Can anyone suggest a brand that tastes pretty good and is reasonably healthy?

thanks

Actually, it's been a couple of years since I've had a whole bar, but the samples of Labrada's are pretty tasty.

Designer Protein made a couple (not sure if they still do) that weren't bad taste-wise.
One was called Detour Bar and I forget the other, but they had peanuts and caramel, etc.

Pure Protein made a S'mores bar that was pretty tasty.

I don't remember the label content of any of these, nor do I know if they're even still made, but most of the halfway decent-tasting bars are loaded with sugar and I haven't bought any bars in years.

I like the Zero Impact bars by VPX.  They are actually food bars so they dont have all the garbage like high fructose corn syrup, malitol, sorbitol, ect...that stuff just tears my stomach up and leaves me bloated.  It seems to be one of the few bars that dont have all that stuff in 'em.

They have around 440 calories and 20 grams of fat (mostly unsaturated) so they are certainly not for everyone.  Maybe just eat half the bar at a time if its too much.

I like CNP's flapjack bars - they're probably nutritionally suspect but for a quick calorie fix in between meals they seem to do the trick. But then so would a Snickers.
