Review:

Unlike many bars, the Big 100 Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Bar isn’t coated with something. It’s just a log that resembles cookie dough. It’s a little sticky and some of it stuck to the package. The taste is decent-somewhat like cookie dough, but mostly like sugar. The chocolate chips aren’t very chocolatey and are few and far between. And the bar is studded with these weird “air crisp” pieces that seemed out of place and stuck to my teeth. Although the first ingredient is corn syrup, which is never a good sign, they’re still pretty satisfying and fill you up for a few hours. As an added bonus, they’re some of the few protein bars that don’t contain soy protein.

Pros: No soy, big and satisfying

Cons: High in sugar, lopsided carb to protein balance
