Is anyone else having a problem getting the WW chocolate peanut butter 2 pt bars? I knew as soon as our leader told us about them and warned us that they are "too good" to keep around the house that we'd never see them again at our center. It's now been three weeks and not a one in sight!
Why does WW make it such a challenge?
Is there any other way to get them besides going to a WW center?

I saw them at my meeting site for the first time, yesterday. I had a box in my hand- read the nutrition label and put it right back. Took the 2 point Chocolate Chewy Bars(they had all along) instead. The new Chocolate Peanut Butter Bars only have 4% calcium- and therefore cannot count as a milk requiremnt. I don't appreciate that. I want more for my money and points. The other ones have 25% calcium - the amount required to count for a milk product. Now, that's more like it!

The bar you're talking about is a "snack" bar, not a nutrition bar. And yes, it is GOOD!!! Our center was out of them also, there was a backorder, but we just got them in. Your centers should be getting them in soon, too!
Enjoy!

HospitalWriter, I haven't seen them in my WW center since they sold out a month ago...and yes they are very good!

However, I agree with Garfield, that after reading the nutrition label, I will stick with the original chewy chocolate bars--I want that dairy serving!

Laurdee, I don't dare keep the peanut butter and choclate bars in my house--they are dangerous!

Ohh these sound so good!! I love chocolate and peanut butter together (can we say REESES!). I will have to look for them at my WW center on Wednesday. Thanks for the heads up

Hey Tara...you may be a tad disappointed in those peanut butter and chocolate bars. Even though the weight of them are the same as the chewy chocolate nutrition bars, the candy bar seems smaller. At least to me. BUT they are very good!

I have a box of the new Fudgy Peanut & Chocolate bars in front of me.

The box describes it as a "nutritional snack bar" - the new Chocolate Crisp bar is strictly a "snack bar".

Also, the nutritional info on the box says each bar contains 15% daily value of calcium, not 4%. Most of the other daily values are 25% for the rest of the vitamins & minerals contained in the bar.

I wonder why the nutrition info is different....

I disliked the old bars - I think the two new bars are great, especially the fudgy peanut/chocolate flavor. They are sold out here in southern Wisconsin, too!!

I have to say that I really don't like this flavor at all. I purchased a box last week and had one and half and decided that they were not a repeat winner.

I would rather expend another point and eat a luna bar, which are cheaper,nutritious, flavorful and bulkier.

Just my 2 pts worth.
