Slimfast Keto Bombs are a match made in heaven that ended up sending us straight to hell. That was a little dramatic, but it’s not hard for you to tell where this is going, and apparently very quickly.
Peanut Butter Cup Slimfast Keto Bombs
Youāll have to forgive that little opening, but for context. I am a HUGE fan of peanut butter cups. Back in my 300 lbs days it was nothing to scoff down a couple of bars or a whole pack of minis during snack time. Homemade ones!!! Bring them on. For some reason that combination of peanut butter and chocolate in a bite sized format spoke to me my entire life.
Since being on keto I have obviously done away with my frequent obsession, but Iāve still made them a couple of times and purchased them from a local keto shop. Issues there are expense and homemade is quite labour intensive. When I was walking through the store and saw the words āKeto Made Easy,ā I was instantly hesitant, but the appeal of that sweet treat with only 2 net carbs was calling my name.
Eating Slimfast Keto Bombs In The Name of Science
As always I grabbed the box and like a good keto boy looked at the label. It was 7 carbs per cup, with 3 fiber and 2 erythritol (a preferred sugar alcohol). I was in shock as the ingredients werenāt perfect, but they were far from awful. They were a little pricey at $15.99 Canadian for 14 pieces, but in the name of science I was willing to splurge.
I rushed home with what I figured was going to be a game changer for me. I cracked open the box and the first thing I noticed was the cups were all individually wrapped.Ā Nice touch. I grabbed one and instantly noticed they were tiny. At only 17 grams each there isnāt a whole lot to hold on to, but considering the contents I was willing to overlook that.
I tore into that little package like Ralphie opening up his BB Gun and took a bite that wrote half of the cup off in one foul swoop. Like someone tasting a fine wine I held it in my mouth for a minute and let my taste buds explore. What is that first flavor? Itās not chocolate, itās not peanut butterā¦ itās chalk??? It certainly tastes like chalk.
I Wrote Down Chalk
In fact whenever I try a new keto product for the first time I make notes. All I wrote was CHALK? How could something that looks so good and actually has ingredients I can live with taste like something my grade 8 health teacher used to throw at me?
The texture was even what I would consider eating a softened chalk to be. It was firm, and just kind of nasty. I ate the second half and my taste buds started to rebel a bit. My brain had worked them up into a lather over the prospect and all I delivered was chalk.
I grabbed Wendy and popped a piece in her mouth. Guess what word came out of her mouth? āChalky.ā Itās Wendy, the āyā makes it classier and nicer. She had the exact experience I did, even adding, āthat doesnāt taste like any peanut butter cup Iāve ever had before.ā
Slimfast Keto Bombs Are Pricey
$15.99 and I was going to be throwing out 90% of the package. We found them uneatable. Iām not one to throw food out, but I wouldnāt donate those little chalk nuggets to my worst enemy. If I was using a scale of one to ten I could use them to write on itā¦ not good. Simply not good.
I donāt believe in most keto products, hence I donāt use them. These Slimfast Keto Fat Bombs are a prime reason why. Youāre sold something that is simply too good to be true. How someone could take such simple ingredients and turn them into chalk is quite frankly shocking.
You May Have To Do It Yourself
The entire experience takes me back to the old adage, āif you want something done right, do it yourself.ā Weāre just going to take the time and make our own from now on. We know 100% whatās in them and they taste so good. Definitely worth the work. Slimfast Keto Bombs arenāt worth opening the package.
Iām off to the kitchen. Bill
