Legendary Foods 22g Protein Pastry 0g Added Sugar, Low Carb, Gluten Conscious, Keto Snack, Ideal for Glucose Management, Includes Whey Protein Isolate, 8 Pack Frosted Cinnamon

These are not your usual Pop-Tarts. They're better. These have a ton of protein, around 22 grams of it. They have 24g of "carbohydrate", but roughly 9 of that is dietary fiber, 10g of erythritol (a sugar alcohol natural substance that has practically 0 calories), and 9g of total fat, 2 of which are saturated. They're 200 calories each. But they have a ton of actual nutrition, and less than a gram of what we think of as "sugar", which is table sugar, Sucrose. All of the flavors of these products, including the shown "S'mores" flavor, are good. Some of them are excellent, like the Double Chocolate and the Cinnamon Spice. This particular variety doesn't really taste a whole lot like a S'more. The icing is supposed to be marshmallow flavored, but is just sweet and tasty. The crust doesn't taste like a graham cracker very much, but it tastes good. The filling is chocolatey and sweet, but isn't like a melted square from a Hershey bar. All in all, this is their less impressive flavor, but it still is pretty darned good. And it has actual nutrition. A ton of protein, without tasting anything like your typical protein bar, which tastes too "healthy" without actually tasting GOOD. Some typical protein bars taste good, especially Clif bars, but to do that, they have to basically be cookies, with all the bad stuff we over indulge in, and get our bodies out of whack. These Legendary pastries do not do that. I've been eating a lot of their products lately, along with Zevia soda, and granulated erythritol in my coffee. And my biannual bloodwork just came in, giving me an A1C of 5.3. And I'm Type II diabetic. 2 years ago, my A1C was 10.1. So you do the math.

I have been gluten free for 15 years. This is a great treat that has a nice amount of protein as well. I have bought these multiple times. I have shared with friends and they have also started buying these as a great snack option.

Let's talk about Legendary keto pastries. I've been on a low carb diet for a couple years now and was looking for something quick I could eat for breakfast. It tried the chocolate, strawberry, blueberry (this one), and cherry. They're all ok. They're not pop-tarts, but they're ok. Blueberry is my second favorite behind cherry. Others my like them too because sometimes they're out of stock. Eventually I moved full keto and gave these up. They started tasting too sweet, and I couldn't justify the $30+ price tag on a box of 10 of them. They're just too expensive. In my mind they're a good transition snack into a keto diet or maybe an occasional snack. I don't recommend them as a daily meal replacement.

I ordered the legendary Smores and really liked the flavor, even if the artificial sweetener taste was a bit obvious, but the blueberry flavor was not great. Came in fine, no sort of icepack or anything to keep it cool so keep that in mind, especially in California summer heat for me. The frosted blueberry vice the smores was far too sweet tasting and made me feel sick just eating one. Understandably so, the sucralose in the ingredients is far too strong and the artificial sweetener taste overpowered my taste buds. This is present in their other products, but for the blueberry it stood out far more. Also, note the price. A bit high considering what you get. Each package comes with one pastry, with 8 pastries total. When I bought it that would mean it would be 3.75 per pastry. Would you buy protein poptarts for $7.50? Poptarts may not have protein but the price difference is a bit crazy if you do the math. **UPDATE** Legendary foods contacted me saying they were sorry they heard I wasn't satisfied with the product and sent my suggestion on packing to corporate and processed a refund to my account for my order that I made over a month ago (September 8th). That was very nice to see and I was honestly surprised. I brought my review from 3 stars to 5 just alone due to the customer service. In my eyes, if your willing to pay the cost and try the food, try it. If you aren't satisfied Legendary foods seem pretty competent on their customer service side and I don't see why you wouldn't at least try it.

I am torn on these pastries, I got several flavors to try. They do cost a lot (look for a coupon) but can satisfy an urge. The flavors are actually pretty good. I wish I could put them in the toaster like a regular toaster pastry (PopTart). I do put them in the microwave for about 11 seconds to warm them up. They are a little smaller than I recall the regular ones are. As I said, they taste pretty good. But something in the formulation - I think it's the sweetener in the frosting - makes my tongue feel a little - weird! IDK how to describe it. I know it's not an allergy or anything like that. Just - weird. Mostly, I like them. May not purchase again though.

Delicious way to get protein in! Highly recommend reman microwaving for a few seconds before eating. It makes it even tastier. You can taste the sweetener after taste a little bit which isn’t the best but not terrible. Texture is nice. It’s a little crumbly so not the best food to eat in the car lol

My husband loves these! Says smores is the top flavor. We have them on monthly delivery since they’re so good. Always fresh and taste great

I love these pastries, and eat at least 1 per day, I recommend them to everyone. I do find Amazon has old stock, compared to the ones I buy locally at Publix, and they tend to also have less sprinkles, if any, which I find so odd. This flavor is not available locally, so I am forced to buy online. Still good.
