I like the low GI Think Thin protein bars. They are Gluten Free and don't give me any GI troubles afterwards.1

Pure Protein Chocolate Peanut Caramel. Have one for breakfast most weekday mornings.2
-
I second Pure Protein.3

Robert Irvine sells some called Fit Crunch. The peanut butter and chocolate ones are the best of any brand I've tried so far.0

I've been through several brands over the years, Pure Protein, Detour, Quest, whatever that stuff is that Kirkland started putting out, but my new favorite is Chef Robert Irvine's Fit Crunch0

I'm in Australia so dont have the variety you guys have. But my faves are:
Quest Double chocolate chunk
Myprotein- My bar zero
Both taste a hundred times better and have a nicer consistency if microwaved for 12 seconds. But you could leave yours sitting on the dashboard of your car and get get the same result0 -
for me, the best bar is Grenade Carb Killa. They are amazing, kind of like a cookie with a caramel layer wrapped in white chocolate, peanut butter, or chocolate. They're just getting popular here in the US, as they are a product of the Netherlands I believe..try them out, delicious! https://www.grenade.com/us/grenade-carb-killa1

The perfect bars have just over 300 calories and around 16 grams of protein. These all have more sugar that I'd like, but I'm not a fan of fake sugar.
I can never find these0 -
I enjoy a ONE bar on occasion when I'm short on time. My favorite is peanut butter pie and second runner up is blueberry cobbler0

Pure Protein for me. About $1.50 per bar at the Kroger, but at Target you can get a box of 12 for about $12 (a buck a bar) so cheaper. I eat one every other day.1

I love Quest bats; a bit dear but tasty. I've heard a lot positive about Costco's Kirkland protein bars, but they still don't carry them here in UK Costco.0

I have tried Quest Bars several times and I am just not a fan. The texture is a little dense and chewy for me. Same with the Kirkland brand bars. Maybe it's because I have braces, but I find them both difficult to chew. My go-to favorites are Think Thin Brownie Crunch and Pure Protein Deluxe Chocolate because I prefer the texture.1

Clif bars!! White Chocolate Macadamia, Oatmeal raisin walnut, Blueberry crisp, Crunchy peanutbutter, chocolate chip. Those are my faves. I have one in the morning before breakfast when I take my son to preschool . Thats when I do my walks gor a good hour or more. So I slways have some in the stroller and I eat aftet i drop him off and continue walking pushing my other toddler..they are fast ,easy ,yummy and hold me over till my breakfast smoothie. Usually about 230 cals to 260. I buy the box of 6 for around $4.49 or so at my grocery store WINco.0

Not a protein bar, but the basic Clif bars are $1-$1.20 per 250-270 calorie bar (I usually have half with either yogurt or peanut butter). They do have added protein, but not as much as a 'protein bar'.. but are a little closer to a granola bar in taste and texture rather than a paste-like texture. They also have much more fiber than almost all protein bars. And way cheaper.
Special K makes a Fiber 1 bar with added protein (you can find them near the granola bars rather than the protein bar section... with pricing closer to name brand granola bars rather than the $2+ pricing of protein bars). Kind of a candy bar with lots of nuts in taste/texture.
I think the think thin bars were a bit cheaper than most protein bars last I checked. . Closer to a wafer cookie in texture.0 -
And Jif makes 8-packs of individual cups of peanut butter that are easy to stash in a bag with the bars. I like to dip the bars in the peanut butter (1/2 bar + 1/2 PB is comparable in calories to 1 bar) if I'm a bit low on fat for the day.0

Quest Cookie Dough and Mint Chocolate Chunk! Pure Protein Salted Caramel is really good too?1
-
Quest: White Chocolate Raspberry, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, & Cookies & Cream
OhYeah: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough with the chocolate coating & the one without is good
Mybar: Confetti Cake
Dymatize: Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough & Peanut Butter (tasted like fudge) & found these for a short time at Big Lots for $0.70 a bar.
The current brand I've been eating everyday for breakfast is Power Bar (it has more sugar than most of the other protein bars on the market, but price wise it's cheap at the Grocery Outlet).
I've been getting boxes anywhere from $1.75-$4.99 for around 6-15 bars depending on the price.
The Cookies & Cream, Vanilla, & Peanut Butter Caramel are solid purchases.0 -
I go for the Gatorade whey protein bars.0

I am not a protein bar person, but I am in emergency management. So I am always looking for something that is high in protein and easy to put in emergency kits.
I found these at an event...they are really good. We showed them at an event and even kids came back for second helpings.
