Product Reviews of Soldier Fuel Energy Bars, Real Chocolate, 2.29-Ounce Bars (Pack of 15)
Product Review: "Tastes like a gourmet desert"...Not.
Summary: 3 Stars
I was looking for an energy bar with more protein than the regular Clifbar varieties.
It came down to the Clif Builders bar and this one.
This bar is very similar in texture to a Powerbar, which is to say it has that weird, glossy-oily uniform texture throughout with no layering or chocolate coating like the Clif Builder.
The flavor is okay, not great. And certainly NOT anywhere near a "gourmet dessert" as quoted by Dr. Phil on the packaging.
I really don't now how anyone could come up with that statement other than having a lucrative endorsement deal.
Speaking of quotes, I'd really like to know how this came out "#1 in taste tests". #1 compared to what?
On the other hand, that weird texture and lack of chocolate coating would make these ideal in high temperature situations where the Clif Builder would certainly become quite a messy undertaking. You could carry around some Hooah bars in your pants pocket without worry. If that's your application, maybe these would work for you.
In terms of value, since my application is occasional meal replacement I'd much rather spend a little more and have a Clif Builder to look forward to than a Hooah bar.
In my opinion the Clif Builder is by far the best tasting, best textured bar of it's type and has the most protein.
It's more expensive but it really does taste great. Just don't keep them in your pocket!
Product Review: Almost like "no-bake" cookies
Summary: 5 Stars
Do you remember those "no-bake" cookies that are easy to make with oatmeal, peanut butter, and chocolate? Well, these bars taste almost exactly like "no-bake" cookies. I'm not kidding. They are great! I first had them at Philmont Scout Ranch when I was working and hiking there a couple of summers ago. Well, these bars are hard to find at just any store, so I'm glad that I can order them at Amazon. I have tried other brands of energy bars and they just aren't as good. Most energy bars taste OK for one or two bites, but quickly begin to taste like cardboard. These are good from the first bite to the last. My husband loves the peanut butter flavor and I love the chocolate crisp, but we'll both eat which ever we have on hand. We buy several boxes a month as we are both avid bicylists and hikers.Product Review: An excellent energy bar that supports the troops
Summary: 5 Stars
I can't find anything to dislike about this energy bar. Good consistency, good taste (I've only tried the chocolate crisp), and delivers sustained energy as advertised. Plus it supports the troops! I may buy it again even if it's not on special!Product Review: Awesome
Summary: 5 Stars
I thought these taste great and they really do pack a lot of energy in them.Product Review: Awesome

These things may look like crap the first time you open it but they taste great. I love HooAh bars.
