Product Review: Hooray for Hooahh
Summary: 4 Stars
These bars deliver on both the taste and energy. They chew better at warmer temperatures rather than colder temperatures.Product Review: Great Stuff
Summary: 5 Stars
These energy bars are different from any we have tired. We love the chocolate and the peannut butter. They really are great. Last weekend's golf tournament never would have been so easy in the Texas heat without a couple of these to give us the strength.Product Review: Excellent energy bar
Summary: 5 Stars
Bar tasts good and delivers an energy boost that lasts. Much much better than eating candy bars. Excellent buy and better for you than candy bars. I will continue to buy this product. Product Review: Tasty, But.....
Summary: 2 Stars
I was offered one of these while cycling and thought it was very tasty. So good, in fact, that when I got home I went straight to the web site show on the back of the wrapper to learn where I could buy them. Just above the web address is the nutrition and ingredients list. That was probably a mistake on the manufacturer's part as it gives you something to read while the site comes up. OOPS! This bar has a whooping 25% of your daily allowance of saturated fat! Not only that, but the fat is palm oil.
This might be acceptable for a soldier involved in prolonged strenuous activity but I doubt a cardiologist would recomend it to most of us. A commercially formulated product is more likely to fill the average person's need for a lower fat (and healthier fat) energy bar, than one formulated for extreme physical activity, sold for profit and marketed as a patriotic tribute to the troops. Bottom line: Read the label, weigh the health risks and if you want to support the troops, there has to be a better way than eating Hooah Bars.
Product Review: Troop Approved
Summary: 5 Stars
I love these because they're delicious and just the thing for getting me through a long workout. They're also perfect for traveling...easy to pack, and sustain you during an all day hike or touristy walkabout. A friend of mine in Iraq says he eats them twice a day, for the taste, and also because--and I agree--he trusts an energy product designed by the military for soldiers much more than an energy product designed by a private company for profit.
