David, Protein Bar, Sample Pack, Variety Pack, Pack of 4 Protein Bars | 28g of Protein | 150 Calories | 0g of Sugar - High Protein, Low Carb, Gluten Free Protein Bar

I ordered this sample pack, and I've eaten the blueberry pie bar. It's simply the most satisfying and nutritious protein bar I've had, and I've tried at least 20 different bars. The flavor and texture are closest to the RXBar, only slightly better and less sticky. Then you've got the macros-28G protein and 14 grams carbs-and it includes allulose, which has been shown to have beneficial health effects. The most impressive thing about this bar is how satisfying it is--I didn't have the slightest urge to eat anything else for 5 or 6 hours-on 150 calories! In fairness, it's not the best tasting bar I've had, which is the Power Crunch Peanut Butter or Chocolate mint. But the David Bar, for about half the calories, is immensely more satisfying, has healthier ingredients, and tastes pretty decent. I'm switching over to these, even though they cost nearly twice as much per bar (although about the same per gram of protein). And I get hungry within a couple of hours after I eat the Power Crunch bars--they're really more of a protein-rich cookies. Flavor is important, but it's only part of the overall experience. I'm extremely happy with the David bars-and I paid for them.

First of all, these are some of the worst protein bars I’ve ever had. I’d rather chew on drywall — at least that has some texture. Second, $24 for 4 bars? That’s $6 per bar, and the only thing getting stronger is my regret. David, my man… for that price I thought each bar came with a free personal trainer, a Spotify playlist, and maybe a therapist to help me work through the financial trauma. So many better options out there. Save your money, save your taste buds.

I ordered a starter package of the David bars based on a write-up in teh New York times. I am a loyal to Quest, and will continue to be. Here's why: 1. The David bars lack fiber. The Blueberry Pie bar contains <1 g. of Fiber. Quest Cookies & Cream contains 13 g. This is the top differentiator. I imagine fiber varies depending on the bar. 2. David bars taste ok. I'm sure that I could convert over if Quest disappeared overnight, and overtime I would adjust. 3. David bars are premium-priced, although just slightly. So, I don't hate them. I just prefer Quest. Plust Quest's additional products (crackers, muffins) are great. I had bariatric surgery 2 1/2 years ago and my Quest regimen, in addition to my regular diet and a lot of hot yoga, keeps my weight and muscle tone right where it needs to be...steady. And a final note: The backers of David bought a factory that produces a certain type of ingredients (I believe it's a type of oil) for protein products and locked other makers out of using this product. I don't appreciate businesses pulling that. If you created the product, that's one thing. Buying in and canceling other client contracts, or not allowing renewals, is non-competitive, and frankly, it doesn't make your bars better.

Been seeing these on Instagram and wanted to try without buying a whole box so this was the perfect option! The sample bars are full sized bars so the value for the money is great. All 4 flavors are good, but my favorite/recommended would be the cookie dough and the cake batter (which is ironic because I don’t normally like birthday cake/cake batter flavored protein). You can eat them right out of the packaging, or it is recommended to microwave the bar (AFTER taking it out of the packaging) for 7-8 seconds. I took a bite before microwaving so I could try it both ways and it definitely makes the texture more enjoyable after heating it up. They’re not overly sweet, or rich in flavor, but they are good and very satisfying protein bar.

Because of physical and digestive issues, I rely on protein bars to get enough protein. I eat at least two of them a day. My top choice in Kirkland, because I like their taste and texture, and they are reasonably priced - in fact, a bargain. However, I recently started to research other options and came across David bars as being well regarded. I bought the sample pack, even though I had no intention of eating the blueberry. I found them to be tasty, with no bad aftertaste. Their size and caloric content is excellent, and with 28 grams of protein, they are what I need. The texture is okay, but I wasn’t expecting rice crispy things in them, so that was not preferred. However it was the price that will prevent a repurchase. At about $4.00 per bar, they are too expensive. And they should be offered in options other than a controlled sample pack of 4 or 12 bars for $40. One should be able to buy what they want.
