i wood of thought with the six figure salary your on it wouldnt be a problem lol :pfft:

if you get them from the gym thay dare, but if you get at pak n slave the only $3 or so and not to bad for a meal i think

[2guns]

they have alot of calories packed into a small bar, they are alright good thing to get if u stopping to get gas and want something semi decent rather than shit

[chchardgainer]

so you rate them ?? i always thought they were another one of those trying to be healthy alternatives that they have really just processed the shit outta. what are the nutritional facts for them ... if you know ??

[Agent]

Here's the nutritional information http://www.onesquaremeal.com/nutrition_info.htm

I'm sure there are a lot of worse things but they don't impress me that much, the composition is based on the RDI for nutrients which is a bit off the mark in my opinion.

Per Bar:

16.7g Protein

23.3g Fat

90g Carbohydrate (30g sugar)

[ngapuhi strong]

as far as bars go they seam to be th best of all of them

if anyone knows of ones with more protien and less fat i'd be keen to know

[The Legend Killer]

What do they taste like?

[2guns]

well its better than a chocolate bar or a bag of potatoe chips, id put them in tha saem category because for myself itd be the only time id get one at a dairy or gassie etc, wouldnt specially buy them to have in the pantry

and they taste all good if u like apricot muesli bars

[Pseudonym]

On a related note, has anyone tried biscuits from the Protein Bakery? They're very good. =P~

[Agent]

yeah they taste alright, as 2guns said, like a muesli bar.

And ngapuhistrong, most of the protein bars at the supermarket have a similar amount of protein and are fairly low in fat. There are a couple that have over 20 grams of protein, and I think the big HPLC bars have about 45g of protein, 20g of carbs, and about 15g of fat, not the tastiest though, they're just really dry on account of all that protein I guess.

[The Legend Killer]

Those HPLC bars are yuck! I'd still eat one though. :pfft:

That is just shit for a body builder sorry, stick to a protein bar or protein cookie in my opinion, if your on the run etc.

[blairandkelly]

quite tasty , but i agree with dumbledogg a tadd fatty and sugary

[craig.j]

I think these are aimed more at a tramper or some sort of activity where you are trying to conserve weight + being convienient. going on a tramp, these would be awsome as they are light and high in energy, with hepsa nuts for fats

Dumbelldog is right, not the best for a body builder.

stoping at a gas station on a long hall with no food can be a bad thing as the choices avalible arent the best. ive been caught out more than once :roll:

it might be worth a new topic to see what people think the best, worst foods are hehe :pfft:

[Gym rat]

I have tryed biscuts from the proetin Factory they taste very nice.

[SamWelly]

They taste really good.

Which means they are probably really unhealthy :pfft:

I'm with 2 guns on this one. Wouldn't rate them highly at all.

As for Protein Cookies, I used to eat them untill I realised how much shit is in them. They bake them in Newtown I believe, and a colleuge of mine said the smell from the factory is faul. I knew they were too good to be true when I saw a high protien count with minimal carbs. Guess its like coke zero...

Each to their own but I'll stick to my chicken and rice :wink:

Never tried them for the above reason, if going to have a bar there are way better options.
