I'm trying to find the ultimate protein bar from commerce (I know, I know, I can bake some pretty good myself)

Which is the best tasting / more proteins / less carbs bar according to you? And why do you like it?

    Nutritionally speaking, Quest bars are my favorite (Google them).
    I also like the small sized Supreme Protein bars (in any flavor, all delicious!) and for more of a "meal replacement" I like the Think Thin bars.
  • I am really liking Nature Valley Protein bars, which are mainly peanuts with dark chocolate on the bottom. I don't know that they're the best out there, but they taste awesome, have 10 grams of protein, and I can grab one for a quick breakfast occasionally if I need to, and it keeps me full for a long time.

    The Simply Bar! They're a small Canadian company based out of Toronto so you'll have to check and see where they're available.

    They have 16g protein, 2-4g of fat, under 3g of sugar, at least 4g of fiber, and 160 calories or less. They're also gluten free, vegan, kosher, use non-GMO products, and have less than 10 ingredients. I really like how they taste, too.. they're kinda like rice crispy squares!

    Tried them all. Perfect Foods Bars are the best tasting. You'll find them in the refrigerated section of specialty food stores.

    I like Zone Perfect bars because there are many flavors and they are easy to find (WalMart, Sam's Club, Super Market, Drug Store). The nutrition balance is 30/30/40 - Fat/Protein/Carbs. Affordable too.

    I experienced a Think Thin White Chocolate bar last week---it was almost religious. That thing was DELICIOUS.

    For flavor, Balance Bar in Lemon Meringue. :heart:

    All their flavors are good, but that one is almost orgasmic.

    Homemade from Jamie Eason's recipe (can be found on Youtube) for Lemon Protein Bars.

    I have to agree! They are awesome and taste wonderful.
  • Home made protein bars! http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/get-lean-eat-clean-with-jamie-eason-main-page.htm

    After making my own, I will never ever eat a store bought protein bar... I think homemade is the cleanest way to go.

    Weel, I just tried the Slim Down bars, chocolate brownies, from Jamieson (Canadian brand) and they taste like heaven! Really, the chocolate taste is very similar to a dark chocolate bar, and it's filled with 15g of proteins

    Quest bars are the most nutritionally perfect bars on the market and my go to bar when I don't make my own protein brownies. If I want a meal replacement, or something post-workout, then I go with VPX Zero Impact bars in either German Chocolate or Pumpkin Pie Supreme.

    Luna bars are my favorite. I only eat them once or twice a week though. I only eat the regular line of luna bars, but I know that they now make luna protein bars, but I have not tried them because they contain dairy from the whey protein. I think that luna bars are a great though.

    Luna bar: Each 1.69 oz (48g) LUNA Bar has around 180 calories with 9-10g protein and 3-5g fiber. It is high in calcium, folic acid and iron, a good source of Vitamin D, and rich in antioxidants (vitamins A, C and E). Each bar has 3.5-6g fat and 9-14g sugar depending on the flavor.

    Luna protein bar: Each 1.6 oz (45g) LUNA Protein bar has around 170-190 calories with 12g protein and 3g fiber, along with essential nutrients women need. It is high in calcium and folic acid, and is a good source of vitamin D, iron, fiber and antioxidants (vitamins A, C and E). Each bar has 6-9g fat and 13-15g sugar depending on the flavor.

    I agree with you, the Quest Bars are quite close to the perfection... I only don't like much their consistency... :S
