    I like Clif bars, sometime that's my breakfast with coffe or tea.
    They are 220-240 calories with10g protein. They come in many
    flavors and are filling. Helps to keep the hungry horrors away!
    My problem is keeping my calories down. One day I do great the
    next over just a little, then BAM next day I'm at 1900 cals. But, I love
    this sight it helps to realize what you eat and to cut it out or down to eat healthier.:glasses:

    I stick with the shakes - usually higher protein, less carbs & calories. My fav: Jay Robb Whey. The bars can come packed with calories, carbs, sugar --- read the labels carefully! If you want a meal replacement, that's one thing... but you said "snack" so be CAREFUL!

    I usually stay away from protein bars because most of them use Soy Protein. But If I had to pick one it would be KIND bars. They are Organic and very good.

    I love these bars but they are expensive, I only buy about 10 of them when I go to GNC. Other than that I buy the Clif Builder bars when I go grocery shopping.

    I like Supreme Bar... the caramel pretzel one. Bodybuilding.com...walmart...GNC are places I have found them.

    Another +1 for Quest. They have a ton of fibre, whey protein, and not much sugar. A good protein to calorie ratio. I'm not convinced they're entirely good for you as they do have some funky ingredients (the fibre is some weird thing which also gives the bar much of its sweetness), but to me the good probably outweighs the bad.

    Quest Protein Bars (all flavors)

    Supreme Protein Bars (All flavors except Peanut Butter and Jelly) Especially like the one that has the wafer. BOGO 1/2 off at CVS a lot of times.

    I order them by the box off of Amazon. Saves about $0.60 per bar.
    Love them.

    I like the Atkins bars myself. My faves are the caramel chocolate nut roll (feel like I am eating a Snicker bar) and for breakfast, the Atkins Daybreak Hazelnut bar is awesome, If you like Ferrer Rocher, you will love those! Very low carb and low sugar.

    For protein drinks, my favorite are the EAS drinks for 17g protein and only 100 cals. I blend the strawberry flavor with a cup of frozen sliced strawberries and have a huge frozen smoothie for only 150 cals.

    Quest Bars. :)

    Forgot to mention, they aren't covered in chocolate they are a pressed bar. They are all 170-210 calories.

    have about 18 grams fiber in each one.

    20 grams of WHEY/Milk protien. (no soy or other crap)

    no artificial sweeteners, no oils. They are low in carbs as well.

    Oh... and they taste REALLY good. I like the strawberry cheesecake, coconut cashew, PB&J, and apple pie ones.

    ^^^ I second Quest Strawberry Cheescake bars. I also use carb conscious supreme protiein bars and powercrunch bars.

    Pure Protein bars...each bar contains 18-32g of protein (depending on what size bar you get), and has less than 4g of sugar. Not bad tasting at all


    I agree, these are great! I use them all the time when I'm rushing from class to work. Natural protein from meats, veggies, eggs etc are always best, but as far as protein bars go Pure Protein Bars are great.
