    what is your favorite protein bar? Do you use it as a meal? Or snack? I love Luna protein cookie dough bars. Looking for non nut suggestions

    12 grams of protein and 170 calories? Sad. Have you tried the Quest cookie dough? 20 grams of protein for 190.

    Quest raspberry cheesecake is amazing. But quest bars can be hard to find sometimes depending on where you live. I also really like Luna bars in lemon zest and mint chocolate flavor.

    Yea it is!! And the new S'mores one too.

    Where do you all get your protein bars? At health food stores or local stores like CVS or Walmart?

    GNC, NutriShop, VitaminShoppe, etc. I would say anywhere you can buy weight lifting supplements will have the higher quality ones. Beware though, there are so many that are really just garbage...

    I've looked everywhere for quest bars but I can't seem to find them. I'll have to look at GNC

    I'm looking into protein bars, but it seems most of them have either chicory root (which can cause bad bloating and gas in some people) or artificial sweeteners. They would be really convenient for days when I'm away from home.

    I had heard so much about these Quest bars... Managed to find them in a health food shop here, paid an extortionate £2.50 for it... GROSS! Like chewing on a pencil eraser. I just don't get it.

    Anyway... I DO like the Nature Valley protein bars - pumpkin/sunflower seed ones and also peanut/chocolate. Yum! I had one today in fact.

    eta: And I just realised you asked for non-nut suggestions so you can go ahead and ignore me haha (even the pumpkin/sunflower seed one also has peanuts!)...

    HAnds down, Quest BArs are the best followed by Pure Protein. Both have high protein & low sugar......

    I love Luna bars too. They're not as high in protein as some other bars for the calories, but to me they taste miles better than any other bar, and I don't really have a problem hitting my protein macro on a weekly basis with or without them. Woodman's has them for 99 cents in my area, so they're affordable as well.

    I use them as a snack, in place of less filling options when I'm looking for something sweet between meals or before bed.

    I can't really get why they seem to be marketed exclusively towards women, though.

    Yeah, if you have a GNC they'll have them.

    Quest bars are amazing!
    I've tried so many flavours, and haven't found one that I didn't like.
