Slim Fast Peanut Butter Crunch Time Snack Bar

It's been a long time since we have done reviews of Slim Fast products here on Iateapie.net, so when I saw the Slim Fast Peanut Butter Crunch Time Snack Bar for 99 cents, I decided to try it. I like Peanut Butter, I like chocolate, and I love crunch! A perfect combination, I thought. Unfortunately, I should have looked at the nutritional information first.

NUTRITION FACTS
Serving Size: 23 grams
Calories: 100
Total Fat: 3.5 grams, 4%
Saturated Fat: 1.5 grams, 8%
Sodium: 70 mg, 3%
Carbohydrates: 16 gram
Fiber: 0%
Sugar: 13 grams
Protein: 1 gram

Each 23 gram, bar provides 100 calories, 3.5 grams of total fat, 1.5 grams of which is saturated fat, no fiber, 1 gram of protein and 13 grams of sugars. The calorie count is okay and the fat count isn't astronomically high, but where is the protein and fiber?! How is this supposed to be any kind of filling snack bar without them?

On the flip side, the Slim Fast Peanut Butter Crunch Time Snack Bar sure tastes good. It was composed of a crunchy, toffee-like interior, with a milk chocolate coating. It was crispy and crunchy and chocolate peanut buttery, but it was small.

It wasn't really filling at all. I wonder why ... maybe no protein or fiber? Sorry, I'm just a little hung up on this . The ingredients list starts with sugar and corn syrup and it also includes partially hydrogenated vegetable oils.

This is a really small bar - 23 gram bars don't really do much for me - and although the taste was okay, I won't be buying this again, not even for $0.99.
