Protein bar recommendations?

I will be 6 weeks out and traveling. I was planning on having at least one protein drink a day, but a protein bar would be much easier when traveling. Does anyone know of a tasty protein bar that is soft (not crunchy, I am only 6 weeks out) and low in sugar?

Quest are the best ones I've had. The Atkins ones are good too.

Quest! 6week out myself and I can handle them pretty well. Adkins and south beach have some pretty decent ones but quest is not chalky

Quest protein bars. I ordered online the variety pack. I believe it was 12 bars for around $25. I've tried a couple and liked them all so far. They suggest warming up in microwave which makes some of them even better. Low sugar, 20g of protein.

Thanks! Time to go shopping and taste testing today.

I like quest too! Be careful with the Atkins. I ate one last night had 11 grams of sugar alcohol and it made me nausea!! Didn't dump thank gawd!

Zone perfect are by far the best tasting and it had Vitamins and minerals. I love the strawberry yogurt and white chocolate macadamia

I'm gonna need to find a zone!! White choc macadamia sounds like heaven

"Oh Yeah" bars are awesome and some have 28grams per bar. They taste just like a candy bar. Peanut butter fudge, chocolate coconut and more... my nut analyzed them and they are all good protein

How many grams of sugar?

I'm afraid to try Zone bars. I'm concerned that 15 g of sugar will cause me to dump. I'm carefulemtomstay in the 3-5 sugars per 100 cal range. It severely limits my protein bar choices!

Me too...I've been looking around but the sugar and carbs scare me.

No problems with sugar so far! I just try to limit the Atkins bars because of the fat and carbs. Quest is definitely the best IMO.
