Better Brand earns mixed reviews: the high-protein, low‑carb bagels and buns satisfy cravings and keep many buyers full, but texture and flavor divide opinion. Reviews praise the impressive macros, clean ingredients, and sleek packaging, while calling out spongy or chewy interiors, occasional blandness or saltiness, fiber-related GI discomfort, and a need to toast or load with toppings.

These are perfect. Not too soft. Not too hard. Great taste.

Love the premise, the branding & the size of the bagels themselves. It's the perfect size!
Feedback
The texture was gooier than a normal bagel so would love to taste another iteration where that's improved.

After tasting the bagel, I was really impressed. It was so filling with all of its protein and nice to know it was low carbs. Great for diets. It taste great, not like a typical bagel, but delicious none the less. Try it with peanut butter or with cheese.

This product becomes tricky to eat because it needs to be stored frozen, so unless you remember to thaw one you wont have it available when you are ready to eat it. I recommend taking one out the night before and leave it in the fridge for the next day to eat it.

I tried their new Everything flavor recently and it blew me away. It caught me off guard because I expected the texture and flavor to be diminished because of the low carb high protein features, but it actually tasted just like a bagel...but better. Highly recommend!

Taste is great! Price could be a little lower.

I am obsessed with these bagels! They have been my guilt-free, protein packed breakfast, almost everyday, since I started ordering them in October 2021. As a vegan, I'm always looking for healthy ways to increase my protein intake and with 26g of protein, they're the equivalent of a protein shake. They taste great and toast great, especially if your toaster has a 'bagel' feature on it. I also love that they are low carb/sugar, and all natural. Many of the other reviews mention the texture, shape and having to 'freeze or eat them'. Sure, the texture is slightly different than a "regular" bagel, but these are a healthier, plant-based alternative to a "regular" bagel, so I'm not sure why one would expect them to be the same texture. Since they are handmade, there will obviously be some variations in size and shape, but they always taste great! Most all natural foods do not contain preservatives, so it makes sense that they should be consumed or frozen. I keep my open bag in the refrigerator and the rest in the freezer. When I eat the last one, I put a new bag in the refrigerator. I highly recommend these to everyone, especially f you are plant-based or health conscious. Though a little more expensive than a "regular" bagel, the high-protein, low carb makes it totally worth! Price does decrease with a subscription and shipping has always been fast.

Pre-sliced would be nice, especially on the delicious new Everything Bagels!

Overall I was pretty disappointed with them. Yes they're healthy, but they taste powdery and like they're made of protein powder. They also crisp up in the toaster in a very strange way, becoming dry and stale instead of toasted. They are also insanely expensive.
Feedback
They need to improve the recipe to make them work more like bagels, or change the shape to not make the comparison to bagels, maybe bread or English muffin style.

Look into this brand more and do your research.

I really wanted to like this given the great nutritional value, the innovation, and the female founder. The taste is good, but the spongy texture didn't go away even after toasting. Any advice?

Send pre-sliced bagels so it is easy to freeze and toast. Perhaps more flavors of bagels?
