Doing OMA (one meal a day) my protein intake was not high enough. I've lost over 100lbs but I struggled with building muscle. I found her reviews by Googling are pure protein bars a good source of protein, and I haven't really found a bad review. My only concern is I'm afraid of the old saying if it sounds (taste) to good to be true it probably is. I've tried, just about all of them and I think they're the best tasting protein bars Ive tried. I do not agree with her opinion on the pure protein bars. The manufacturer (Canadian) suggests that you drink a glass of water when you eat one and my guess is that it helps you digest the bar.ĭo I think these are the best choice?

These are chewy, like a Snickers Bar (but without the caramel or peanuts). Would I eat this on a regular basis? Probably not, but I would stuff it in my purse for a trip. It is remarkably like a chocolate, peanut butter candy bar. I liked the Chocolate Peanut Butter Pure Protein bar the most of all of the flavors. It was cloyingly sweet and odd in texture. If I had tried this one first, I would never have bought another one. This Chocolate Chip Pure Protein bar tasted chalky and terrible. I thought that this bar did taste like chocolate and it surprised me that there was no yucky sucralose after taste. Perhaps there wasn’t enough to trigger a response. I did not have a problem with these (and I do have a problem with sugar alcohols). Excessive consumption may have a laxative effect.

The ingredients for the Chocolate Deluxe are: They do remind of the Built Bar because they are a bit of a chemical experiment to get you a product that looks and tastes like a candy bar. You can buy ONE and see if you like it (except if you buy them at Costco). The latest bar is Pure Protein and I include it because unlike the Built Bar, you can find it in CVS, Walgreens, Target, and Costco. There are so many on the market! I have taken a look at Built Bar Review and thinkThin Protein Bars and many others that I did not feature.
