    Not sure, but I look for them with more protein than carbs.

    20 or more grams of protein but low fat.

    I'd say it depends on your over all goal. If your daily protein is like 50.. 10 would be high. If it's like 300.... 28's doing good haha.

    20g seems to be the number in protein bars. They make larger ones that have more fat, calories and protein, though.

    I use them as a before and/or after workout snack so I stick with the smaller ones.


    .5 - 1.0g of protein per pound of lean muscle mass or goal body weight per day. This is good especially if you are weight lifting.
