Product Reviews of Soldier Fuel Energy Bars, Real Chocolate, 2.29-Ounce Bars (Pack of 15)
Product Review: Really disappointing
Summary: 2 Stars
I purchased a box of these after reading the 5 star rave reviews. Sorry, but these remind me of the first generation Powerbars. You have to chew them so much your jaw aches. I will not buy them again. The taste is tolerable. If you want a good tasting and good texture energy bar, try Clif bars.Product Review: THE BEST!
Summary: 5 Stars
Hooah bars are the best and they actually do what they ay they do....give energy that is LONG lasting. I eat them while biking and hiking or for lunch when I am in a hurry. I highly reccomend them!Product Review: Taste great, work great
Summary: 5 Stars
I've been eating these before my sports practices and during tournaments, and they've served me well. Chocolate and apple are delicious.Product Review: Tasty snack
Summary: 5 Stars
I really like these things. They're certainly chewy, so they can be a bit of a jaw workout, but they taste pretty good while having a lot more nutritional value than a candy bar, and they keep you going for a couple of hours. If only they were a little cheaper, say a dollar or less per bar, I'd probably go through them a lot more quickly than I do right now.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.
