Anyone tried the new protein bars from Celebrate? I just got an email about them today. They have four flavors - caramel peanut, chocolate peanut, cinnamon pecan and lemon coconut, I think. I'm really interested in the lemon coconut. I emailed them to see if I can get a sample. They seem kinda costly but have 16 grams of protein and are low in sugar and might be a good option.

mmmmm Lemon Coconut - now that sounds delish. I will have to look into that. Perfect flavor for summer.

Matter of fact, I just tried the Peanut Butter and Chocolate one the other day. I was at my local fitness center looking over the protein bars for a protein snack and came across the Simply Bars. There was the above and the Lemon Coconut one. Yes, they are quite pricey - $3.00 for a single bar. What drew me to them was the low sugar content and at least 16g of protein. I thought, what the heck - might as well try it.

The taste was amazing - no artifical aftertaste, pretty yummy. They are advertised as only having 9 ingredients, natural, vegan, kosher, milk and gluten free and Low Glycemic. Soy Protein Isolate is the protein source. Before I knew it, I had eaten the whole bar. I am only 9 weeks out from surgery and was worried at first that I overdid it - but I was plesantly surprised to find I did not experience any distress or heavy feeling in my pouch. I decided I wanted to seek out more of these bars and did some research. They cost $30.00 for a case of 15 - eek! They do offer a sample pack of 10 mixed bars for $22.00 to try the diffrent flavors.

They are using inulin which is a natural fiber and sweetener. They are worth a try to me and I just ordered a box of the lemon coconut. With shipping they are costing me about four dollars a bar, so I will not order again unless they are really good.

Yeah, that's more than I would spend on a regular basis even if they are really good. But I might get them sometimes if they are really yummy.

For seven bars comes to $3.61 per bar. Will let you know if they are worth it. If they are delicious, filling and I can use as a small meal, then I will consider ordering again.
