Atkins Advantage Mocha Crisp Coffee Bars











I found these bars at Walmart in a box of 5 (1.6oz bars) for roughly $6.00 First let me say that I hate coffee, I only purchased these for husband who drinks coffee all day, evening and would have a coffee iv running in his sleep if he could. I don't like the fact that they only have 10 grams of protein to 22 grams of carbs. The packaging claims that each bar only has 3 net carbs but doesn't elaborate on how they get this figure. Maybe it has something to do with the 11 grams of dietary fiber that each bar has?! Each bar is also 180 calories which isn't too bad considering that it is pretty filling. I do like that they have no sugar alcohols however. I felt it was only fair that I ave one to give a realistic review. If you like coffee, then you will like these bars. They taste like coffee all right. They have little coffee flakes in them. They also have chocolate flakes in them that made me able to eat past the first bite. It did leave a distinct aftertaste of, you guessed it, coffee in my mouth however so now I am counting down thirty minutes till I can drink some thing to wash the taste away. Husband loves them.
