      @@benchoflemons398 um yeah most of these bars are marketed as meal replacements. They're the only ones that would qualify calorically. If you're eating a bar with that much nutrients... its generally not as a snack. If you want a snack eat a luna bar

    She missed my favorite bar. 190 cal. 22gm carbs, 15 gm fiber, 1g sugar and 21g. Protein - so great meal replacement. Most of her bars are high in fat. This one has 7g and 2.5 sat. fat. It is gluten-free and no artificial flavors. It does have stevia, milk and cashews. It is the Kirkland protein bars from Costco. I pair it up with a piece of fruit or a handful of carrots.

    If your gonna eat a protein bar then your better off eating a quest bar. There bars range from 180 calories to only 200 and all of them have 20 grams of protein with 15 to 18 grams of fiber depending which one your are gonna get. Protein bars are already like candy so might as well eat something that has protein, not pumpkin seeds that only have 10 grams and high in fats(healthy fats though).
    Your better off eating from your kitchen or eat real FOOD NOT BARS!

    Your claims about the Perfect Bar are incorrect. The sugars do not all come from “natural sources”, each Perfect Bar has at least 10 grams of ADDED sugars in them. You also don’t seem to address the added sugars bs in the Kind bars, as well as the 88 acres bars which have brown rice syrup in them... another processed crap sweetener. You have mostly given us “glorified candy bars” as you like to call them. Please do a better job at relaying accurate info to your viewers.

    It's frustrating that I see "the fewer ingredients, the better" coming from a dietitian. Just because most people can't pronounce it doesn't mean it's bad for you. Emulsifiers, preservatives, and added vitamins/minerals are added to create nutritious products with an extended shelf life.

      Less protein is better than bars filled with artificial crap and added sugars. You shouldn’t be solely relying on protein bars for your protein intake anyway. They’re only meant to be an addition to your protein sources, not a replacement.
