Chef Jay's Product Reviews

Many health conscious consumers seem to prefer Chef Jay’s oat bars to other protein bars. Some found them to be too crumbly, but tasty. Others thought the bars were too dry. One reviewer was a frequent buyer who was pleased with the oat bar until several months of shipments were dry and “old tasting” according to the reviewer.

Many customers love the cookies and gourmet brownies. One person who preferred cookies thought they would try the bars and was disappointed. One of the most appealing aspects of Chef Jay’s Tri-O-Plex choices are the flavors. The only big consumer problem arose with the contaminated peanut butter products, which had to be recalled because of the salmonella scare of 2009.
