Any suggestions for a good Protein Bar?

[Legend-I-Aint]

I'm looking for something that isn't loaded with tons and tons of carbs. I'm looking at some at the store and they have large amounts of protein and then they show 40+ grams of carbs. Good lord, I might as well eat a snickers bar!

Any good ideas or suggestions would be appreciated.

Believe it or not - Cliff bar makes a Z-Bar for kids - I think around 14 grams of protein and low carbs, and they are organic & taste great...

Cliff bars are the best tasting too

Try any of these:

The top three are in my daily rotation. When I get tired of one I simply switch.

There are several options out there, none note-worthy of a sawastea gold star. I would try to avoid primary ingredients such as Calcium Caseinate, Glycerine, Hydrolyzed Gelatin, Partially Hydrolyzed "oil," Enriched Wheat Flour, Dextrose, Maltodextrin, High Fructose Corn Syrup.

Atkins Advantage bars. 22g carbs, 19g protein.

They are large enuf you can cut them in half.
I get mine from the infamous Wal Mart.

If you buy into the whole "impact" carbs, then they are only 3 grams.

But the most important factor overall is taste - if it doesn't taste good you are not going to continually eat them! Find what you like.

Yeah, taste is the most important

I tend to disagree with that...Although taste is important, the nutritional profile is more important. Granted, if it tastes bad you'll refrain from eating it, but we are not gourmands here. We are after a better body, better health and better living.

sawastea, what about Clif Builder bars? They are partially organic.
