    My favorite protein bars are Thinkthin not necessarily for the taste (they're not like a candy bar) but they do taste good and keep me full between meals,I just didn't mention them cuz again they're not very treat like

    Quest is my go-to protein bar. I microwave them for 20 seconds and that really brings out the flavor. I love most of the chocolate and peanut butter ones. Birthday cake and waffle are also super tasty. Just don't nuke the waffle one to long or your syrup will run out of the bar. :D

    I personally don't think any protein bar I tried compares to actual candy bars, but I found BSN Protein Crisp bars to be more acceptable than others.

    All Quest products are completely vile imo. FitCrunch chocolate peanut butter bars are a lot like candy to me- I haven't tried any of the other flavors but it's layered like a candy bar with a biscuit, peanut butter, etc covered in chocolate.

    My boyfriend and I love the Builder's Protein bars; they have a really tasty mint chocolate one and a vanilla one I love. They can have a bit of a grainy mouth feel, but they fill me up and are a great between meals snack if I'm lower on calories for the day. I also really like the Balance bars, specifically the mint chocolate one! (If you can't tell, I'm a mint chocolate fan.)

    I love the Think Thin brownie crunch bars. Pure Protein are really good too.

    Most candy bar like to me is Fit Crunch. Only 190 calories. Similar to Snickers bar.
  • I agree with some of the others, the Fit Crunch bars are the best I've ever had (I enjoy the chocolate peanut butter flavor)! They make it seem as if I'm having a treat :smile: Next to them, my go to is usually the Pure Protein bars.

    Also voting for Fit Crunch. esp since they came out with the smaller 190 calorie bars.

    I'm a pretty big fan of Oatmega bars. They have a chocolate fudge brownie that is really good and a chocolate coconut that I like. However, my favorites are the vanilla almond, blueberry, and white chocolate raspberry. I think there is 14-15 gr of protein and about 180 calories.

    Kirkland (Costco) has Chocolate Brownie and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough flavored bars that I like. They also have boxes with Cinnamon Roll and Peanut Butter Chunks bars that are decent too.

    I like these because they taste good, have low sugar, and a lot of fiber.

    I like these, too. They are very similar to Quest bars. I bought a box of each combo pack this weekend, in fact. Chocolate Brownie is on deck today.

    I really appreciate all y'all's input here. Reading this thread helped me make a better choice today at the gas station. This was my treat instead of a candy bar and it was rather good.

    I just wanted to second this recommendation. I found out about these bars from a post on the WW forums and I love these bars! Now my husband and son love them, too. We only buy the cookie dough and brownie ones so I’m not sure of the other two. They’re just the right amount of sweet without being TOO sweet.

    ETA: It did take me a bit to get used to the texture because I wasn’t used to protein bars but once I got used to it, I had no issues.

    too bad you weren't home. Microwave for 30s, and a new world will open...
