Since when did Little Debbies have 30g of protein in them?

i think the reference is the other macros and quality of ingredients. getting protein isnt so important that its vehicle can be anything.

Honestly, I'd rather have a ho-ho and wash it down with a protein shake.....Or just choose my protein bar more wisely.

Yeah, it was a letdown for sure.

Yep just another protein bar without any appealing ingredients

Thats the only thing, other wise, it would be right behind Sustain and VPX, IMHO.

maybe you should learn the difference between the three before you knock soy.

Buckeye muscle is right about the HFCS. I knew about but like an idiot I never checked the ingredients in the promax bars. If anyone really thinks HFCS is good for you then you really need to read. Anyone can find info about HFCS in any nutrition magazine. If you are trying to tone down make sure you avoid HFCS at all costs. The first thing in the ABS Diet from the editor of Mens Health says to avoid HFCS!!

odwalla super protein has 16 grams, and I like the good 'ol power bar, peanut butter flavor.

[Scott~]

My favorite is the Xience bar, but i never eat them anymore. I got a few free ones a long time ago, and they were good.

Best carbohydrate bar is Jay Robb's YAMMIT and protein bar is jaybar. Sweetned with stevia. You can buy it on Bodybuilding.com. Protein powder is the best tasting but it is expensive.

If you have food sensitivities then try our unflavored whey protein Isolate."

Nutritional Information
57g Bar: Calories 250, Protein 2g, Fat 12g, Carbohydrate 35g
Ingredients
Organic almonds, organic figs, organic dates, organic raisins, organic agave syrup, YAMMIT! Energy Nuggets (sweet potato pieces, sodium acid pyrophosphate [from natural sources], and tetrasodium pyrophosphate [from natural sources]).

Why would I want a carbohydrate bar when I could just eat a piece of fruit? The question was protein bar and I don't consider 2g to be a protein bar.

I had a Jay Robb protein bar over the weekend while I was traveling. It was really good, and the ingredients were very good. Only knock 14g of protein is a little low.

The VPX lady at least has class and doesn't critique the physique of others while pushing an inferior product....

true story lol, that was just embarassing

[FINISHSTRONG]

just put the Labrada lean body chocolate chip oatmeal cookie bar in the microwave for 10s and you have the most amazing dessert after a big PWO meal.

[bigpoppas]

Honestly the best Protein bar i've tasted was one by Kellogs. Not as healthy as all the others, but a damn good chocolate IMO

those bars are delicious in the microwave.
great taste to good ingredient profile ratio.
id rate it as the bar below sustain and VPX IMHO.

i wouldnt say its inferior, but just not the best
Im a little disapointed though... When i used to eat the Supreme Protein bars, the chocolate was real chocolate; cocoa butter, cocoa and what not, and now its "chocolate coating''

Inferior implies it's not as good as some others...he didn't call it the worst.
