Hi Everyone!

I’ve recently started a low-carb diet and am interested in the quick snack protein bars, but I didn’t see a lot of information on which brands people preferred. So, I purchased a small variety and had a taste test. For anyone interested, here are my results:


Doctor's LowCarb Diet (Chocolate Mint Cookie) – Scores 8 of 10
185 Cal, 3.3g Fat, 20.5g Pro, 2.6g Carb, 1.9g CCR
Much like fudge. Minor aftertaste.

Protein Diet Bar (Honey Nougat) – Scores 8 of 10
190 Cal, 5g Fat, 22g Pro, 2.5g Carb, 2.0g CCR
Consistency like a brownie, but the flavor is mainly in the aftertaste.

Protein Revolution (Double Chocolate Fudge Almond) – Scores 7 of 10
220 Cal, 8g Fat, 21g Pro, 2.5g Carb, 2.5g CCR
About like a brownie, although the flavor is a little off.

Designer (Double Chocolats!) – Scores 6 of 10
260 Cal, 4.5g Fat, 30g Pro, 6g Carb, 5g CCR
Taffy consistency. Taste is slightly bitter.

Ultimate Lo Carb 2 (Chocolate Smores Supreme) – Scores 6 of 10
230 Cal, 6g Fat, 20g Pro, 3g Carb, 3g CCR
Heavy cake consistency that's slightly bitter and stale. Flavor only in aftertaste.

Atkins Diet Advantage (Chocolate Peanut Butter) – Scores 5 of 10
218 Cal, 13g Fat, 19g Pro, 3g Carb, 1g CCR
Dry, although not crunchy. Poor flavor. Slightly bad aftertaste.

Take 2 (Cool Cookie Dough) – Scores 5 of 10
180 Cal, 4g Fat, 22g Pro, 2g Carb, 1g CCR
Dry and crumbly. Okay flavor.

Keto Bar (Chocolate Peanut Butter Cup) – Scores 4 of 10
224 Cal, 9g Fat, 24g Pro, 5g Carb, 4g CCR
Waxlike texture and stuck in mouth like peanut butter. Almost no flavor.

Atkins Diet Advantage (Chocolate Macadamia Nut) – Scores 3 of 10
221 Cal, 13g Fat, 19g Pro, 2.6g Carb, 1.6g CCR
Similar to CPB Advantage bar, but the macadamia flavor tasted like pickles - I hate pickles.

Keto Bar (Oatmeal Raisin) – Scores 3 of 10
220 Cal, 9g Fat, 24g Pro, 4g Carb, 3g CCR
Vile flavor due to strong chemical taste. A little dry.


The 1 to 10 rating is my own unscientific scale. With a 1, I wouldn’t go beyond the first bite while I couldn’t think on how to improve a 10. My own personal tastes lean toward sweets like creamy milk chocolate and away from vegetables, while yours may be very different. Finally, I have no reasons other than taste to applaud or bad-mouth any of the above products.

Hope this helps a few people. See y’all soon. I’ll be the thin one my sexy swimsuit by the pool.
