Slim-Fast Bar Review

slim-fastI always though of Slim Fast as diet shakes/meal replacements which were less than tasty and not much beyond.  You know—“ a shake for breakfast, another for lunch and a sensible dinner.”  But boy, was I surprised when I discovered Slim Fast Optima –advertised as “Controls Hunger for Up To Four Hours” Caramel Crispy Peanut Bars.  When I tried this bar, I was amazed at the delicious taste which is one that I have long adored—caramel.  The Slim Fast Bar is filled with chocolate, peanuts and yummy caramel and has a wonderful flavor.

But what about the satiation of hunger?  This fact is totally key when it comes to keeping your diet strict.  Well: this bar did fill me up.  Incredibly it is hearty and would even serve well in place of a meal if you are not famished.  Of course the caramel and crispy peanuts make this treat extra special –some even add it to breakfast, morning snack, with lunch, as an afternoon snack, with a sensible dinner as a sweet treat.  It is designed to fill you up and provides the balanced nutrition of one meal.  Slim Fast Optima Caramel Crispy Peanut Bars have 220 calories in each bar and 150 calories come from fat.  One bar has 6 grams of total fat, 3.5 grams of saturated fat, 0 grams of trans fat, less than 5 mgs of cholesterol, 250 mgs of sodium, 400 mgs of potassium, 33 grams of total carbs, 2 grams of dietary fiber, 14 grams of sugar, 13 g of sugar alcohol and 8 grams of protein.  There are not many bars out there that can beat this nutrient panel.  This product tastes great and can help you to diet better with chocolate, peanuts and caramel in it, so I am not sure you could ask for more.
