REDCON1 MRE Protein Bar, Peanut Butter Jelly - Contains MCT Oil + 20g of Whole Food Protein - Easily Digestible, Macro Balanced Low Sugar Meal Replacement Bar (12 Bars)

German Chocolate Cake flavor: ExcellentIngredients: The bars are more meat-based, which is what I want to get away from all the whey and soy found in similar products. There's still some undesirable ingredients for me like soy protein, soybean oil, sucralose, and titanium dioxide, but not as main ingredients. Beef, salmon, sweet potatoes, and blueberries are higher up on the list. It's a really good blend of ingredients, and it still somehow tastes like really good chocolate cake.Description: Easy to chew solid bars that are lightweight on the stomach. I ate two with a sandwich and chips, and didn't feel any bloating or inflammation or whatever. My stomach isn't considered sensitive though, so results may vary depending on your gut biome, but this should be softer on the stomach compared to some other brands' products.Price: $30 for 12 comes to $2.50 each, which is not bad at all considering the size and ingredients.

I eat protein bars all the time and have tried nearly every brand. These appealed to me bc they have real food ingredients. They are pretty tasty and I usually don’t like dbl chocolate flavored bars. They sort of remind me of the og combat bars but even better. I a, cirrostratus to see if the other flavors are as good

Redcon1 MRE bars are a great bar and taste pretty good. The Caramel Trail Mix flavor has good texture especially with the pretzel pieces within the bar. Only complaint I have come across with MRE bars in general is that they can be messy in the sense that the coating tends to go all over the place. Other than, solid protein bar for a good price.

When I have a small lunch, I like to have one of these. Keeps me full, good source of protein. Love the whole food ingredients and they taste great. my wife likes them too. best tasting protein bar by far, and reasonably priced too.

I keep these in my bag in case I don’t get a breakfast or lunch. But I’m not gonna buy them at regular price.

We could only taste the chocolate and even that tasted stale. They came yesterday and we picked them up yesterday from our mail locker (so same day); the expiration date is June of 2024 so there's supposed to be three more months of freshness left - NOPE! These are not cheap either. This item does not have an option for returns - understood because it's food but we won't ever buy these or any other of these bars from Amazon again. What a waste of money and food!!This is such a shame because they were bought for us through Amazon in the past and they were fresh and in excellent shape and tasted amazing the first time but these are unfortunately not palatable at all.

[Review for the Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough option]For my first test, I was starving by 9am, not having eaten breakfast yet. Took my first MRE bar. Haven't starved til 1pm. Albeit, I also had a bunch of other stuff: a corn, a banana, and a lil trail mix.Pros:- Looks like chocolate, tastes like chocolate, feels like a sturdy protein bar.- Nicely packed compact as advertised.Cons:- For an MRE, a 2022 expire date (bought 2021) sounds... pathetic. Gotta last +10yrs in case of apocalypse. That's what MREs are supposed to be for.- My img show package arrived with open sticker. Could be just due to age, or could be due to tampering...- (don't eat while reading this) I feel a slight potty tummy feeling down there 2-3hr after eating this. Could be a coincidence, or could very well be the bar itself. I can't quite ascertain. Will try a second time as a lunch replacement to see. The point of this is cuz I plan to do a long hike, and I can't have my travel food causing me to need to use the restroom frequently.- Also, not sure if it's cuz the bar is dry or just the moderately warm and dry weather, but I felt quite thirsty after eating this. Can't also be depleting my water stash during my long hike!Gripe: I noticed a disclaimer say this bar is NOT for weight reduction. I'm all like: ...we have a weight problem in this country (still)!2nd day update: Tried again, this time as my lunch replacement. Did not get the potty anal feeling! So I'd say the food hasn't gone bad. Did not make me rush to the toilet. But still too dry. Ima just have to pack a plethora of water for my Half Dome hike~ Oh, I did get hungry after ~3hr. So I'd say 1 bar doesn't quite qualify as a "meal replacement". More like a 2/3 meal replacement. In other words, you'd have to pack maybe 5-7 bars to last a Half Dome hike and/or pack more extra food, too.

Don't have time for a meal but you're hungry? These work great and they taste awesome. They taste like what they say they are. I like to keep a box on standby for whenever I'm having a busy day

This bar is top bar for athletes looking for good macros. Great flavour great nutrition

I have ate dozens of these but did not care the taste of cookie dough, it is ok. German chocolate is my fave.

Likes: Ingredients and macro ratiosDislikes: Flavor. Not to say it’s objectively bad, just prefer the German Chocolate cake over these

Love this flavour

Hands down love these bars buy them monthly but first time trying Caramel trail mix flavour and it tastes too tinny and chemical like for me
