Because I exercise often, I am always looking for ways to increase my protein intake. Protein bars are one of several sources I rely on. The problem has always been the amount of added sugar. Almost every protein bar I have seen (and I've seen 50 ) has very close to the same amount of added sugar as protein. As research tells us, added sugar is unhealthy. I've always liked Kind Bars for their choi CTDaveH · walmart.com

I absolutely Love these bars albeit a bit expensive. They’re organic, gluten AND dairy free as well as having 10 or 11 grams of protein. That almost fits all of my needs; I wish they had more protein. They’re a bit chewy so this time of year they get hard if left in the car (in the cold). Definitely recommend! Nanci · walmart.com
