whats your favorite protein bar and why?

[Venchka]

My favorite protein bar is bacon jerky and beef jerky, in that order.

Have you also tried KRAVE turkey and pork jerky? Good stuff!

Nature Valley 10 gram protein bars are quite good, or at least my pallet likes them 100% better than Clif Builders.

I can agree on the Builders, a little too power-barry for me.

Bobo bars.

Loaded question! Nutritional bars(not candy bars), 'protein' bars, some 'candy' bars, or however you wish to label all get thrown in together and often used interchangeably making the terms a mess to figure out. How someone like a body builder, or someone influenced by that activity, defines a protein bar, usually a chemistry like experiment super high in protein content, is going to be different than someone else like Shae who considers 6 gm of protein in their choice of Bobo's bar to be a "protein bar." As a bar aficionado in my own opinion a "nutritional" bar, 'protein' bar, 'fruit' bar, etc has to be considered beyond any one ingredient or nutrient. Most bars, of the 30 or so brands I find acceptable for regular consumption at least, aren't identified primarily as 'protein bars' although some of them do contain upwards of 15 gm protein in a 3 oz or less 'bar.'

Snickers or Baby Ruth.

On my section hike in VT this summer I found out the hard way that Paydays don't have chocolate in them...

Tanka bars. Hands down.

There's my point in action - focusing in on sugar, empty calories, and utmost convenience.

The operative word was "favorite"

Epic Bison Bar

The Bison Bacon bar delivers a substantial serving of our two most favorite meats; 100% grass fed buffalo brilliantly combined with humanely certified uncured bacon!

Louie's on 5th and main

My favorite comes from one of those home party companies that overcharges a bit, but I love them!

Isagenix IsaLean Peanut Butter/Chocolate Crunch

Why? The flavor. The flavor doesn't have even the least bit of a hint of hydrocarbon processed chemicals. And it does keep you satiated, as anything with significant enough protein will do.

Oh look, you can get them on Amazon now! Sweet!

Cliff bars. They have more of a granola bar texture. Macadamia flavor is good as well as the mint chocolate

Quest brand ... 30 grams per bar. Packs in more protein per ounce than the normal one. Until recently, it could only be found in Bariatric clinics. It has now made its way into Walmart as a general purpose high protein bar!

... and Larabars.
For protein I make my own dry mixture of Nido, instant breakfast, coffee and protein and add water.
This is my protein of choice:

Yes, i saw that you mentioned it earlier and looked it up.. i do much much better with a higher ratio of protein, and thought anout added that to my "collection". I also make my own granola st times.. heavy on several different kinds of nuts and seed, with oats, holden raisins, craisins, shredded coconut... whatever sounds good..

What was your final decision?
The Pea Protein is tasteless, has no sweeteners and dissolves with no trace. 20 grams of powder and 15 grams of protein. 75%.

Thought Nido was powered whole milk.
