Has anyone tried them before? I was thinking about trying them because I love brownies. I know there are people here that are probably going to tell me to stay away from them because of the ingredients, but seriously? I crave something chocolatey and sweet from time to time and to get something that still not considered healthy for you every once in awhile won't make me fat....at least I hope not. lol

But has anyone tried them? They have a caramel one, too.

    My friend's husband ate a bunch not realizing they were fiber brownies and had to run out of the shower (that'll teach him to read the box!) But he said they were really good. I'm guessing that eating one and not like 3 will be a better move :)

    I'd rather eat a real brownie and not fart my brains out for the rest of the day.

    Not too bad... Not to good... If you really crave some chocolate I guess its ok especially with a nice little boost of fiber. Better sources out there for both though.

    Well, if you already get the recommended amount then that's understandable. But it's more for those who don't like me. I've recently been reaching a good amount.

    idk, for me its honestly a toss up between the higher cal natural ingredients (closer to natural anyway) and the super fake diet stuff

    They are small, unfulfilling, and not THAT great. At all. Plus they usually only have like 5 grams of fiber in them. :(

    I used to eat them EVERY day. EVERY day!

    Until i found quest bars. ;)

    I bought the Peanut Butter Ones before reading the ingredients...overall, they aren't terrible. They will do when you are craving something slightly sweet. Not awesome by any stretch. Maybe if you warmed them up they might be better...

    I had some before. I didn't really like them. I rather have a Fiber one granola bar with dark choclate.

    I think they're dry and not nearly as chocolatey as I'd like. :(

    DON'T DO IT. I bought a huge box from Sam's Club and had eight of them in one day......

    Also, i think they have Shellac in them.

    "Shellac is a resin secreted by the female lac bug, on trees in the forests of India and Thailand. It is processed and sold as dry flakes (pictured at right), which are dissolved in ethyl alcohol to make liquid shellac, which is used as a brush-on colorant, food glaze and wood finish."

    I've tried them and I liked them. Theyre good for when you are craving chocolate.

    I eat them when I want a bit of chocolate and am having gastro issues. For me, that's frequent and these little buddies will help you out. Overall they're not terrible, but there has to be a better way, LOL!
