SOYJOY - Soy Snack Bars with Dried Fruit — 

I was so excited to try this new bar i heard about called Soy Joy.  I love soy products in general & am always searching for a new healthy bar with real ingredients!  Unfortunately, in my opinion, this bar failed the taste test!  As i mentioned, i love soy & eat/drink products containing soy regularly, but the bar i tried had a very unpleasant aftertaste, almost as if the soy was rancid.  I do admit, however that the bar did have a decent ingredient list & seemed to contain real ingredients like nuts, dates, berries etc, in addition to soy protien. 

My other complaint is about the texture of the bar itself.  I thought from the ingredient list that the bar would be soft, but it was very firm, almost hard, but it was chewy.  The spice flavor overwhelmed the fruitiness, but not that horrible soy taste.

I have found other bars that like MUCH better, that have good ingredients in them as well, such as Cliff Nectar bars, which are wonderful, although i was really hoping for a soy bar for the extra proteins.  This one just didn't live up to my expectations!
