I travel a lot for work (in the car mostly) and rely pretty heavily on bars/MRP's/RTD's. It's hard to find a good bar that has a combo of a good nutrition profile and taste. Most of them are made with crap to make them taste good or they have better ingredients however they taste bad.
I tried the PB fudge flavor Designer Supplements Sustain bar today. I was extremely impressed with the flavor and texture of these bars. They tasted great with no aftertaste and they even passed the water test. The water test is whether you can eat a bar without drinking a bottle of water.
I love that it has simple all natural ingredients.
One thing that I is really cool about them is that each bar comes in it's own little box. I can't tell you how many bars that have been crushed in my briefcase and these boxes are a welcome addition.
Two thumbs up, great job.
I will try the vanilla almond flavor tomorrow.

I have yet to try the almond flavor, but traveling a ton coming up in the next couple weeks I will have to purchase some. The PB was a big plus for sure

Both are all natural, both are quality. Sustain Bar definitley tastes better, IMO, and although the ZI bar has more fiber, I think the raw honey in Sustain bar is a huge benefit.
These are excellent, hopefully you'll think the same.My place in here at bb.com is as a fitness enthusiast and recommendations do not represent medical advice. Please consult your examining physician for all medical concerns.

Great review, especially coming from someone who travels like myself. I've tried and packed many bars in my suitcase over the months, but what am I really getting from them?
I feel DS puts out good quality and these bars will be packed with me on my next trip mid-April. Also looking forward to NO Limits"Never let weakness convince you that you lack strength" -

Where's the vanilla almond review?????!!!
I was thinking of picking these up but can't choose. I'm not really a fan of almonds but people seem to think it tastes better .Activate Xtreme/Sizeon Log:

Here ya go:
I had one of the vanilla almond bars this morning. The flavor is excellent. It's just a hint of almond. What I like about both of these bars is that the flavor is sweet but not too sweet and the flavors are not too strong. Texture was also excellent and moist.
I am undecided as to which one I like better...........................so I am just going to have to eat a few more to decideFree Agent
