    I often get the munchies after teaching a class and usually end up chomping on a chocolate bar (terrible I know).

    Anyway, I'm looking for something low in fat and carbs but high in protein.

    I picked up a Myoplex Low Carbs bar but it tasted like crap.

    So, any recommendations?

    Dunno - never actually tasted crap so I have nothing to compare it too :D

    As far as bars go I've never had one I would eat "for pleasure". Why not try Myoplex as a drink instead - the choccie premix ones are quite nice!

    If your in Canada, I suggest Vector bars.

    They taster great, and give you alot of energy, and protein.

    I set myself up for that I suppose :rolleyes:

    I was looking for something to eat really.

    Surely there's a good tasting bar out there :confused:

    Sure - Mars, Twix, Snickers :D

    Some of the breakfast type bars are quite low fat, not great for protein but they taste pretty good.

    Cheerios bars & Golden Graham's bars are my faves!

    The makers of Ensure put out a line of products called
    Glucerna. These products are for people with Diabetes.
    Don't let the fact that they are for Diabetics turn you off
    on the idea of trying them.
    The meal replacement bars offer excellent balanced nutrition
    and taste good too. Here is a link for their product line so
    you can check out the nutritional information.

    Do NOT eat the Met-RX bars!!! DISGUSTING!

    Power bars are good though(my favorite is chocolate). Do they have Power Bars in the UK?
