The Simply Bar @ Costco?
Yeah what Katie said... I am lucky if I can get them on sale at Zerhs for $2 each.

you don't have to love them...just tolerate them. ..
Something you love you may be tempted to eat even if your not hungry, whereas something you can eat but not necessarily love you will only eat if you have to

ive tried all the simply bars i get them from the bulk barn i think they are like $2-$3 each which is expensive and they taste like crap lol they kinda taste like a rice cake to me.. the only one i can not gage on is the peanutbutter one. i usually stick to the pure protien ones i have had the luna bars but they are nutrient supplement not protien bars..

I was using the Pure Protein too, but they are starting to taste too sweet lately and some of the flavours upset my stomach - maybe too many sugar alcohols. I really like the coconut lemon Simply Bar, the rice cake kinda taste is a welcome change ;) I'll check Bulk Barn and see if they have them cheaper, thanks!
I find most bars too sweet too or they don't have a good protein to calorie ratio. I try to use the 1 gram of protein to 10 calories or less rule.
And I have tried the quest bars (like 4 or 5 different types) and found them disgusting. Everyone is different tho.
