    I've had the Trail bars from Holland and Barrett.

    Begining to think I'm an idiot as I didn't check anything but the protein... :noway:

    I'm limited as can't have bars containing whey.

    I find them useful to have in the car as some of my commutes should be an hour but can end up being up to four hours, and in my bag as I have to eat every couple of hours or I go silly dizzy and can't concentrate (checked by doc, all okay).

    Interested in looking at the homemade version, so thank you for this thread :bigsmile:

    I like protein bars as a quick on-the-go snack when I need to get some protein in. I don't buy ones that have substantially more sugar than protein, and I generally look for a "clean" ingredient list.
    My favorites are Oatmega bars and ThinkThin. PowerCrunch is pretty good too.

    Quest bars

    It s easy to say eat more food with protein, but as an incredibly fussy vegetarian I find a protein supplement can help :)

    "glorified candy bar"
    Just eat real food.
    I agree

    Also agree. Talk to most nutritionists and they will tell you a Snickers bar has more nutritional value than most "protein bars"

    Quest is best. Macros can't be beat.

    On that note, I ate 2 today. SO GOOD.

    I've only tried choc chip cookie dough and double chocolate chunk. They're awesome.

    I love quest bars!! I get them at Gnc or hi health. There's a bit spendy, but the double choc chunk one left on my car's dashboard while I lift? All melted and pure heaven afterwards! And 20g of protein for 160 cals!! My treat each morning post workout! :)


    That's my fave Quest bar. I use them to supplement if I am running around (4 kids aged 9 through 14) and probably have a couple per week.
