EASE
IN ACQUISITION—7
Far
less common than the iconic bars themselves, but still sold most everywhere
PowerBar products are sold.
APPEARANCE/PRESENTATION—7
Don’t
have a lot to say here—looks just like every other PowerBar product. Does it work, if we’re evaluating it as
a workout supplement? Yes. Is it anything really worthy of note? Not particularly.
TASTE—8
I
was a little apprehensive going into this—when I think of gummy things of this
sort, I think of the overly sweet, fake-tasting worms and what not that I would
get my son at WinCo, which have long since ceased to appeal to my adult
palate. I am, then, somewhat
surprised to report that they’re not half bad. They do have some issues—I was kind of bothered by the
texture of the opaque half, and as I was getting towards the end of the bag I
did start to feel as though I would soon have enough—but the banana exterior
and strawberry interior (which you really have to chew your way towards if
you’re hoping to taste it) are pleasant enough that I wouldn’t really have a
problem eating them again.
KICK
(INTENSITY)—1
Problem
is, in terms of energy (at least so far as I define it), these basically
deliver nothing. I’m sure if I had
tried these before going to the gym or engaging in some sort of other vigorous
activity, I might have noticed reduced muscle fatigue, etc (the 2:1
glucose/fructose ratio is supposed to be excellent for energy delivery to
muscle tissue). from the other ingredients, but if you’re looking for a workout
supplement/caffeine buzz, you’re fairly well out of luck.
KICK
(DURATION)—1
Nothing
to say here.
THE PRODUCT OVERALL—3.33
These
probably work just fine in their appointed niche, but I’m reviewing these as a
caffeine junkie, and as such I found these lacking. If you’ve found otherwise, by all means let me know.
