Smile Atkins Diet Advantage Bar

I have read all the info posted against the engineered protein bars, but if you ARE going to have one, are the Atkins ones more low-carb sound?

Is there anywhere on the net where I can find the food label for these bars? they are not at the Atkins site, and I would rather not stand for hours reading each one of them at the store.

Thanks for all the support for this new low-carber!!

There is an article in the Technical low-carbing forum under Research/Media called 'Low Carb Bars are often Loaded with Carbohydrates' that you may want to read.

Reading labels will not help you with the carb counts. You have to calculate the fat, protein and carbs to find the hidden carbs. Annoying but true.

There is a calculator in Low Carb Tools, orange bar, top of the page. Atkins is no better than any other brand.
