Question for those ordering off nashua: bar flavours?

What bars have you tried and which ones do you like or do you find tastes like a treat or a chocolate bar the most? I want to order some but just not sure which ones to order..cause i want them to taste good.

I just ordered the variety pack (not the cripsy ones) from Heathy Smart through Nashua -- thought that would be a good way to try a variety of bars. The website states that you may not get all of the choices -- but it's better than being stuck with a bunch of bars that you may not like. Just a thought.

I have both the Peanut Butter and the Caramel Crisp. They both taste like candy bars. The Peanut Butter is the closest to a Reece cup that I've ever had in a high protein bar.

Can we eat those on Phase 1? I'm just starting tomorrow with alternative products. I need all the help I can get.

I use the peanut butter and really like it; the carmel with white choc on the outside is really good. Has not been an issue on phase one, but it counts as your one restricted for the day.

I can vouch for the "Peanut Butter" and "Caramel Nut" Healthsmart bars.
PB has 12 g carbs, 15 g protein
CN has 12 g carbs, 12 g protein

When you order over $29 at Nashua Nutrition, you get 3 samples of their products. I just got a sample "Chocolate-Covered Peanut" bar, which was really delicious, but it has 20 g carbs, 14 g protein (I ate it as my 'packet' with my lunch salad just before my workout. I won't have it again until part of maintenance as the carbs are too high. But it was yummy)

When I get those sample, and check on the Nashua website BEFORE eating it.... if it is a bar high in carbs like that, I cut it up into small pieces and put in freezer. Then if once in a while I need a 'bit of chocolate' or sweetness, I just steal ONE piece... just an idea
