I’ve always been a big fan of Hammer Nutrition.  My favorite products are the Cafe Latte Perpetuem, Huckleberry Gel, and Strawberry Heed.

The Hammer Bars have never really caught my attention……..until now.

My wife and I tried two new flavors this week.  We used them before a circuit class, skate skiing, backcountry skiing, and resort skiing.

The two new flavors are Oatmeal Apple and Cranberry.

PROS

-Taste, think Quaker Oats Square with subtle apple or cranberry

-Ease on the stomach, I ate one 5m before skate skiing and I felt great

-Size, they are small and squish-able, I carried two in my parka pocket, squished them completely and they were still great

-Day 4 my wife was selling people on the chairlift about the “organic ingredients, and taste”

CONS

-Packaging, as with all bars it’s hard to un-wrap if you were going cross-eyed

-You can eat to many
