These bars are a convenient and delicious way to replenish energy and protein during long runs or other endurance activities.Key Features:* Easy to Consume: The bars are individually wrapped and have a soft texture that makes them easy to eat on the go.* Good Size Packet: The bars are substantial enough to provide a satisfying boost of energy without being overly filling.* Taste Good: I enjoyed the flavor profile, which was balanced and not overly sweet.My Experience:I found that a single bar was a bit too large to consume in one go during the race, but I was able to break it up and eat it at intervals. The bars provided a steady stream of energy, and I believe they contributed to my improved performance. I knocked over an hour off my previous best time, and I attribute this in part to the effective fueling provided by Chia Charge bars.Overall:I highly recommend Chia Charge Energy and Protein Bars to anyone looking for a reliable and tasty source of fuel for endurance activities. They are easy to use, effective, and delicious.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great way to try the range

I really like that these bars are made from real foods and contain recognizable ingredients. The protein bars have a great crunch and just a small amount of added fibre (it's a pet hate of mine seeing loads of bizarre fibre-boosting additives to protein bars). I feel a lot clearer what it is I'm eating with these, the taste is good and the texture is a really nice change from all the chewy/gooey bars on the market. I'd love to see these also produced in half size like the flapjacks.The mini flapjacks are a great change from energy gels and the small size is particularly convenient. A couple of minor issues I noticed were chia seeds getting stuck in your teeth and one bar crumbling on a hot day in my pocket. That is me being picky though (I'm not sure any bar would survive that pocket!) and I would still buy them again as I enjoyed the taste and prefer fuelling with real food. Overall this pack is a great way to try the range and work out which sizes/products fit best for your needs!

These quick and convenient. Pre training energy or any time of day. I love having the flapjacks with a cup of coffee pre training or the protein bars as a pick me up post training. They sit very well in my stomach much better than heavily processed protein bars. Overall, these bars are the healthiest snack due to their good quality ingredients and minimal processing.

This is my second box of mixed Chia Charge Bars. It's easy to eat them when you aren't doing any exercise, they are so delicious. The smaller bars are the perfect pre-run size with a tea/coffee before an early morning run. Also, to take with you and have mid-run for a boost of energy. Lots of flavour options and meeting a variety of exercise needs. I've not suffered any GI issues which is a huge bonus! I prefer real food instead of gels, so these are perfect for me AND they are made in my home county of Yorkshire, what's not to like.

Awful taste

5.0 out of 5 stars Taste great, vegan and excellent for on the bike energy!

These bars taste great firstly. They are a good size. The ‘big ones’ are almost too big for one go! Great to stick in your jersey pocket or back pack for a snack boost while out on the bike. Also easy on a sensitive stomach. And good value!

I have hiked in many extreme places and eaten many different types of protein bars and in my experience the Chia bars are not only the most effective, delivering the burst of power when it was most needed, but they are tasty too, unlike most other protein bars. I ate the chia bars when I was recently hiking at high altitude in Bhutan and they really enabled me to keep up the rest of the much young team.

Supi!

Schmecken total gut und machen sogar etwas satt. Wenn ich in der Schule bin und mal keinen shake dabei habe dann nehme ich einen Riegel immer mit! Schade, dass 6 davon nur kleine Riegel sind.

Leckere Riegel

Die Riegel bestehen größtenteils aus guten Zutaten und schmecken lecker. Leider war meine Sendung nicht komplett. Auf Nachfragen habe ich dann aber den Rest auch bekommen.
