Are these legit? 20 grams of protein in 200 calories + caffeine. I've seen then in grocery stores for 2.50. That seems crazy to me, a similarly priced protein bar might have like 10 grams of protein in 300 calories and be all soy protein isolate. <tinyboa

How about you read the ingredients list before you ask us?

Or you could eat a premier protein bar for about the same contents at $0.50/bar and just take a caffeine pill or caffeine gum.

Sorry, meant pure protein brand, not premier.

Looks legit. Might try it, can't be any worse than the energy drinks I use.

>>122684

Don't see soy but not sure about some of those ingredients.

21 grams of sugar isn't so terrible for convinence food, what's wrong with skim milk?

/fit/izen 06/14/17 (Wed) 16:14:55 No.122704

Milk should be the basis for sugar. If it has more sugar than milk, it's probably shit.

meh, 20 g of protein for 21 grams sugar is a decent trade off.

just bought 2, will try tomorrow before my workout.

where is the caffeine?

/fit/izen 06/14/17 (Wed) 23:32:37 No.122717

I just mix coffee into my protein shake when I'm feeling something like that. Tastes great. Don't buy starcucks.

just tried the chocolate one.

its pretty gud but nothing special. tastes like heavily milked, mild coffee. wouldn't drink one everyday but its a good replacement for rtd proton shakes.

>>122715

doesn't say on the can, looked it up and best i could find was 115 mg.

/fit/izen 06/15/17 (Thu) 16:06:39 No.122753

Come on anon ! Starbucks?? Really? Get that shit outta here if you want caffeine drink some black coffee & if you want protein eat some chicken!

/fit/izen 06/15/17 (Thu) 17:16:14 No.122757

This is not even the best of them.

Recently I saw a Mars chocolate bar in a corner store. The package said "20 GRAMS OF EXTRA PROTEIN PER BAR". Holy shit, who buys this crap? Do people actually believe eating a pile of junk that has some protein inserted will somehow magically benefit them?
