I also try to avoid the bars with too many carbs. I have settled on the
EAS Advantage Apple Cinnamon or Lemon Cheesecake, Carb Solutions Chocolate
Toffe Hazelnut, or ANY Atkins Advantage low carb bars EXCEPT the fruity
flavored ones - blech!

I've got to agree with the others here and say that EAS AdvantEdge Carb
Control bars are the best out there as far as the grams of protein, low
carbs, and decent taste. You may find other bars taste somewhat better,
but read the labels and see the levels of carbs, fat, and calories go much
higher than the EAS ones. I like the Blueberry and Apple Cinnamon flavors.

I have tried a lot of bars and my very favorite (tastes like a real candy
bar) is The Atkins Advantage bar in Pralines and Cream...Try it...

Everyone has such different taste, what one person likes, others hate (I
for one can't stand those Detour bars, other people swear by them) My
personal pick is the Pure Protein. 170 cal, 21g protein, 2g sugar, 2-3g
carb (depending on the flavor) They are also a small manageable size.
Good luck and hope you find one you like! Renee D

I love the Adkins Advantage bars in chocolate peanut butter and almond
brownie. YUM!

The Atkins Advantage are the only ones I have been able to consistently
stomach since surgery (almost 2 years ago). They have recently improved the
flavors and textures of most of them, although I actually prefer the old
chocolate coconut to the new. Now at least there are several tolerable
flavors. The flavors I like are: chocolate coconut, chocolate mocha crisp,
S'mores, and pralines and cream. I need to try the cinnamon one, but the
old one grossed me out so I have been putting it off. I liked the inside of
the cookies and cream flavor, but I didn't like the coating. (But then I
don't like white chocolate flavors so if you do it may taste fine to
you--I'd eat regular oreos without the cream filling LOL) These are a good
size, too. Most times I can't eat the whole bar at once. If you catch a
sale, they are pretty reasonably priced and you can find them cheaper at
WalMart than at the grocery store.<p>Just a note on the sugar-free
stuff. Sometimes they make me dump. I'm not sure why but in particular the
Carb Solutions bars caused dumping although they were labelled sugar free
(and judging by the taste they were). Just buy one bar at a time until you
are sure you can tolerate them well.

You have to be very careful. Adkins and other "low Carb" protien
bars quote impact carbs. The EAS bar I had yesterday said 2 g carb, when
it really had 20 but inly 2 impact carbs, what ever that means. The EAS
has only one gram of sugar and it tastes like it too Yuk!!!!
I really like the zone bars. Thay have 210 cal 7-9g fat, 22g carbs and 16g
protein. They taste great I like the Strawberry yogart and the fudge
graham. They may have alittle less protein but that are great tasting.
They fallow a healthy 40-30-30 percent division.

I bought Carb Solutions (Chocolate Cappuccino Crisp) and it is delicious!!
It has 0 grams of sugar, 2 grams of carbohydrates, has 240 calories and 26
grams of protein.
