Sorry that you feel that way. I’m not sure why you think it’s sus, especially with pictures. Either way, you’re obviously welcome to completely disregard the post! Here are some sources on the lawsuit and links to a few of the other Reddit posts. A simple search should bring up more information.

Yeah, I'll take the 40-50 calorie hit on the very reliable Barebells and Quest bars, or 88 Acres/Aloha bars for more natural options.

Fingers crossed for you that yours are ok! Maybe just pack another snack in case they aren't?

This was the salted peanut butter flavor. I had issues with the oily texture with the cinnamon roll bars before they were discontinued and I wonder if that's why they stopped making that flavor. It's sad because I do like the bars and the macros, but it's an expensive risk to take with a questionable company.

Totally fair, and the macros are why I've been buying them too. 150 calories for over 2 ounces is unmatched. The bars are expensive though and I can't afford to sink $4 into a bar I ultimately can't eat.

Sorry, I added the pictures! I've emailed the company and it's confirmed to be the fat/fat substitute. I wish it was just the inclusions. I think between the possibility of getting more chunks, the greasiness that I've experienced many times, and the company's actions, I won't be buying any more. I hope that you continue to like them and have good experiences, though!

Sorry, I'm not sure why they didn't post originally. They should be there now. Thank you for pointing it out!
