What is the Best Protein Bar?

[MMAGuy80]

Just wanted to get everyone's opinion on what the best protein bar on the market is. I clipped 2 coupons yesterday for a "Buy 1, Get 1 Free" for some MetRx protein bar and was wondering if they are good.

If its free, of course it's good.

MetRx is good. Just read the nutritional info and go from there

i know these aren't great for post-workout, but i eat one everyday and drink a rippedforce on the way to the gym, the bar, "promax". I like them cuz they're all natural, 20 protein, 26 carbs, just enough energy to do a 2 hour workout along with that rippedforce which is 90 calos and enough caffeine, etc..total i think i'm consuming about 340 calories just before i get to the gym..

Most protein bars are glorified candy bars with some protein in them.

Read the ingredients, full of saturated and trans fats, corn syrup, inverted glucose........................................

Even Snickers is doing one now.

I would consider them to be a cheat food, rather than a healthy part of a BBing diet.

If I am cheating with candy/choc bar, I would rather have a proper chocolate bar, like Lindt or Green and Black, 75% cocoa solids.

There are about 2 exceptions I know of, but in general, I would call them CRAP.

Personally, I avoid them like the plague.

Ever since I started making my own (and protein pudding) I haven't eaten a protein bar since. And don't miss the diarrhea causing things either.
