Atkins Advantage Caramel Chocolate Nut Roll Bar

For the Atkins Advantage Caramel Chocolate Nut Roll Bars, the website says, "Want sweet satisfaction with not one bit of remorse? Then this is the bar for you. Loaded with caramel, peanuts and a chocolaty coating for a satisfying candy bar taste." That description left me too anxious to try this flavor, and I actually ripped into it on the way home from the store, where I purchased a few bars for $1.49 each.

The first thing I noticed was that these are much bigger than the Atkins Endulge Caramel Nut Chew Bars. That said, they taste quite similar. They're a little less chewy (not a bad thing at all), and they're a little easier to break apart. There also seems to be more nuts, so they're crunchier for sure. They taste deliciously rich, and one definitely kept me satisfied for a while - both my appetite and my sweet craving!

The fat count is high, as we have noticed from our reviews of Atkins Bars. The Chocolite Protein Bars and Doctors CarbRite Diet Bars are sugar free, have more protein and less fat, so I would probably go for a delicious flavor of those bars instead of this - I just don't want a lot of fat coming from a snack bar - although the Atkins Advantage Caramel Chocolate Nut Roll Bar was quite tasty, and the calorie count wasn't too bad for a bar of that size.
