Protein Bar Nutrition Guidelines

I talked to the dietitian, and she gave me some guidelines to follow when shopping for protein bars, which I thought might be helpful to others:

Look for:

1. At least 14 grams of protein

2. Less than 20 grams of carbs

If anyone finds a good one, would you please share the name of it? I looked at many labels yesterday but discovered most do not fit these guidelines. I did buy some chocolate peanut butter flavored ones at Target (Market Pantry brand) that almost fit (14 g protein/21 g carbs) the guidelines. They kind of, with an emphasis on "kind of", taste like a candy bar.

I've been wondering about her, too. Hopefully, she's just super busy.
