Thread: yummy Alpen Light bar

I have just had a Summer Fruit flavoured Alpen Light bar, and I have to say it is by far the nicest one I have tried. It is really yummy and I thoroughly recommend it. I am looking forward to the other one I can have later now

i also like the apple one, have you tried that?

isnt it funny how different we all are, I really dislike that one,think its far too sweet, I like the fudge ones dont tend to have them too often,trying to ween myself off having too many sweets.glad you like them and they will help you to stay on the straight and narrow

I used to like the apple ones but now find them too sweet. I like the fudge ones but they are out of stock around here

No the apple and sultana rock!!!!

They are the best but I actually like all the flavours!!!

Yummy, Yummy, Yummy!

I like the chocolate fudge one as well but I think I OD'd on Alpen Lights LOL. For two weeks running, I ate at least 2 a day as 1 HexB but would sometimes syn one or two in the evening. I ate bucket loads of them. Each week I only lost 1lb so I stopped eating them and lost 3lbs the next week LOL. erm... I should have eaten them in moderation!!

I only use them as a HEXB about once a week, normally when I am on an awkward shift at work as they are easy and quick to eat in a break. I have tried the choc fudge but wasn't too keen and will definately try an apple one.

I love all of them but am annoyed and might boycott them (if I have the will power) as they've reduced the box size to only 5 bars and are still charging the same price!

Yeah that's terrible, reducing the number you get and keeping the price the same. You get five 21g bars for almost £2, that is SO expensive. PLUS, if you only use them for healthy B's then you have to buy TWO boxes because you'd have one odd one left over from a box of five!! Saying that, I really do like the chocolate fudge and summer fruits ones. I am yet to try apple and sultana, choc orange or citrus.

The 2 boxes I have in the cupboard both have 6 bars in, I just checked

mine have 6 in too?
i do love sainsburys bgty peach and apricot bars. You're only allowed one as a hexb but i love them! They're 3.5 syns otherwise

I like the Ryvita Goodness Bars - particularly the strawberry or the cranberry and apple varieties. I find them more filling than the Alpen bars and they can also be used as a HEB.
They are about the same price as the Alpen ones for a box of six. It's not really that expensive as you wouldn't think twice about spending 50p on a small chocolate bar

Mmmm, yeah I know what you're saying but chocolate bars are aroung 50g - 60g, not 21g!!

All the new Alpen Light packaging only contain 5 bars. You've got the 'old' ones!

I absolutely love the summer fruits alpen lights. I have then with a muller light. Think I may go and have that now...
