Hello everyone!
I was wondering if anyone had any suggestions on a dairy free protein bar! Can’t seem to find one! Thanks!

    Check out No Cow bars--I like mint chocolate and lemon meringue the best. They have no dairy, gluten, or soy. One bar is 170 cal, 2.5 grams of fat, 22 grams of protein and 27 grams of carbs, with 19 grams of fiber.

    They're a little pricey, but I love Vega bars (their sea salt dark chocolate ones are sooooo good). 100% vegan (and I believe GF!)

    Clif Builder Bars are the best dairy-free bar that I've tried so far.

    These are disgusting in my opinion. I wanted to like them so badly because they have the perfect macros, but the taste made me gag. I cannot do pea protein.

    I have tried pretty much every single vegan bar out there in search of a good one and there is nothing that is as good as non vegan ones with the same macros. (most of the good ones have less protein or the calories are way higher) But I have found the best to be in order...

    -Higher calorie but probar base chocolate chip cookie dough, chocolate bliss, and chocolate pb
    -Rxbar (not vegan but dairy free)
    -Raw rev cookie dough and chocolate brownie (they are like eating peanut butter cookie dough with melted chocolate chips, I dont know how they keep the chocolate chips so soft at room temp lol I just hate how small they are)
    -Clif builder bars (LOVE the chocolate hazelnut)
    -Nugo (I love the chocolate chip, chocolate pb, and my top favorite is sea salt pretzel)
    -Orgain cookie dough

    I will eat almost anything once I've bought it, but when I tried No Cow I had to throw it out. I think it was blueberry flavor. I don't mind other pea protein products, but I thought No Cow was disgusting.

    Same! I usually always finish bars when I open them even if not that good but I had to throw out after a bite and just thinking about the taste and texture makes me nauseous now lol.

    The peanut butter one is the best. :heart: Although, if you're asking because your allergic, some of the builders bars have a may contain on milk.

    Another vote for the probar base chocolate chip cookie dough. Clif builder bars are ok but I like the probars better, not as cloyingly sweet as clif.

    Blueberry is the WORST!!!!! I ordered a sample pack of these to start and tossed the blueberry and the raspberry both after a couple of bites.

    GoMacro bars are my favorites. I think they're all vegan, but they've only ever carried three flavors near me so I'm not sure. Vega bars are also great. So long as you don't have an issue with eggs or nuts, Rx bars are also great. Thinkthin also now has two flavors of plant protein based bars and I really like them. Builder's bars are dairy free, but they're also pretty darn sugary (I think it's around 22 grams for my preferred flavor), so if that's something you're trying to watch, best steer clear.

    GoMacro are about $2.50 each near me. Rx bars range between 1.50 and 2.50. Thinkthin is the cheapest per bar, I think about $1.75, but their plant based bars aren't as easy to find as their regular bars. I don't remember for Vega, but I think it's reasonable. Builder's are usually really affordable as well.

    I really like Bhu Fit's apple chunk and cinnamon protein bars, but they only have 12g of protein for 180 calories, so the calories per g of protein are a little higher than i'd like. Note that not all of bhu fit's flavor line is vegan, but this one is.

    A really good one I have found is Pegan Bars, particularly the chocolate lava flavor. They are high protein, low carb, and really pretty darn good.

    Ive tried these and they were just okay. Worth trying because even though I didn’t really like them, I’ve read a lot of other people seem to like them. The only one I thought was good was the sunflower butter one. They weren’t as bad as the no cow bars and actually palatable lol.

    The calories per g of protein seems great. I'll give them a try, although I'm expecting to not be impressed by the taste :neutral:

    Vega One bars are delicious, vegan, and also can be used as a meal replacement

    Well, it's not a snickers bar, but I actually like them. I'm on my second box.

    Another vote for Clif Builder. The chocolate hazelnut and chocolate peanut butter are my favorites. The calorie per gram of protein ratio isn't amazing--280 calories for 20 grams of protein--but it's not terrible either.

    I also like the Pro Bar Base cookie dough, which has a similar macro profile as Clif Builder, but it seems to be a far more expensive bar...at least where I've found it. I can get Builder bars on Amazon $14 for a dozen, but Pro Bars cost about twice that.

    Just had the dairy free No Cow peanut butter chocolate chip protein bar and it was delicious.

    Got some from Aldi a while back called pulsin I think. They are smaller size than standard to be cheaper I guess but taste alright
