Has anyone tried the Pure Protein crunch bars? I happened to pick up a box of them at costco yesterday after reading the label for a few minutes thinking about it. The package my local Costco had contained 6 of each kind: Double chocolate Peanut Butter Crunch and Double Chocolate vanilla Crunch.

I wish they had a little bit more protein per bar (only 17g), and a little less carbs (14g per bar with 5g sugar, and 4g sugar alcohol), but they only come in at 190 calories per bar. I've had one of each kind and they taste like you should be eating a delish candy bar.

Just wondering thoughts from anyone else on here that has tried them. I have a few boxes of Quest bars, but it's always good to have a variety. Makes for a great snack or Meal Replacement. I find they seem to fill me up more then the Quest bars do!

Attached a couple of pics of the Peanut Butter:

It's funny but I just got some Pure Protein bars at costco as well and they didn't have the ones like you got. These are 20g protein and 14 carb. and look different, but also peanut butter/ chocolate. Doesn't make sense but, I guess it depends where the Costco is located. I'm in Miami.

I like the Pure Protein Revolution bars, 20gm Protein. 190 calories 6g Fat, 10g Net carbs (17, less the 7 Sugar alcohols) I like them better than the other Pure Protein Bars, and my NUT approved, but only 1 a day. My Walmart carries them, costco by me does not.

I'm in Canada, so I'm sure my Costco carries different stuff

My NUT approves them too. I am approaching 7 weeks post op and just got cleared to have them. I am thankful for the bars as I am on the go a lot and these make it a little easier.

I was told only one a day as well. I only eat 1/2 as my meal/snack...i find them pretty filling.

Approved the Quest bars too although I havent tried them yet. The other one is Think Thin and those are good. Filling too.

I thought the carbs indicated on the label might be too high for all of them but my NUT looks at the formula for carbs alongside the Protein, fat and Fiber grams.

_{any good Protein bar is a good alternative to an unhealthy snack with no nutritional value. I love to eat a Protein Bar as a snack when im outside or even as a snack in between meals. for less than 200 calories im getting a good amount of Vitamins and protein and actually eating something that I think tastes good too. there are a lot worse things you could be eating so enjoy them if you like them.}
