If you haven't tried these they are awesome.. I really like the Cinnamon creme bars.. they have 19g of protein, 23 vitamins and minerals and are only 220 calories.. they make several different kinds.. but the cinnamon ones have the most protein. Also the Pure Protein bars (that you can buy at Wally World) are really good too. The chewy chocolate chip have 20g of protein 0g of trans fat and are only 200 calories.. woot! .. they also have chocolate deluxe and chocolate peanut butter that have 20 g of protein as well.

Do you get the CinnaMON creme bars at Walmart? I'm not familiar with them but sound yummy.
I agree with you on the Pure Protein bars. I love the choc. peanut butter . I tend to eat only half, (for a snack), unless, like today, I missed lunch, and then it's a great lunch treat. Cindy

Cool, I'm going to Wally World tomorrow. I'll check them out, thanks! Of course I'm on the 5 day pouch test so I won't be able to tase them for a while...bummer! But thanks for the info anyway.

how much sugar per serving? that is where the rubber hits the road for me. Ideally needs to be 7g or less per serving, although I can tolerate 9 on occasion.

There is only 3 grams of sugar in the Pure Protein bars,, (7g of sugar alcohol.. which doesn't seem to affect me).. and zero in the South Beach bars...with 18g of sugar alcohol.. I dunno.. I have no problems with them.. I don't worry about that sort of thing much.. as long as I get the protein in.

Not about the Pure Protein bars from Walmart (and other stores carry them too, like CVS, target and Walgreens).
They run about $1.97 at our Walmart per bar. I noticed yesterday you can buy a small box of 6 for $6.97....a great savings. Might buy one and see if you like it, but definitely a better value. Cindy

I got the cinnamon creme ones before, but they don't sell them in my area anymore?? I don't understand that! They are good though! Also costco has a great deal on the jumbo pack of the smaller ones it has cinnamon raisin (tastes like a cookie) and the peanut butter. They only have 10g of protein vs the 20 but they are quite a bit smaller and could be used in combination with a small yogurt. The peanut butter has 6g of sugars and the cinnamon raisin has 7g of sugars. I also eat the premier protein bars, a new item at our costco. They have 8g of fat, 24 carbs, 10 sugars and 30 g of protein. Becuase of my sugar sesitivity, I only eat 1/2 at a time, but they really are quite filling. I like the yogurt peanut crunch the best. I know the ones upnorth guy first recommended, but I don't know what the difference in sugars and sugar alcohols is.

Thanks for all the nutrition info. I love the Premier shakes but shied away from the sugar content in their bars. Knowing I will only be able to get 1/2 down at a time solves that dilemma. As I have to count sugar alcohols in my sugar stats (have some dumping tendencies), I know they are not right for me at this time.
Dont you all wish there were someplace in our group to post all of our store finds?

south beach living bars are great. They have soy protein for those who have trouble with whey like me. They are delicious and have a great amount of protein. They also make a 100 calorie snack bar that has 6 grams of protein and tastes like a candy bar. Very good for those times you are craving sweets
