocolate is the color. |

| I tried one bite of each of the flavors, then threw them out. I was pretty disappointed because Dixie Dinner hadn't let me down prior to this. All of the Dixie Dinner products that I have tried have been tasty and full of fiber, but didn't taste like they were. :) I'd highly recommend the trail mix sticky bar and the Peanut Carmel Flax bar that Dixie Dinner makes, but I won't buy these bars again! |

| This is one of the few Dixie Diner products that I would NOT recommend to anyone. I bought two, tried one bite of the first one and threw them both away. They arrived in pieces and tasted like chemicals. |
