So have you tried the new Fiber On 90 calorie brownies? I bought the Chocolate Peanut Butter ones yesterday.... they are not too bad! A little dry.... but the flavor is good and it helps get me through my chocolate cravings!

    They are not bad but nothing compared to a real, homemade brownie! lol, but yes it helps!

    I have the peanut butter ones too and ya the only thing that i dont like is that they are kind of dry but for 90 calories they taste really good. i want to try the fudge ones next

    I would agree that they are a little dry. Definitely not as good as a homemade one. But for 90 calories, I can't beat that!

    i like the fiber one brownies as well, but not the dryness. if you're looking for something chocolate that isn't dry, i recommend vitatop deep chocolate muffins or the brownies (both have a lot of fiber, whole wheat, protein, lots of vitamins and are 100 calories each). sorry. i am obsessed with vitatops. but i do like the fiber one. have you tried microwaving them? it makes them seem less dry.

    I paired mine with a glass of milk, and that totally help with the dryness. They're not "real" brownies, but they're definitely a tasty snack.

    I haven't tried them, yet but a friend of mine said that putting them in the microwave for like 15-20 seconds REALLY helped!
  • They're not bad but I like more fiber in my food. I guess I'm becoming picky when I choose items to splurge on. :)
    I found some great high fiber, high protein brownies (taste good, too!) but they are from Nutrisystem and about 2 bucks a brownie. Yikes. I don't eat their food but have ordered side items once in a while just due to the high fiber content.
  • They are ok, but nothing too great. If I want to spend the 90 cals, I would rather have on of the fiber one bars. They are delish to me :))
  • I haven't seen those. I guess I might try to find them when I go grocery shopping again.

    I think they are dry to so to help me get through my sweet/chocolate cravings i have a skinny cow truffle ice cream bar and those are awesome !
  • When I get a chocolate craving I eat a Kemp's pudding pop they are yummy and only have 80 calories. Just another great snack to add to the list!

    I've been eating them for 2 weeks now and I hardly notice the dryness anymore and it definitely curbs my sweet tooth and helps me reach my fiber intake.

    I second the Vitatops though- very good. They used to be special order from an online retailer, but lately I've been able to find them in stores. I know I've bought them at Target before.

    I was actually thinking of sprinkling a little water over mine and tossing it into the microwave for 10 sec to see if that helped

    Do the Vitatops one have refined sugar? I looked at the ingredient list for the Fiber One brownies and dropped them. Lots of sugar and chemicals.

    Am I overreacting?
