Atkins Morning Start Breakfast Bars - Apple Crisp

Pros: Very fresh and tasty, High protein, High Fiber
Cons: Yikes...Expensive!

In my unending quest to take off a few (read: lots) of pounds I have spent lots of time finding foods that will taste good and quench my hunger, but will still help me to maintain a low carbohydrate diet. I’ve never been very good about eating brea ...

Pros: Tasty, low carb, high protein, nice texture
Cons: Expensive, not filling enough for a meal replacement

Since I am making an effort to control my carbohydrate intake, I'm always on the lookout for low carb snacks. Many of the Atkins bars and candies are quite good, so of course when I spied Atkins Morning Start Apple Crisp Breakfast Bars, I had to t ...

Pros: Tasty, Crispy, Crunchy, Neatly wrapped
Cons: Not filling as an actual meal

For a while I have been eating the Atkins Advantage Bars: Chocolate Peanut Butter flavor. As I expected I got bored with it and had to search for something to replace it with. One day while shopping my wife and I came across the Atkins Morning Start ...

Pros: Good, quick, and saves me the hassle of having to make a sandwich every morning.
Cons: Kind of expensive, and it doesn't hold my hunger over for sometime.

I must be on a roll here-this is my second Atkins review today. The first was about a Pancake Syrup, which was royally bad. Here I will get into my lunch substitute-the Atkins Breakfast Bar. To my knowledge, there are four types of Atkins ...

Pros: Easy, quick, mobile and good.
Cons: Pricey if purchased in the grocery store; a little dry.

I feel as though I'm jumping on an already-crowded bandwagon here, but I feel fairly strongly about this product, and want to share with you. If you've read my other review of Atkins Shakes, you already know that I am endeavoring to lose a few pounds ...

Pros: taste great, convenient, low carb content
Cons: could be considered expensive

I bought these breakfast bars after trying the cinnamon buns ones first. The cinn. ones I thought tasted well compared to the glycerin bar taste that I expected. But, these bars tasted awesome! They were so good, that it makes me want to rerate the ...

Pros: light, airy, not a typical gross protein bar
Cons: price (Walmart is the cheapest!)

Cinnamon bun is gross, but Apple Crisp is good. If you like that hard, thick, typical protein bar taste try the Cinnamon bun. I like the Apple Crisp. They are light, airy, & not like eating the usual nasty protein bar. The bars really are not enough for a meal, although I do have one for breakfast w/ coffee & that's it. I have not been able to try the other "crisp" bars because they are so hard to find in the stores. Walmart is the cheapest place to buy! $5.49 a box.

Pros: Crunchy, good flavor, convenient
Cons: Price

Based upon the other reviews here, I fully expected to like the Apple Crisp flavor of these bars more than the Cinnamon. I think it's going to come down to personal preference on texture and whether you prefer apple over cinnamon. I liked the very full texture of the cinnamon bars in my mouth. They they felt more substantial. By contrast, the apple flavor (as others have noted) is more light and airy. Closer to a coated, apple-flavored rice crispy treat. While I might marginally prefer the taste of these bars over the cinnamon, I definitely prefer the texture of the cinnamon bars. I felt more as if I was eating something that might sustain me through the morning.

So, if you are missing the "crunch" that removing carbs from your diet can result in, this is the bar for you. If you are looking for a slightly more substantial bar, try the cinnamon ones. Regardless, as diet bars go, these are pretty darn good!

Pros: I get a sweet taste and replace the cravings I get for a candy bar.
Cons: I don't like that it is hard to find in stores.

Due to recently finding I have diabetes, I purchased this product because of low sugar content. My expectations weren't very high due to diet products I have tried in the past. However the Atkins Apple Crisp bar was quite tasty and I thought to myself wow this is good as I looked it over wondering what was in it. I keep them in the pantry at home and in my truck just in case I have the urge to give in to temptation wanting something sweet that I shouldn't have. Sugar control is my biggest concern. This product really works for me. Due to this experience. I now plan have to try the other Atkins bars for variety.

Pros: great taste and high in protein
Cons: Price if you don't shop around

I really enjoy the cinnamon taste and it satisfies right after a work out. It is a quick way to up your protein and boost muscle. I have been using this product for two years and recommend it highly. Shop around for the best price for the bars. I have found online stores selling between $5.50 and $11.00 a box. Cheapest I have found was on http://www.evitaminstore.com for $5.75 a box. Shop around they have a great taste!

Pros: Good taste, satisfying.
Cons: Too sweet.

These bars have an excellent taste, and are very heavy, like most protein meal replacements, so I felt satisfied after eating one. However, the flavor was SO sweet, that after a couple of bites, I had to choke the rest down.
It tastes more like a candy than a meal bar, and a very, very sweet one at that.
Aside from the sweetness, the bar was excellent, so if you can handle a little craziness on your tastebuds, go for it.

Pros: Delicious, Apple taste, Doesn't Melt
Cons: Crumbles easily

This was the first Atkins product I ever bought. I loved it! It is a change of pace from the chocolate and peanut butter of most Atkins bars, and it actually tasted like something I would normally eat.

It tastes a lot like the Apple-cinnamon Granola bar, but obviously, has less carbs. Most Atkins bars have a heavy coating of either chocolate or other flavoring on the outside. This bar has an apple-vanilla flavored coating, but the good thing is that the coating doesn't melt easily (Chocolate atkins bars melt at the touch!).

The only issue I had with this bar is that it is very crumbly and messy.
