    Finally. A protein bar that doesn't call for protein powder! These sound delicious, & can't wait to make them! ;) - 10/1/13

    Taste is fabulous. They were a little too dry and fell apart easily. I ran out of honey so I used Karo syrup and could not make 64 bars out of it. Wasn't able to find Oat bran so I used a little more wheat germ and oatmeal. Took this to work and it's a bit hit. very tasty - 10/23/12

    4 stars only because I wish it had protein powder in it instead of flaxseed ( this recipe calls for A LOT of flaxseed). I will just simply replace flaxseed with peanut butter flavored protein powder. - 4/30/16
