 Delicious but staleAug 16, 2008
By Steve Savage

Bobo's are avabilable at my local organic market and I love them. For a few cents cheaper, and free shipping, I ordered them from Amazon. Alas, the produce that arrived had passed it Best By date by two months! What a disappointment. I guess I'm better off paying full price for a fresh product. And naturally food items are non-returnable, even when they are listed as "new" but arrive "old"!!!

 Bobo's Rock!Jan 14, 2009

All of us love the Bobo Bars! When we've hiked and camped, Bobo's have always been along for the ride. They are the perfect on-the-go nutritional meal replacement choice. It's like having a bakery in your pack!

I've purchased 4 boxes of Bobo's Oat Bars in the Chocolate variety from Amazon in the past month. An acquaintance had told me how delicious they were, so I took a chance and purchased my first box before I embarked on a trip, planning to take some along for the journey. Unfortunately for my wallet, every person but one to whom I gave a bar loved these, so I sent some a box to enjoy. Prior to my first purchase, I did not realize these are soft, sort of brownie like in texture, a little sweet in a molasses sort of way (no molasses in the recipe, though), crumbly, and with two servings in a single bar. Fortunately, I placed a bar in a small resealable plastic bag for the airplane trip, so I was able to break off a little piece any time I felt hungry. That bag was a saving grace because when a bar was gone, I replaced it with another and you won't believe how often I pulled out that little bag. I ordered the first box as a gift after I put a little bite into my father's mouth while he was busy enjoying himself at a slot machine and I realized that he needed to keep these on hand for him and Mom to have on the days they go out. For those who have few teeth, these are edible because of the soft texture, yet they provide an enjoyable flavor. Hiker's took these along for a day trip, not worrying about the double serving per package, happily eating the entire bar. As they put it, they felt like they had a brownie along for the trek, much more enjoyable than other bars they'd taken in the past. One sister has enjoyed these on days when she's been unable to break for lunch at work, having them with coffee or tea and some deep breaths. Without eggs, butter or flour, they are terrific, even though Earth Balance has never been my favorite flavor. I'll admit that I was expecting a firmer bar with visible chocolate chips, but after the surprise of a crumbly moist baked good with a not very sweet cocoa flavor, I was hooked. I will gladly try the other varieties when I can find them for a lower cost than over two dollars per bar. A retail value of about thirty dollars is too high for a dozen bars, so I've deducted a star from this review. The one friend who did not love her Bobo's Oat Bar thought it tasted like cardboard and she claimed to have forced it down at work. She loves the SOYJOY bars which I do not care for, so I guess the world is balanced.
It's a mystery (with just a hint of flim-flam)Aug 10, 2011

"... organic dark chocolate chips (organic sugar, organic chocolate liquor, organic cocoa butter, organic soy lecithin added as an emulsifier, organic vanilla) ..." - from the ingredients list, BOBO'S OAT BARS, CHOCOLATE
Several weeks ago, I reviewed Bobo's Oat Bars All Natural, Banana, 3-Ounce Packages (Pack of 12), to which I awarded four stars based on its excellent oat flavor and "mouth feel." However, it suffered the loss of a fifth star because "the ostensible banana taste was so subtle as to be virtually non-existent."
Because I love chocolate, I decided to give Bobo another shot with the chocolate version of her oat snack.
Dark chocolate is on the bar's ingredients list - as chips, no less. Buts it's a complete mystery to me where the essence of chocolate is lurking. Moreover, there isn't a chocolate chip in sight; I pulled the bar apart and examined it carefully. Granted, the bar has a darker shade of color than the other ones of the brand I've tried, so that at least implies chocolate is present. And, there's a faint nuance of some other flavor underlying the taste of oats, but, if anything, it's suggestive of molasses.
Mind you, I truly like these bars for the reasons previously stated. And I'll be sure to enjoy the remaining eleven of the dozen "chocolate" ones I purchased. But, as near as I can determine to date with the three types I've eaten, to claim there's any flavor present other than that of oats is a complete fiction and I've had to resist the impulse to award three stars or less for blatantly false advertising.
My husband LOVES Bobo Oat Bars.Apr 19, 2011
By Anne Woelkers
It is the only bar he will eat. He will eat all flavors except peanut butter. Banana and chocolate are his favorites of the bars.
