CLIF BUILDERS Protein Bars - Chocolate Flavor - 20g Plant Based Protein - Gluten Free - Non-GMO - Low Glycemic - No Artificial Sweeteners - 2.4 oz. (12 Pack)

Best flavor is chocolate.

Not to speak in hyperbole, but these bars have been a godsend. I'm of slight build and very rarely feel the pangs of hunger in my stomach regardless of food intake (or lack thereof), so without noticing it I essentially just slow down due to lack of calories/carbs/etc as the day progresses. Ever since I started including these bars into my diet as a snack at work I never feel tired. I'm also incredibly frugal, but these were easy to justify the price of when the benefits were so obvious. Two 12-pack boxes when it's marked down at a low price means that it's roughly going to be a dollar and some change per workday for a quality snack. Not bad, and slightly cheaper than what you'd pay for a vending machine candy bar.As far as taste/texture, I really enjoy what they put into them. I'm not a foodie by any stretch and find little pleasure in anything I eat, but I look forward to eating these bars. I even eat them when I'm not working/don't need the boost, so that's saying something. They're not overpoweringly sweet and, most importantly for me, they taste great when chilled (not frozen; you'll break your teeth). The texture of the bar is complex, with a typical soft chocolate top layer covering a crunchy core. The best way I can describe the inner core is like an organic cereal purchased by your fancy friends who insist that organic everything is the only way to live (it's not, but whatever). If you understand that, then you have a pretty accurate idea of what you're getting. I guess the gist of it is that it doesn't feel like a corporate manufactured kids food, it feels a little more finely crafted and selective of its ingredients. But it's not so artisanal that you feel like one of those yippy toolboxes that think synth music is worth listening to and use more than 5 words to describe the cup of coffee they're ordering. Give it a rest, your BS complex coffee order is not impressing the sorta-cute-but-far-too-tattooed-to-not-be-difficult-in-a-relationship barista and you're just making the wait in line that much longer for the people behind you.One thing that annoyed me was likely outside of Clif's (Clif Bar's?) hands: crumbly stuff inside the wrapper. Depending on how carelessly Amazon ships them, or what time of year you order them, they can come chock full of tiny flakes of chocolate that get everywhere. I've had batches that were great, and then I've had a few where Amazon allowed them to semi-melt somewhere along the line and it basically snows chocolate all over your clothes/desk as soon as you open the wrapper. Chilling before opening didn't help either, the damage is done if it has a chance to melt. I'm basically insane when it comes to things like this, so if you're the same... I don't know what to say. Deal with it? They're worth the slight mental anguish and clean-up time.I wrote all of this for a glorified candy bar. Sorry that you read all of it?

Perfect replacement for Zone Perfect Double Dark Chocolate bars. I usually eat half and save the other half for later. These bars are really filling and best of all do not mess with my stomach. No whey? THANK YOU. They are a little chewy but overall they get the job done.

They're okay. I don't know if he would like them again though

I recently purchased Builders Protein Bars from Amazon, and I’m impressed. Delivery was fast and right on time, with the packaging securely intact—no damaged items at all. The chocolate flavor is rich and enjoyable, leaving a pleasant aftertaste that I really appreciate. These bars are perfect for a quick, satisfying snack or post-workout boost. The subscription service is a fantastic feature, helping me save money while ensuring I never run out. Overall, I’m very satisfied with the product and the convenience Amazon offers. Highly recommended for anyone looking for a tasty and nutritious protein bar option!

These had a great protein content and tasted pretty good. They are way better than a lot out there that I’ve tried.

I have enjoyed the Builders protein bars, especially since they do not contain ingredients found in other brands that are harmful to our bodies. My only issue is that when exposed to high temperature for a long period of time, the exterior coating on the bars sticks to the wrapper and flakes of chocolate go everywhere when you open the wrapper. I live in Georgia, so I won’t be ordering from any on-line service from April through October because the delivery vans expose the boxes to high temps.

I was searching for these and for some reason Amazon's search didn't have any of these bars show up. I haven't purchased them for maybe 10 years. What showed up in the search were the oat bars. I'd never had them before (they are hideous by the way). I thought maybe Clif had been sold and someone had really screwed up a good thing.So, I threw the oat bars away (money wasted) and did a search for just protein bars and wouldn't you know it, these were the first in the search. I hate Amazon's search engine.So, these are on auto-ship. Love 'em!I have a serious non-life threatening condition. I have days I can barely eat anything. And days I can't eat at all. I've lost over 30 lbs (from mid June to October). I have Atkins protein shakes on auto-ship, too.I feel much better and am able to actually eat food (sometimes more than once a day) and have these as a snack. They have really helped!
