Protein bar favorites?
I have loved the Power Crunch bars, but recently tried something new... which has become my all time favorite. They are the "Strive" Bars and can be found on Susan Maria's site. Her description of them is as follows:
"Strive Crunch Bars are excellent; more like a crunchy chewy 'Rice Krispy' treat than a gooey sweet candy bar. These bars taste great, have a satisfying chew texture and contain 22 grams of high-quality protein, yet contain just 3 carbs, and are completely sugar free. Perfect portable protein. I rely on these bars and so will you. I always come back to these bars... reliable protein.
Strive Nutrition: Total Calories 200,Calories From Fat 80,Total Fat 9g, Saturated Fat 5g, Cholesterol 0, Sodium 320mg, Net Carbohydrates 3g Dietary Fiber 0, Sugar 0g, Protein 20g
Ingredients: Crunchy Banana Split. Protein Blend- soy protein nuggets (isolated soy protein, rice flour, malt, salt), calcium caseinate, whey protein isolate, maltitol, chocolate coating- maltitol, fractionated palm kernel oil, cocoa (processed with alkali), monoglycerides, soy lecithin, fructooligosaccharides (dietary fiber), soy extract, potato starch, vanilla, marshmallow nuggets- lactitol, polydextrose."
At any rate, I hope this helps.... I am totally hooked on the Crunchy Banana Split bars, they are GREAT!!! And, I just ordered another box of 24 myself.
Thanks & have a great day!

Can I ask if you have the website address for Susan Maria? Ive never heard anyone talk about this bar before from her website - I am definitely interested!
Thank you to all who have given me their input - Im hungry just thinking about these protein bars! LOL
Yes... I'm sorry, I should have included it to begin with! At any rate, she has a great site with lots of suggestions, recipes, support and, of course, products to try. It is:
