Protein Bars

What protein bars do you all like?  I was looking for one high in protein and low in sugar (& sugar alcohols) tonight and came home empty handed.  Any suggestions?
Thanks,
Sara

Sara,

It can be tough to find protein bars that are low in sugar.  I like La Brada Rockin' Roll bars (like a Payday candy bar), Pure Protein, Think Thin, and Supreme bars.  I've recently tried (and like) Doctor's CarbRite Diet bars (they have fruit flavors rather than candy bar-type flavors) and Oh Yeah Good Grab bars.  Atkins bars are good too.  I buy the different bars at Walgreens, Giant, GNC, the Vitamin Shoppe, and online. 

Good luck finding bars you like!  It can  be tough!

Where do you get these? La Brada Rockin' Roll bars They sound yummy!

I ordered them from netrition.  I know other websites have them, and I think Barix sells them.  They really are yummy.  They're the only bars I liked after surgery.  (Fortunately, my tastes have changed again, so I like other bars now, too.)

OK thanks! I'll grab some next time I place an order.

Sara,
I like the supreme bars they are carb conscious and under 2gm of sugar. You can find them at GNC and like Julia stated I like the Rock N' Roll bars but my surgeon told me to stay away from protein bars as they mimick candy bars. I keep one in my bag since I now suffer from hypoglycemia and when that happens I need something that is sweet and has carbs in them. I hope this helps you.

Not surprisingly, I agree with Julia and Shilpa... the Supreme bars are really good.  The Labrada Rock N Roll bars are very good, but keep an eye on the nutrients, as half a bar is usually the serving that's right for "us".

The nutritionist at Barix pointed out to me that Rock N Roll bars are among the highest in fat, as well.

I haven't seen anyone else list them yet, but, I've been using the Oh Yeah! wafers/bars.  ot real high in protein (14g) but not bad (and better then a shake to me).  2g sugars, 8g carbs.

I've been picking up bars wherever I see them to try and these are the least objectionable so far :-)  I've been doing _alot_ of air travel lately and they've been great for taking along to snack in airports or on the plane.

I like the Atkins bars - most of them are very low in sugar and carbs, they're not huge and most of them really don't taste like candybars so you're not inclined to over-indulge in them. I keep some in my desk at work and in a jar at home, mostly for those times when I'm out shopping or know I won't be able to grab something decent to eat - example - my mother is in the hospital so I go right there from work, which means I miss dinner, so I throw a protein bar and a piece of fruit in my purse and have that while she's eating her dinner. Most of them have at least 10 grams of protein, some more, a few less - the ones with the lesser protein tend to be more like a candy bar so I don't get them very often.

I like the Rock n Roll bars too but they're huge...and tough to eat sometimes.
