Shameless sponsor plug but Amrita makes delicious bars. Similar to larabars but are lighter and sweeter.
Cliff Mojo bars are delicious.
I think I’ve tried more than my fair share of all the bars on the market from Picky to Bonk Breaker and the list goes on.
I don’t really consider Stinger waffles a bar as they are more like a cookie but I like them a lot.
Clif bars are also great and they continue to come out with interesting favors and can be relatively cheap when found on sale.
“Nutrition” makes me laugh
.
I usually eat a cliff bar for breakfast at work with yogurt and banana… White chocolate macadamia nut is the best by far IMO; however I eat all the flavors…
They are mostly organic also…
Quest Nutrition, hand’s down.
But then again, that depends on what you’re going for. They’re strictly protein, and taste utterly fantastic. 0-5 grams of carbs and 0-5 grams of fat. 20 grams of protein. Add this and say, a banana, and you have the perfect post-workout recovery.

Here’s another vote for Quest.
I basically just eat one to placate my chocolate bar urges every couple days. They give me an ok amount of protein, not much crappy carbs (I’m not anti-carb, just prefer to get them from the right places), and taste awesome.
These are the best:
Don’t taste quite the same as Reese’s (have more of a dark chocolate flavor, and a HINT of odd aftertaste), but more than good enough for me, especially living in Korea where they don’t sell Reese’s. Double Chocolate Chunk, Coconut Cashew, and PB&J, and Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough are also very good.
Just reiterating my love for Quest… I just purchased 16 boxes. Seriously.
- I have a recipe for a date/fig bar that is my go to. Better than anything store bought. I sell them to friends.
- Stinger Waffles (honey only)
- Mojo (red label only)
