    Default MTS Outright Bar Review


    MTS Outright Bar



    https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=8uxKzCgtaIk





    Taste


    Chocolate Chip Peanut Butter - When I took my first bite of this bar it made me think I was eating two protein bars I had before. Take a hybrid of Animal Snak PB Chocolate Chip, and Redcon1's Oatmeal chocolate chip MRE brand mix them together. The peanut butter is the dominant flavor as the oatmeal and chocolate chip inclusions enhance the bar to the fit the flavors name. The peanut butter base is done just right with a slight hint of saltiness and has dense creamy aftertaste.





    PB Oatmeal Raisin - This flavor is unique because it carries over the bold peanut butter bar base and a mixture of an oatmeal raisin cookie. The oatmeal and raisin flavors are subtle to the heavy peanut butter bar. While the inclusions are the mere aftertaste, I would personally like to see a better balance of oatmeal and raisins. This is not a bad bar by any means, but I prefer the PB oatmeal Chocolate chip due to how all the flavors compliment each other in a much better ratio.





    Texture


    The texture of the bars correlates a soft cookie. They are a bit firm on the outside but you can puncture them with your finger. The middle is soft, chewy, and melts in your mouth. I have not tried putting them in a microwave, but I would imagine it would melt the chocolate chips. This is a bar that doesn't need to have anything done to it as the texture is just right and is easy to chew.


    Macros





    Calories ~ 270-280
    Fat ~ 11-12g
    Carbs ~ 26-27g
    Protein ~ 15g


    Ingredients: Peanut Butter, Honey, Oats, MTS Isolate Protein, Semi Sweet Chocolate Chips, Cocoa Powder (Raisin's in the other flavor)


    Cost


    $24.99 a Box of 12 bars, which comes out to $2.08/Bar. Given websites do run sales and promotions getting these under $2 would be an easy buy. When you stack them to other bars on the market it is hard to compare them to bars that have a different ingredient profile. Marc takes a lot of pride is using no fake sugars, or fiber sources to construct a whole food bar.


    Overall


    THE PROS


    • Affordably priced at $24.99 for a box of 12 ($2.08 per bar)
    • 6 simple whole food ingredients
    • Digest easy and don't leave any bloat (like sugar alcohols or artificial sweeteners may do)
    • Impressive taste and texture that just melts in your mouth (even out of the wrapper)
    • Unique balance ratio of Carbs, Protein and fats


    THE CONS


    • Need a higher protein content (15 a touch too low). Around 20g would be better

    Great review! I was looking for a good review because most people just say "it's good" and don't even post a picture showing the texture! Can't wait too try one.
