- Not For Wusses It Seems
Zen, Birmingham 07/11/2011
You have to laugh at some of the exaggeratedly critical reviews below. Worst tasting bar ever? Tastes like sick? The reality is that the chocolate flavour bar is bland, a bit gritty from the added creatine and has a slight chemical aftertaste, none of which is very noticeable in the more flavoursome choc/orange variant. Either way, hardly a chore to to get down when all is said and done.
If these bars give you an attack of the vapours then your delicate nature is really going to have its work cut out in the gym when you encounter weights.
- Cardboard Tastes Better
Danny, Berkshire 20/10/2011
I'm generally a real fan of Maximuscle's MRP bars - but stick to Promax Meal and Promax Diet if you actually possess taste buds. Because I'd always liked the taste of their bars, I actually bulk bought 36 Cyclone bars once......what followed was several weeks of abject torture. The taste is indescribably bad - so much so it became a standing joke in my office as everyone would gather round to enjoy my various facial grimaces as I ate them. One day, I made the claim 'I bet cardboard would taste better' - so you know what happened next don't you? I tore off the corner of a box and ate the cardboard - and it DID. Awful, awful, dreadful stuff. Not fit for slugs. Conversely, the Cyclone shakes aren't TOO bad. I have copy and pasted my own review here from another (very) well known website, just in case you thought DS are trying to be naughty! To be honest, I really like this website, because they've published ALL the reviews both good and bad which I've ever submitted. And let's face it, if and when they publish this, it proves it's a website to be trusted. Nice one DS.
- Very Good Ingredients

It's a very good bad with good amount of protein and complex and simple carbs as well. Good have some less fats but it's ok on that scope. Have not tried chocolate, which many people speak foul of, but honestly the choc orange is very good. I wont compare it to supreme protein which are actually candy bars with protein (that means all the nasty stuff in as well), but as a protein bar the taste is really good and really light.
