Pros:
|
It's chocolate!
|
|
Cons:
|
the price and Malitol issues
|
|
I thought there was an undertaste of chemicals to the dark chocolate version. It's a little waxy and very small for the price. If you have raging PMS and need a fix and there isn't a Pure Delight or SF Reeses PB Cup around, this will work.
Malitol Danger- Too much of this product will cramp you up beyond belief and keep you in the bathroom for hours.

Caramel nut chew is the only bar that is somewhat edible. Peanut butter cups are alright, but nowhere near as good as Reese's or even Russell Stover versions.
The plain chocolate bars are uninspired and leave a nasty waxy aftertaste.

Love the taste- Perfect for a chocolate fix!

Waxy feeling

I keep them on hand for a "quick fix". Makes me feel undeprived. I usually only eat like 2 squares after a meal. I have always liked chocolate after a meal!

I think they're great. I love the Caramel one and the Peanut Butter one. Maybe they taste better in Canada. :o) NOTHING beats ROSS Chocolate Bars though - they're Canadian and AWESOME!!!

The caramel nut chews are so close to a snickers bar that I have to limit myself! I just love them- and I usually don't like this kind of stuff. Low-carb candies have some a long way. Low carb versions of everything have some a long way! To those who still just don't like the idea of an Atkins candy bar, wait a few more months. Technology keeps advancing and by the end of this year I wouldn't be surprised if Snickers didn't realease its own low-carb candy bar... but in the mean time- try the caramel nut chew! It's great!

I have had the chocolate crunch bars, and they are pretty good. They hit the spot when you need something sweet...I usually just open one and have a square or two whenever I am craving chocolate. They are kind of hard and have a bit of an "undertaste", though not too bad.

Sometimes you can find them on sale. Documented low-carbiness. 3 cups is one serving!

ee-yucky.

I tried the peanut butter cups several times (I guess I'm a slow learner). The first time I tried them, I thought there must be something wrong with them. Surely that horrid flavor came from sitting on the shelf too long! Then I tried them a second time. Ugh. Nope, that's the way they're supposed to be.
I think the main problem with these is the chocolate. It's waxy and oily. I know one of the reasons I really liked Reese Cups was that there was that sweet, creamy, melty chocolate around the slightly salty peanut butter filling. Sweet+salt=yummy.
The peanut butter actually does taste a teeny bit salty and if you try real hard you can almost fool yourself about that part. But the chocolate is not in any way sweet or creamy. My beautiful illusion pops like a soap bubble. Ugh. I think I'll stick to the SF real deal from now on.
Also, they tend to melt in-package at room temperature.

Peanut butter cups are absolutely delicious! Craving chocolate and sweets, these have become my saviour. Even though they are small, the chocolate is rich enough that I often eat only one cup and find my fix, fixed.

If this is the only LC candy you can find, I suppose it is at least edible. I have tried the peanut butter cups and the chocolate carmel. They're not NEARLY as good as other LC brands like the Russell Stover lo-carb brand or the Pur-Delite candies, which are THE BEST. The Atkins candy is MORE EXPENSIVE, even though it has a dry texture and funny aftertaste. ALL of the LC candies I have tried have the Malitol, though, and that's no good if you over"endulge."

I thought the peanut butter cups were good especially since I haven't had reeses cups in so long. I did think they were a little small.

I really like the Caramel Nut Chew- it has the right consistency. The peanut butter cups are okay, but not nearly as good as the Sugar Free Reeses.

I thought these were great. The Caramel-nut blew me away. Liked the mint as well. Not so much the PB cups. I enjoy the Caramel nut chew now and then as a treat.

I am spoiled by Russell Stovers version of the peanut butter cups, so these went in the trash. NOT sweet at all, and did nothing to help me with the chocolate scream I was having.

I had the carmel nut chew bar and it was very very good. Tasted just like a snickers bar. I have not tried the other flavors because the carmel nut is the only one available to me. The only thing against it is like all other atkins products it is a little on the pricey side. Paid almost a dollar for a miniature sized bar. But I am still planning on purchasing more.
