Somebody Suggestion A Good Protein Bar?!

I bought the pure protein bars and I hate them! Ugh! It's a lot of protein but they are tasteless. I was lookin into the Atkins bars? I see they have more flavors than chocolate and peanut butter. What kind are u guys tryin as a meal replacement?

Special K makes some great Protein bars. They have chocolate, chocolate caramel (my fav) and Peanut Butter chocolate. They have 10 grams of protein and are at a nice price point. I can buy them at BJ's 24 bars for $17.99!

My nut had warned that Protein Bars with a lot protein grams usually don't taste good.

But most stores sell protein bars in singles, so try all different kinds. Speaking from experience though keep a list of how good they are. I bought a bunch of bars, liked some hated others and thought some were ok. Unfortunately, I didn't write down what I thought, I figured surely I would remember,... yeah, I promptly forgot when I went to buy more!

I have a problem getting protein bars that aren't also loaded with sugar. I can handle sugar better than my Roux N Y wife, she gets heart palpitations, claminess, headaches, and light-headedness.

I like Jay Rob, order samples of different brands.

Careful of the ones with sugar alcohols. For some people they create excess gas or stomach cramps. I ended up with two days of gas. Learned the hard way.

I love the Nature Valley Protein Bars!

Surprisingly- the Nature Valley ones aren't "that" bad* for you and are available at most supermarkets.

In the grand scheme of things- having 1/2 of the NV Protein bars and a Muscle Milk Lite makes a pretty good snack or meal. I have a super busy job and they are my go-to meals a few times a week.

*Providing you just eat one and don't rely on them for all your meals. :)

My favorite are the OH Yeah bars. Have them at vitamin shop and vitacost. They are really good. Peanut butter and caramel are the best.
