 Tastes like chocolate July 1, 2008
These energy bars taste great, not like shaped cardboard at all =). They look a little less appealing then I would expect but they make up for it in satisfaction. One bar fills you up and satifies your sweet tooth.
Clif Bar Energy Bars -- Oatmeal Raisin Walnut June 27, 2008
The bars are absolutely wonderful. I purchased these for my diabetic niece. She has a half a bar before going to bed at night to keep her blood sugar in a good range for the night. We were looking for something since she was having severe low blood sugar swings during the evening and these bars have been terrific and she loves the taste of the "oatmeal raisin walnut" bar. So many of the other bars for diabetics taste awful and she just could not get them down. The Clif Bars have been a life saver.
All natural snack June 25, 2008
I like Clif bars because the ingredients are purely natural. If you compare the ingredients to other "energy" bars, you will see what I mean. These taste great, have enough fiber and protein to fill you up for a while and definitely help you to sustain energy.
 Great! I do have flavor preferences.... June 24, 2008
Some of the complaints about the Clif bars seem kind of silly to me. These aren't meant to be all that you eat during the day. They're a filling 250 calorie snack or a decent breakfast with some juice or fruit . They have 5 grams or so of fiber and 10 grams or so of protein, which is great. Um, yes they have salt and fat, but not large amounts. They are 20% fat, which is great unless you're on an extremely low-fat diet. They have 6% of your daily sodium, so if you ate 8 clif bars to get yourself 2000 calories for the day, you'd have less than half the recommended sodium maximum. They are gluten-free and dairy-free. They're not that expensive when you consider the size and the "special ingredients." As has been mentioned, they are on the dense side, but not exceedingly so, and they're less chewy than a granola bar.
So far, I've tried 6 flavors of Clif bars. In order of preference, they are: cool mint chocolate, chocolate peanut butter crunch, oatmeal raisin walnut, black cherry almond, chocolate chip, peanut butter crunch. All of them were fine, and I could eat them, but the peanut butter crunch was a bit too sweet for my tastes. The chocolate chip was fine, but didn't impress me as much as the others. The remaining 4 I'd buy again. My favorite, the cool mint chocolate bars have a subtle mint taste, definitely there, but not overly strong. These aren't super sweet like a cookie, but do have a nice taste. The black cherry almond reminds me of a nutri-grain bar in flaor. The chocolate peanut butter crunch and oatmeal raisin almond both are not too sweet and a nice flavor. I'm looking forward to trying more flavors in the future.
I do wish that Amazon had a real variety pack, like with 1-2 bars each of all the flavors. And, it'd be nice if Amazon sold a single 12-pack, as 24 of the same kind is A LOT. The only reason I was willing to risk getting 24 each of 2 new flavors I'd never had was that they had a special offer on energy bars at the time, so that I got extra money off. At regular price, I'd be unlikely to be willing to buy 24 of the same kind in an unknown flavor. The fact that you have to buy 24 identical bars (except for the variety pack which has 8 each of 3 similar flavors) is what made this review 4 star instead of 5 star.
Delicious June 22, 2008
These bars are the best. They taste delicious -- plenty of dairy-free chocolate. They give me good, clean energy. (And the Amazon subscription service is a great way to get them, too.) They have a bit of cinnamon in them. Highly recommend.
