protein bars - good and bad

I just tried a gatorade protein bar and had some mild dumping.  I should have known better, but the bar was free and I was weak.  There are 10g protein, 16g sugar, and 39g total carb.  You can get the same 10g protien from a South Beach cereal bar, and they only have 7g sugar and 15g total carb.  I eat those often.  Yesterday I tried the Power Crunch bar, and it was good.  14g protein, 5g sugar, 10g total carb and it tastes good.

Power Crunch is my fave but I have to watch it....if they are in the house I wanna eat 'em all at once!!

I LOVE Power Crunch bars. I was sooo  jealous of those who won whole boxes at RYD.

I agree Power Crunch bars are the bomb.  I occassionally eat a Fiber One bar, although I can only eat the oatmeal one without getting sick.  Helps with any potty issues, so that's an added plus.

I loved Power Crunch bars right after surgery.  Then one day I dumped so bad on one that I haven't been able to get the nerve to even try it again.  Now I like the Supreme Protein bars.  There are 15g of protein, 2 gram of sugar and 17 carbs in the small bars.  I get them at The Vitamin Shoppe.  They taste like candy bars.

I like the luna smores too - I also eat cliff Z bars - they are not really high protien but the carbs are resonable and they will hold my blood sugar up -  a major issue for me - plus they are about half to one quarter of the price of reg protien bars - 24 bars for $12 or so at costco
