Best tasting protein bars?



Recommended Posts

I like Pure Protein from Sam's Club. Box has 3 flavors. 20g Protein and either 2 or 1g sugar. I also like Quest Bars that are naturally sweetened. chocolate Chunk and coconut cashew are my favorites.

I've tried Quest, premier, pure Protein and many other "regular" Protein Bars and didn't like any of them. It's mostly a texture thing, but I'm not a fan of the "artificial" taste, either. I have found 3 that I like though, and I keep them handy for lunch on the go. They may not pack as much of a Protein punch, but their protein/sugar/calorie ratios are acceptable to me...

Natures Valley Protein (nuts and soy protein isolate) 10g protein/6g sugar/190 cal. You are chewing actual nuts, not a Gummy, pasty glob of protein.

GNC Total Lean (soy protein crisp, whey protein, milk powder) 15g protein/4-7g sugar/170-180 calories. Texture like a rice crispy treat.

Fiber One Protein caramel nut (peanuts, soy protein isolate) 7g protein/7g sugar/130 calories. This one barely qualifies as a Protein Bar (ok, it really doesn't) but it's like eating a snickers!

Suggestion pls

Quest hands-down favorite, especially the Cookies and Cream and the Cinnamon Roll flavors. The Peanut Butter and Jelly is nice too but not worth the calories. I'd highly suggest buying an individual one vs a whole box so you don't get stuck with a flavor you don't like.

I agree Pure Protein first and then Quest Bars

Supreme Protein caramel nut, orange wrapper....yummy

Sold in Walmart or GNC. I buy them in a box of 5 snack size that I sometimes eat one for a meal. Since surgery, I cannot consume a full size bar.

@@DonRodolfo Our local GNC stopped carrying Quest bars. The owner said it was because they changed the formulas and now use more artificial things, which increased the sugar alcohols and he did want to carry them. Have you found that to be true?

This is news to me but it's possible. I find it curious that the GNC website still carries them.

Next time I'm at a GNC in the DFW area I'll ask.

This is an independent franchise, and he's super picky about what he carries. Our mall one does still have them!

Without a doubt Quest Protein Bars: White chocolate Raspberry, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough or Cookies and Cream

Quest Bars hands down. Taste is great, but the ingredients are what make them stand out. Very pure in comparison to what is on the market.

"Oh yea" bars are pretty awesome! 20g of Protein and they taste like a snickers bar. I have only found them at Albertsons and Amazon. Best Protein Bar I have ever tasted. And I have tasted ALOT

      Question for anyone, how did you get your mind right before surgery? Like as far as eating better foods and just doing better in general? I'm having a really hard time with this. Any help is appreciated 🙏❤️

      I've hit a stall 9 months out. I'm not worried, though. My fitness levels continue to improve and I have nearly accomplished my pre-surgery goal of learning to scuba dive! One dive left to complete to get my PADI card 🐠
      I was able to go for a 10K/6mile hike in the mountains two days ago just for the fun of it. In the before days, I might have attempted this, but it would have taken me 7 or 8 hours to complete and I would have been exhausted and in pain for the next two days. Taking my time with breaks for snacks and water, I was finished with my wee jaunt in only 4 hours 😎 and really got to enjoy photographing some insects, fungi, and turtles.
      Just for fun last week, I ran two 5Ks in two days, something I would have never done in the past! Next goal is a 10K before the end of this month.

      Hi everyone, I wrote back in May about having no strength. I still get totally exhausted just walking from room to room, it’s so bad I’m using a walker with wheels of all things. I had the gastric sleeve Jan. 24th. I’m doing exactly what the programs says, except protein shakes. I have different meats and protein bars daily, including vitamins daily. I do drink my fluids as well.  I go in for IV hydration 4 days a week and feel ok just til evening.  So far as of Jan 1st I’ve dropped 76 lbs. I just want to enjoy the weight lose. Any suggestions or has anyone else gone thru this??  Doctor says just increase calorie intake, still the same.

      Losing my hair in clumps and still dealing with "stomach" issues from gallbladder removal surgery. On the positive side I'm doing better about meeting protein and water goals and taking my vitamins, so yay? 🤷‍♀️
