Are there any protein bars that are actually good for you. Been enjoying the Smore's pure protein bars, but I fell like the ingredient list is way too long and they taste way too good to really be nutritious

Candy bars + protein

What does /fit/ think of Detour Simple (tm)? I usually just get one for work on long shifts.

Quest bars.
>>
>>36830476
>>36830870

Except they taste like literal dirt.
>>
people here like quest and when I tried one I have to agree. tastes fine, but without nearly all the sugar you get in other bars
>>
>>36830890
Can't you only buy them one by one and aren't they also super expensive?
>>
>>36830328
I probably eat 1-2 of the peanut butter pure protein bars a day. I'm bulking so I don't give a fuck about the sugar or whatever is in the pure protein bars. Their macros are pretty damn good and they taste awesome. They are also much cheaper than quest bars. Good enough for me.

Bumping to find out more about what /fit/ thinks of the pure protein bars.

>>36830878

The regular chocolate chip cookie dough tastes better than anything else I've tried (admittedly not that many others, only low carb bars). They have like a million other flavors though, most of them are pretty good.
>>
>>36831253

You can order boxes from their website and supposedly they sell them at the bulk stores (Sam's, Costco, HEB, others probably in other states) but you just pay single bar cost times however many are in a box, so yeah they're pretty expensive

THANK YOU. Been trying to remember the name of this shit for awhile, been bugging me.

>>36830328
yes, there are. it's called "steak"

Want healthy quick protein snack? Buy some damn nuts.

This.

Go eat a chocolate bar then, he asked healthiest not tastiest.

>>36830890
Quest bars are the best tasting, but they are like $1 more per bar than Pure Protein. (not a poorfag just a cheapfag)
>Quest S'more Bar
>Calories=180
>Fat=8g
>Carb=23g
>Fiber=13g
>Sugar=1g
>Protein=20g

>Pure Protein Chewy Chocolate Chip
>Calories=200
>Fat=5g
>Carb=18g
>Fiber=2g
>Sugar=3g
>Protein=20g

Not a huge difference, except fiber, and for a dollar less per bar I'll take the Pure Protein. Also, check Amazon for some decent bulk deals on both brands
>>
>>36831865

How does it have more calories with less fat and less carbs but the same protein?
>>
>>36830328
I get Pure Protein bars also because they're at Publix when I shop.

Unlike you, I don't have a mental illness, and can fathom that they can taste good and provide good protein with low calories.

I'm using the PHD peanut butter flapjacks for post TKD training. Ok taste, I may try Quest bars in the future but they're kinda pricey.

Good question. I have no idea. I just typed what the packages say

>tfw stupid severe cashew allergy

Every fucking protein bar is processed in the same facility as tree nuts.

Almost died the last time I ate a protein bar, but to be fair, there were ground cashews in the ingredients and I didn't look. All the other flavors of the brand were cashew free.

These taste like ass but they're pretty good

I've been buying these because I'm too lazy to make my own and they're fucking delicious.

I'll have one after lifting alongside a bottle of chocolate milk.

>>36832011
What's wrong with nuts? They're full of brotons and good fats. Nuts are fucking awesome (bulking) food.
>>
>>36832111

That must suck bro, cashews are delicious
>>
>>36832215
Low fat, high carb and high-moderate protein master race.
>>36832294
I know. I remember gobbling down an entire tin when I was little, and then being bolted to the ER.
But they're evil nuts of death to me.

Anyone know of some nut free brands?
Or am I just going to have to make shitty homemade ones for long car trips?
>>
>>36830328
Cliff builder bars are my favorite, they are also pretty affordable if you buy them at costco like a dollar per bar.
>>
>>36832365
>cliff bars
enjoy your diabetes

>>36832348

I will dedicate my life to creating synthetic allergen-free cashews for you
