These things taste great and have god-tier macro ratios. But

These things taste great and have god-tier macro ratios.

But what's the catch?
>>
The catch is enough posts are made about them that this should be considered shilling.
>>
>>37339977
It's expensive as fuck.
>>
I have a box of those, they taste like shit. They taste like someone left a tube of caulk out with the cap off and it hardened.

Fake nutrition label(they got sued, spent tens of millions to bury the issue).

Also very overpriced compared to real, tasty, nutritious food.

>went to a convention full of merchandiser
>brought back a bag of swag including tons of these "healthier" snacks

They're called Betty Lous and the line of snacks were all good, aside from the chocolate, greens bar which isn't my thing but I'm sure some people will like it.

>>37339984
$5.59 for 5 bars is expensive?
>>
>>37340746
They're 4€ a piece here in Europe.
>>
fucking surcalose.
>>
Sucralose, amino spiking, soy, engineered food...

I could go on, but the point is they are garbage tier 'food'. Nutrition is a bit more complex than a few numbers on a label. Just eat real food.

The price.
>>
>>37339977
expensive and the sugar substitute they use can cause shits, otherwise they are pretty tasty and have good macros
>>
>>37339977
You spend your time on the internet seaching for the best sources of PROTEIN and shilling out on QUEST BARS, while CHAD eats PIZZA.
>>
>>37339977
The catch is they don't do shit. The extra chicken breast is 10x more beneficial for you
>>
>>37342987
Can anyone confirm if these taste good or nah?
>>
>>37343074
Yeah they're good.
I mean it's not snickers, but it's a nice treat.
Healthier and cheaper than prepackaged stuff.
They can be a gooey sticky mess though.

These things taste like straight dog shit and feel like chewing play doh that was left out overnight.

Also I get crazy allergic reactions to that weird chemical sweetener they use.
>>
>>37339977
The catch is they are too sweet and they don't taste great.
>>
Think Thin bars are 10x better. 200 - 250 calories / 20g of protein and almost no carbs.
>>
>>37344205
>shit genetics
>>
>taste great
I don't know, they remind me most of the food rations you'll find in lifeboats, just a lot sweeter (Though I'd guess the Quest bars have better macros).

>what's the catch
Probably just the price, which really isn't that bad.
>>
>>37344284
>$20 for 10 bars
That's the problem with all of these is they're expensive as hell, whey+milk is so much cheaper.
>>
>>37339977
>buy a 12pk for $4.99 at ghetto discount grocery store

hope they stay expensive, so the unsold surplus can be sold elsewhere at a more affordable price.
>>
>>37344363
Yea you're absolutely right, just you get tired of milk sometimes. Skim milk is 10 calories /1 g of protein and dirt cheap. But fuck if it doesn't cause bloating after drinking half of that mother fucker.
>>
>>37344396
That's my problem too, I love milk but can't drink it before a workout or ill feel like Ill throw up. I like those protein bars but I end up eating two before a workout or for a quick lunch if I'm out somewhere. I end up going through those packs so quickly that 10 bars will probably only last 3-4 days tops and that shit gets expensive spending nearly $40 a week on bars.
