Go to your local GNC and try a Detour Bar.

Quite honestly, I think protein bars are nothing but weight loss surgery candy. They trigger a deeper urge for chocolate and other candy, in me personally. For a while I could NOT stay away from them...So be careful! Eating protein from REAL foods is always your best form of protein...If you can handle a protein bar, you can handle healthy real food...With that said, I love "Oh Yeah Wafers" Vanilla Creme, my fav...They are not protein bars, but are light crispy, crunchy, creamy covered cookie wafer thingies! LOL They melt, so do not leave in the car! I was buying them by the case at one point. They were addictive and I had to give them up totally. I only by protein bars when I am running on a tight schedule and may not have time for a meal...I then carry a protein bar around in my purse on those rare occasions, because again, they are a HUGE trigger for chocolate/dessert food for me...and they do go totally against my own desire to eat healthy food that still resembles a natural form of food....Protein bars are as far from natural and processed as processed gets! So beware! They are addictive if you were one who likes sweets and cannot stop once you start! But one good thing is most do not taste all that great anyway...My Nut told us from the beginning (6 years ago)to stay away from them completely...I get that now...
