Raw Rev Vegan Protein Bars- Peanut Butter Dark Chocolate & Sea Salt, 12 bars, Non-GMO, Plastic-Neutral, Nothing Artificial, Glo Formula, Gluten-Free, Keto-Friendly, Paleo, Kosher, No Sugar Alcohols, No Stevia

Fresh out of the warm amazon package these are amazingly mmm! Yum! Melty Chewy Chocolatey Goodness was my first thought.The ingredients now include: Cashews, isomalto-oligosaccharides (prebiotic from tapioca) protein blend (pea protein isolate, brown rice protein, flax protein, organic hemp protein), organic dark chocolate chips (organic cane sugar, organic chocolate liquor, organic cocoa butter, organic soy lecithin, organic vanilla extract), organic alkalized cocoa powder, organic and natural flavors, organic unrefined extra virgin coconut oil, vegetable glycerin, sunflower lecithin, sea salt and monk fruit extract.So these are no longer sweetened with stevia and there is a little cane sugar in the chocolate chips, but minimal - so 3g total sugars per bar! But I think they taste amazing with the monk fruit extract.Total fat is 9g, 0mg cholesterol, 160mg sodium, 10g protein, 250mg potassium, 20mg calcium, 3.8mg iron, Total carbohydrates 21g.These are also gluten free but are made on shared equipment that processes peanuts, tree nuts, eggs, milk, sesame, fish and shellfish. This is not a raw food actually even though that is in the name. It tastes deliciously raw however and is very natural. The ingredients are heated for food safety.I'll be eating one of these every day! Hey, you only live once!~The Rebecca Review

I LOVE these bars. My favorite sports bar. Taste like they just came out of the oven, and one keeps me going for a whole tennis game. I often avoid sports bars bc they seldom taste good and don’t fill me up. But these are yummy, low cal, filling and high energy.

Let me start with the comment that I've never written a review on Amazon (and we get at least 2 packages every day, year round). I discovered the Raw Rev bars back in Mar 2017 at Expo West and never turned back. I see (and taste) a lot of bars in my industry and the flavor, texture, ingredient profile, high fiber and protein content, and low sugar BLEW ME AWAY. Vegan, plant-based, 'clean' ingredients, super filling and satiating. I religiously purchased 12 packs of these bars on Amazon over 135 times (!!) from 2017 to late 2022. I was obsessed (O B S E S S E D) with them and turned countless friends, colleagues, and family members on to the Raw Rev franchise of bars.In December 2022, I received an evident rebrand of the Creamy Peanut Butter & Sea Salt as clear by their "poppier" bright new design, look and feel. Besides an external packaging refresh, the formulation, ingredients a nutritional breakdown of these bars went through a massive change. I took one bite and literally couldn't finish the remainder of the bar. Plainly put: truly horrible, unappetizing and not edible. More importantly, there was the addition of chicory root fiber, vegetable glycerin, sunflower lecithin, and sugarcane Reb M. In lieu, they removed organic coconut oil, organic hemp protein, organic chia seeds, organic flax seeds. Calories increased from 180 previous to new 190, fat increased from previous 11g to new 13g, fiber decreased from previous 14g to new 10g, sugars remained constant at 2g (but from sugarcane Reb M now) and most noticeably protein decreased from previous 15g to new 12g. All around, terrible negative transition on the nutritionals, removal of "clean"/healthier ingredients, addition of undesirable ingredients (but clearly driven by a COGs savings). Most importantly, the new mouth feel and aftertaste is awful and it tastes like plastic. So much so, that I have not purchased a single box for over 1 year after loyally being a DAILY consumer of at least 1 bar per day. So beyond disappointed and saddened by this reformulation move by Raw RevNew Ingredients: PEANUTS, CHICORY ROOT FIBER, SOLUBLE TAPIOCA FIBER, BROWN RICE PROTEIN, PEA PROTEIN ISOLATE, FLAX PROTEIN POWDER, VEGETABLE GLYCERIN, SUNFLOWER LECITHIN, SEA SALT, ROASTED PEANUT EXTRACT, MIXED TOCOPHEROLS, SUGARCANE REB M.Sadly, I will never purchase or eat the Raw Rev bars again, with their new formula as it stands. PLEASE REVERT to your original healthier and tastier ingredients.

I purchased this protein bar because I like to get different kinds of protein for different amino acid profiles. I have tried many protein bars and most vegan bars are not great, but this one actually tastes good. I've eaten a lot of different kinds of these bars and while most are palatable I don't think I've come across one that I've really enjoyed. This one is actually pretty darn good. Not the best protein bar I've ever had, but 100% the best vegan bar I have had.I've never tried these before so I can't comment on how they used to taste vs how they taste now. Maybe they were better before, but they're still pretty good now.Also I noticed a lot of comments complaining about mold on the bars. While my bars were free of any "mold" I'm almost certain that they're referring to chocolate bloom which isn't mold and does not effect the taste or safety in eating it only the appearance.Overall 10/10 vegan bar. It's really good.
