good interview on rkp podcast
If you like skratch drinks and the new bars it's worth listening to this interview with one of the founders on RKP podcast.

I got mine and then promptly took them on a 200k brevet on Saturday.
The cherry and pistachio bar was excellent. The chocolate chip and almond was acceptable. The ginger and miso was gross. It tasted like a granola bar with a lot of pepper in it. I'll pass on that flavor. Overall, I would buy them if their pricepoint was lower. I normally stick to Clif bars and sometimes Lara bars. The Skratch bars are more than double the price, even with the coupon. Last edited by tctyres; 06-11-2018 at 04:07 PM. |

I threw the ginger one to the weeds. That was terrible. The other two were okay.

I've not tried the ginger/miso yet. Anything that might've tasted like a chocolate chip was overpowered by the dried cranberries which weren't even listed as a main ingredient on the bar. The cherry/pistachio was OK but nothing to get excited about. Overall, I found the two rather bland --- I'm scared to try the ginger one after reading above!

tried the ginger/miso on this evening's ride. Didn't have the strong negative response that some others have. Taste was ok, but I'd want to use it on tours/easy rides vs hard efforts as it was sharp and felt I needed a lot of water afterwards. I think it would be distracting during harder effort rides.

liked the ginger / miso, probably more so than the other two flavors...
bottom line is that I don't see myself ever purchasing any of them. |

Just tried my free sample at yesterday's ride.
Don't like it. Too sweet. Too sticky. Still prefer this. Cheap cheap @ Costco. Bought like a dozen back a few months ago when they had a sale. Ate them as snacks even off the bike Depleted my supplies, need to restock.
