Power bars?

What's so great about power bars? I'm just trying to lose some weight and get a little more fit ... not training for the Olympics. I'm sure they contain great nutrients but they also have 200+ calories per shot. I'm already having a couple of EAS shakes a day (8 oz) and taking vitamins. So why should I consider power bars? Thanks!

    If someone at the gym is offering them, they are probably just trying to make money. You don't *need* bars, or shakes, even most vitamins if you have a varied diet. They can be useful as portable meals, it all depends on what best suits your needs.
