    Default Any recommendations on a decent protein bar?

    Has anybody found a decent, tasty protein bar? ......a lot of the ones that I found seem to have a lot of carbs. I bought a relatively low carb Costco brand and they're not very good .....(of course I bought the big box)

    So many are more sugar than a candy bar. I have basically stopped eating them.

    I found a protein bar that as no added sugar. Sweetened naturally with fruit. No preservatives. I think they taste good. I use them when I work out only though. Because fruit is not a low carb food. They are called RX Bar.

    I understand -I’ve been looking for a couple weeks just to have something in case of emergencies that I keep in my purse. I’ve kind of found the same- not really that healthy!

    I did use them a bit in the beginning to keep in my purse and have a bite when hunger would strike. In the beginning I really needed them. I like the Atkins Peanut Butter Chocolate. Here is the nutrition below in the link. I would buy them at the grocery store or Walmart.
