Protein bars

Post by Gypsiyee »

I'm looking for a protein bar that's low in sugar and doesn't taste like crap

I really like the snickers ones, but those are loaded in sugar.. I like the Pure Protein "ok" because there's 20g of protein in them, but the aftertaste on them isn't too good. A coworker had some 30g protein, but those didn't taste so hot either

I'm sure there's a brand that's a happy medium, I just need to find it

well i used this recipe for a while..it's alright..doesn't really coagulate as well as the ones you buy from the stores but the stats are better than the sugar loaded ones. i used a tiny bit of honey to stick it.. approx a teaspoon. tastes good and wrapping it up is alright tho sticky.

2 tbs. natty pb(microwaved a bit, to soften)
3 scoops whey
1/2 cup oats
little over 1/4 cup water

but..in terms of purchasing protein bars..sorry can't help you there. ;(

I thought this thread was about blowjobs.

Clif Bars are ownage snacks.

Might be too much sugar for you, however.

I think I am going to the grocery store now to pick up some of the peanut butter ones.
