Meal replacement bars

[Andrew_P]

First reaction was they are fine but I would say looking at the Tesco part that the Saturates are high?


I looked form the POV if you ate 10 (giving you 100% off your RDA for calories)


So 10 bars

RDA Calories 100%

RDA Sugar 20%

RDA Fat 110%

RDA Satuarates 200%

RDA Salt 70%



Strikes me thay are fatty, but I am no expert. I tried to compare to a mars bar but unsurpringly I couldn't find a mars bar broken down in to RDA!

How are you with liquids (if you don't mind me asking)


I have used Dunns River as a meal replacement in the past, again cannot find RDA amounts other than it claims to be high in protein and 100% of the RDA for viatamins and minerals

I think I'm good with smooth liquid ( as long as it's no strawberry or chocolate flavour )

Oh (confused) - I thought that chocolate was one of the things that you felt good about!

No-No you are right but this is where SED rally ****'s with you.

I like Chocolate and nuts, but put the 2 together and I FREAK

I used to eat bars and bars of Dairy Milk Chocolate but put it in liquid form and I'd be close to having a break down

I have no idea why !

I used to quite enjoyed this with a plain brown roll at lunchtime, looking at it its quite sugary but I suspect better than a mars and a pack of ready salted.

On the nut thing if I had to eat unsalted I would have cashews.
