Coconut bar

[bit2lose37]

I've been looking on web site as I'm going to need to order more supplies and noticed there is a coconut bar anyone know what it's like?

It's like a dark chocolate bounty but more coconut less choccie. Order a sample, give it a whirl! X

 

[hollycat]

Not quite Bounty...but still delicious

 

[bit2lose37]

Yes I think I might have to, I didn't like the truffle bar but liked the lemon.

Think I'll give the samples a go as not tried the mushroom pasta or Mac and cheese

I like the coconut one. It tastes like a bounty but doesn't have the same texture.

Ha, I just realised who you are bit2lose! You were lots2lose and must have changed your username. I saw your stats and thought, I recognise those stats. Not many people lose 3lbs every single week and then change to 2lbs one week 4lbs the next! Welcome back xx

I can't answer the coconut question tho as I've never had one

 

[bit2lose37]

Yes i figured now that i dont have much to lose i best change to bit to lose lol, woohooo look at our bmi boardersgirl so close now.

Yes like clock work was my weight loss lol, but still hated the 2lbs weeks but loved the 4lbs hehehe

Ive just ordered some samples in preperation for my main order.

so ive got a sample of the coconut bar, the vanila one , mushroom pasta and the mac and cheese.

I haven't tried the new bars but I have tried the mac cheese and the mushroom pasta. Find them better added to some veggies to be honest with a bit more water, like a sauce. The first mac cheese I made was a disaster. More of it stuck to the bowl than was in the bowl so I had to try to scrape it off the sides!

Oh dear and judging on my lack of skill in the kitchen I may well have this problem also. Lol

I'm not keen on the sound of Mac and cheese but was hoping to put broc with it like cheese broc pasta kinda thing. I've still got the crispy shakes as not ventured into those. Lol

The mac cheese is fine over brocolli, as is the mushroom pasta over more mushrooms (or whatever). I just didn't think they were much cop as a standalone meal to be honest. Too small, even for us VLCDers . I'm not into the crispy shakes really. I'm into hot vanilla latte shakes as my latest craze. Was a time I only wanted cold banana and strawberry shakes so it changes depending on my mood.

 

[bit2lose37]

yes its funny how our taste changes on here. mmmm has just given me the ideal when i did a vlcd before in summer i would put half a pint of water in the kenwood blender thing with 11 ice cubes and my powder shake and out would come a very thick shake type of ice cream mmmmm. so if only summer would come back i could start having some of these again.

can the coconut bar be zapped into a biscuit in the microwave like some of the others or does it not work with this bar?

The Coconut bar Praline bar and Vanilla and Almond are really really light bars and dare I say much lighter in texture than a Milky Way or the old Flyte bars and leave me feeling 'empty' TBH! The Truffa bars and Maple and Almond bars are very rich and more filling, but unlike some other VLCD bars, they don't really feel like they are an actual 'meal replacement', I think others have mentioned this too....

I don't think there would be any need to microwave these bars but you could risk it, but given the fact they are 'chocolate bars', I think you would just be left with mush!! x

Haven't tried the buscuit thing with the coconut one - love it with the lemon though!
