These are my all time favorite protein bar, 200 calories, only 10 carbs (1 fiber), and 13 grams of protein! They taste like a chocolate cookie and make a great afternoon snack!

I've found them at 7-11($1.99 per bar) and Walmart ($1.18 per bar)... I've had both the vanilla and chocolate and they are delicious!0

Those are definitely one of the better tasting bars I've had.
I also like clif builder chocolate mint bars... though I wouldn't call them a "protein" bar.0 -
After lifting workouts, I have a protein shake with EAS Whey (chocolate or vanilla powder, mixed with milk). For snacks, my favorite bars are the Luna Protein bars (Chocolate Cherry Almond is my favorite flavor).0

Think Thin Protein bars..around 230 cals, 20g protein, 0g sugar, 8g fat. The Brownie crunch kind is pretty tasty0

I've had some protein bars before that make me feel sick ..they were that bad0 -
Quest bars. 180 to 200 calories, 20g protein and lots of fiber.0

I agree, Clif Builder's Protein bars are amazing...I like the Cookie's and Cream and the new Vanilla Almond flavors....I cant tell the different between this bar and a regular candy bar...so amazing.
I would also agree that they aren't really a protein bar so much as a meal replacement.

Thanks, I'll go look !!0 -
I like several of the bars from Pure Protein. I look at the amount of sugar, along with the macros.0

Also a huge fan of the Cliff builder bars. Chocolate mint!0

I found a new protein bar at Sprouts it is by a brand called NuGo... several flavors and really good...
they are all natural 10g protein 190 calories, they have a gluten free.. also they are dairy free and kosher and have vegan and organic as well.
they are usually $1.69 each0 -
Honestly? I have to share food in my house so I buy the Nature Valley PROTEIN selection. I like them, my kid likes them, he works out between classes. I'm not spending much on them because he will eat 2 boxes a week. I'm not a looking to build a whole lot of muscle usually it is just my morning snack after my working out protein shake is depleted and I feel 'empty'. $3.50 at Walmart for a box of 5 bars.
I'm cheap and like I said I'm more of a cardio junkie.0 -
Optimum Nutrition natural vanilla protein powder mixed in almond milk (or regular milk) is very good!
Hubby and I look forward to our post-work protein shake treat.0 -

Maybe if you forced yourself to choke down crap that tastes terrible like the rest of us, you wouldn't have to share.
