The Balance Carb Well Chocolate Peanut Butter bars are fairly good tasting, with 200 Calories and only 2g net carbs. This is important to me since I am a type 2 diabetic and have to watch my carb intake. These bars do not impact my blood sugar levels very much.
The taste is more Peanut Butter than Chocolate, but it is still better than a lot of diet products out there. The bar is also fairly filling, so one is nice snack between meals and helps reduce the urge to "graze" on worse things.
It should be noted that these use Maltitol for sweetness and some people experience "gastric distress" when it is taken in large amounts. I would take care if you don't know how it will effect you!

I have been using balance bars for years. For protein and energy. They are definitely one of the better, if not the best tasting bars i have had...

We LOVE these, but can't find them anywhere. I thought now that the lo-carb craze was kind of over they had stopped making them, so I was very surprised to be able to find them online.

yummy. some of the best tasting protein bars available. great for low-carb dieters or diabetics if you believe in the theory that "net carbs" (carbs minus fiber, etc.) should be counted instead of just "carbs". no artificial sweeteners like sucralose, etc., which is good if you think those things may cause cancer...the low "net carbs" are due to a high amount of "sugar alcohols". these bars are best found for less than $1 per bar or $15 per 15 bar case.
ABOUT SUGAR ALCOHOLS
Sugar alcohols are usually incompletely absorbed into the blood stream from the small intestines which generally results in a smaller change in blood glucose than regular sugar (sucrose). This makes them popular sweeteners among diabetics and low-carb dieters. As with many other incompletely digestible substances (dietary fiber), overconsumption can lead to bloating, diarrhea and flatulence because they are not absorbed in the small intestine. Doesn't happen to me... Good luck.
