The packaging for Promax bars features the text “Great Tasting Energy Bar” and that about sums it up. When it comes to bars in the collective “protein” or “energy” categories I’ve come full circle and tasted pretty much all of them.

Power, Clif, Detour, Luna, Lara, Kardea, Honest and MetRx and Glo – I’ve eaten (and enjoyed) them all. Some bars are great and some are passable. The Double Fudge Brownie flavor of Promax are great and satisfy all of my energy bar needs, which you may be familiar with by now.
It’s hard to quantify what makes a bar great rather than just good, but in the case of Promax Double Fudge Brownie I can offer a few simple statements that say what I mean.
- It tastes like chocolate fudge brownie. Not chocolate with a side of iron or metal, just chocolate fudge brownie.
- It has a pleasing consistency reminiscent of fudge brownies, not of soft brick or gooey chocolate sauce.

It leaves me satisfied with the feeling that I’ve eaten something not only worthy of my time and effort, but also nutritional expectations. While they won’t leave you giant, green and ready to HULK SMASH! things, you won’t be looking to eat another one immediately and that – for a hungry man of intense lifestyle such as myself – is the most important thing.
A box of Promax Double Fudge Brownies was furnished courtesy of Promax for this review, however I also purchased a Promax Cookies and Creme Bar after I ate the whole box over the course of 2 weeks. Another Promax Fudge Brownie Bar was purchased after that when I began to miss the double fudge brownie flavor prior to writing this review.
