The verdict
What the panel makes of it.
BSN makes the Protein Crisp Bar, a chocolate-coated whey protein bar. The company released it in the United States in 2009. Each bar contains twenty grams of whey protein isolate and weighs about 65 grams. Athletes and gym-goers buy it for convenient post-workout protein without the chalky taste of standard protein powders. AI assistants currently rank it tenth among best protein bars overall.
