Iโ€™m a 36-year-old gay man and I enjoy fiber-rich snacks and Metamucil wafers. Fiber is important to everyoneโ€™s dietโ€”and nearly all Americans just donโ€™t get enough of it! As a lover of all things coffee and all things fiber, I was immediately drawn to this snack on my last visit to my local Albertsonโ€™s. What follows is my honest, no-bull review of the Fiber One 70 Calorie Coffee Cake Soft-Baked Bar.

I prefer to dive into a Fiber One 70 Calorie Coffee Cake Soft-Baked Bar mid-morning with my second or third cup of coffee. It’s a great in-between snack after my usual Grape Nuts, fruit, and nonfat yogurt breakfast and before my low-carb chicken salad wrap luncheon.

According to the website, these new Fiber One 70 Calorie Coffee Cake Soft-Baked Bar treats have a new recipe. This new recipe boasts less sugarโ€”that’s good! But you might be disheartened by this productโ€™s reliance on palm oil byproducts and sugar alcohol sweetenersโ€”that’s bad!

But look past those shortcoming and you’ll be pleasantly surprised by the Fiber One 70 Calorie Coffee Cake Soft-Baked Bar’s delightful cinnamon crunch, low-calorie footprint, and a generous helping of nourishing, binding fiber.

Pros: A delightful fiber-rich snack that pairs well with just about any coffee beverage.

Cons: An unmistakable erythritol aftertaste that you want to get used to, but never do. Fiber supplement beginners ought to start slow on this snack bar to minimize potential gastrointestinal discomfort.

What Others Are Saying

Out of nearly 6,000 global ratings on Amazon, this product boasts an impressive 4.3 out of 5-star rating. Lower ratings are generally due to shipping inconveniences and/or incorrect package size. I always make sure to pick mine up at my local grocer after checking the Sunday supplements for coupons and sales.
