What reviewers say

Distilled from the video reviewers — the score, what they praise, where they push back.?

RXBAR Protein Bar
across 3 reviews
3.0/5
divided
Reviewers praise
  • Short ingredient list with recognizable whole foods: egg whites, nuts, dates, chocolate
  • Egg whites add protein without detectable egg flavor
  • Decent size and portable for on-the-go snacking
Reviewers push back
  • Very chewy texture that sticks to teeth and requires effort to clear
  • High sugar content from dates—17 grams per bar
  • Only 12 grams of protein, lower than many protein bars
Whole-food ingredient list appeals to some, but extremely chewy texture and dates-driven sweetness divide reviewers sharply.
— best for: People who prioritize whole-food ingredients over high protein content and do not mind a very chewy, sticky texture.

i live on rxbars bc i generally like their simple ingredients and balanced, non-extreme macros. this is my go-to flavor, it is soooooo good. the chocolate tastes really high quality, and it's not too sweet -- the bitterness with the sticky sweet date base creates the perfect contrast, and the sea salt makes the flavor pop perfectly! please never change this product!!! the other bars could use more lm505 · kelloggs.com
