Rise Breakfast Whey Protein Bars Almond Honey, 18g Protein, 2.01 oz (12 Pack)

I’ve tried all the protein bars you can think of. You have to make a sacrifice somewhere: cost, macros, taste, ingredients, texture. As someone not interested in consuming artificial ingredients or sweeteners, this is the best option I’ve come across that doesn’t cost an arm and a leg. Yes, it is slightly oily. But, the taste makes up for it. Just 5 simple ingredients in the Honey Cinnamon. I think I found my new go-to protein bar. Well done Rise.

I have ordered a box of Rise bars from Amazon 104 times so far. Needless to say, I love them a lot. I like the three ingredient simplicity, and the taste and texture.There was a short period of time where the bars were harder to chew, but in my experience that has been rectified.Almonds, honey, and pea protein.Healthy and yummy too!

Addictive, taste great, high protein. They can't taste this good and not have a far amount of sugar. I try to the avoid them because I'll eat them up - they're that good. There's less guilt with eating these because their jammed packed with protein and simple, healthy ingredients, and the sugar is from honey.

Less quality ingredients disguised with a new wrapper, please consider this review and photos:You get lesser quality ingredients! The “new bars” have less protein, more salt, more sugar, and a higher fat %/DV as add ins, so disappointed RISE has shifted into the propaganda/content shift of processed foods with more addictive ingredients. The bar tasted just fine as it was.Very disappointed with the swap of ingredient content here! When advertising “new look…” companies will change quantities and ingredients, so please look out for you; they will not. While the calories overall remain the same 280, they are now putting in less protein and more sugar/sodium. Vegan protein bars offer 15-18g at this high of calories and a quality animal protein bar should be offering 20-25g at this calorie count. Sugar and sodium are addicting and inexpensive for companies compared to protein. The RISE bars now have more preservative products that are cheaper than protein and yet the bars remain the same if not higher in costs to us, the consumers. These bars do not cost any less with the “new look” however, the manufacture is surely saving money.You now get 2g less protein (20g Vs 18g) and MORE of what we do not need in our diets…sodium is now 40mg Vs 20 (DOUBLE!!) more added sugar, 15g Vs 13g and the fat percentage increased, from 21% DV to 25%. This is a protein bar I have enjoyed for years and now, at the same or higher price you are getting less of the ingredient driving us to PROTEIN bars.

After having researched many protein bars for several reasons. One big reason: I despise any sort of artificial sweetener (including Stevia, monk fruit, etc.). They placed highly on various lists of "best rated protein bars". The simplicity of the ingredients (only 3!) was also a definite plus. The protein content is high and they taste good as long as they're chilled. This is a personal preference, though, and may not be necessary for other buyers, and I still carry one in my purse.My only issue is that the surface of the bars is quite oily - in fact, I stained a pair of pants after having set what I thought was a closed one on my leg.[Another plus: my 1-year-old grandson loves them (he's ok to eat honey as he passed the 12-month mark). I feel very good feeding him such a "clean" food.]

While these are great bars with a fantastic flavor and no disgusting artificial sweeteners; i must dock a star because the texture and quality varies wildly between shipments. Sometimes these bars are soft and delicious, others they are very dry and hard. I understand that's part of the deal as mentioned on the label.

These protein bars are filling, healthy and not overly sweet. One bar truly fills one up and get you through the afternoon when you do not have time for lunch. I keep one in my bag when I may not be able to enjoy lunch. Add a cup of coffee or tea and you are set for several hours of satiation ! Thank you Rise.

Love the short ingredient list but they're WAY too sweet. Why does it need 18g of sugar from honey? Cut it in half and it'll have the same effect and be twice as good
