What meal supplement/nutritional bar do you like?

I've tried a couple of the meal replacement or nutritional bars out there, like Quest and Promax. They either taste like monkey dung or they're so high in fat or sugar I might as well eat a couple Snickers bars--hopefully not after deep frying them.

What nutritional bar do you like? Why do you like it?

The only two bars I eat are Quest (natural line) protein bars (Cinnamon Roll and Coconut Cashew) and VPX Zero Impact bars (German Chocolate and Pumpkin Pie).

I like Quest because they are what they are - no junk, high-protein, low-sugar bars specifically designed for athletic individuals interested in a "clean" bar. There's no soy or cheap, filler protein, glycerin, high amounts of sugar or ingredients I do not know of and/or consider unhealthy. I've tried all the bars from both product lines and some are thicker and chewier than others. For instance, both Cinnamon Roll and Coconut Cashew are rather soft and taste really great. The Apple Pie bar, on the other hand, is considerably harder. However, when I heat up the "harder" bars in the microwave for a few seconds, they became really soft. But I eat these when I just want protein, healthy fats, and fiber to keep me full.

VPX Zero Impact bars are meal replacement bars with higher calories and macro amounts. They're closer to brownies than bars, in my opinion. Both the German Chocolate and Pumpkin Pie are ridiculously good. The ingredient list is far longer than that of the Quest bars, but for the most part, the ingredients are rather high quality.
