I just finished tasting a protein bar called Elite Gourmet. I was VERY skeptical. I didn’t even want to try it, in spite of its delicious sounding flavor, caramel toffee crunch. ( I do have a serious week spot for ANYTHING caramel.) The deal is, I just don’t care for most of the supplement bars out there. They tend to be so artificial tasting, tough to chew, and full of artificial sweeteners. This one was really good.
It tasted normal, almost like a candybar. There was a tiny, tiny aftertaste due to the sucralose in it, but it was barely noticeable. This is probably due to the combination of sucralose with sugar alcohols. It does have some sugar and sweetened condensed milk as well, but not a lot. The texture and chew-factor was also great. I give it a thumbs up! This bar would be a great snack, a breakfast kickstart, or a post workout food.
It’s made by Dymatize and provides 15g protein and only 17g of carbohydrate.
I am a huge fan of the Powerbar Harvest Energy, Toffee Chocolate Chip. It is my absolute favorite. However, I could see working in a few of the Dymatize Elite Gourmet bars now and then!
