Imma try this. Sounds good AF

[@benjaminbrooks7286]

I watched the part 2. Watching this one now. But one of m t favorites has been pb&j from outright and all of their flavors are pretty good tbh

[@TF242]

Please try Daryl's Performance Bars - Chocolate Caramel Pecan (other flavours are ok but this one is best in my opinion). Downside: Price and fridge storage.

[@A1Cirillo]

Quest is undeniably the best when it comes to taste and macros. Hero blueberry and the coconut one. They changed the recipe a few months ago all the regular bars are even better now.

[@DroneCorpse]

Quest Blueberry is sex in your mouth.

[@italianwaffle5592]

Quest is undeniably NOT the best. It’s okay, but it tastes pretty fake. Grenade is the best when it comes to taste and texture, it’s like a chocolate bar.

[@AlexADalton]

Artificial sweeteners ruin it.

[@johnbowling2582]

Birthday cake is my favorite

[@mach5jeep]

Pro tip: Don't order protein bars from Amazon in the summer.

[@HDAnalytics]

Fantastic. Gonna add my suggestion for the Kirkland bars, maybe it’s cause I’m at the end of a fat loss diet but I really think I’ve always liked them.

[@bobboberson6664]

Yeah they are good

[@blainebickle1178]

the chocolate brownie ones taste like chocolate chocolate chip cookies (soft) and are so good!

[@WolfgerSilberbaer]

They are (or were) surprisingly decent, but over the years I've acquired an aversion to them.

[@reviewsfromthebunker229]

Curious to know what yo think of Kirkland protein bars.

[@scottiegeek4364]

Great video overall, I just wish you gave the number of calories instead of/in addition to the macros.

[@AnandJ]

The Costco protein bars are amazing!

[@Farquad76.547]

No they ain’t lol chewy and weird consistency like plasticine

[@lukeharris2622]

Dr Mike what are your thoughts on this: I believe basically 99% of store bought stevia products actually aren’t 0 calories and actually have like 3.33 calories per gram because if you read the ingredients label, it says the #1 ingredient is maltodextrin which is a sugar with 4 cals per gram. Since they add a bit of stevia to the bag, it brings the total calories per gram down below 4; which allows them to say it’s 0 calories per serving…. Which is 1 gram

[@fireblade9781]

there's plenty of stevia products without maltodextrin

[@RenaissancePeriodization]

That might be true in some cases! - Dr. Mike

[@19guyswithcutboxers23]

Erythritol is another common ingredient in the granulated stevia, and some bags even have a little asterisk next to the 0 calorie label that leads to a very small text footnote that says it has "fewer than 4 calories per serving which the FDA considers dietetically zero." Most bags do not say this. So I either add 10 calories to whatever I put it in (cuz I ain't using no 1 gram of that shit), which is still probably incorrect on the low side, or I use the liquid stevia, which is probably also not zero but probably closer to zero because it's more concentrated.

[@TheUncleRamone]

I don't eat many protein bars but I have had this maple glazed donut One bar once or twice that I thought was pretty good. It's like 230 calories, 1g of sugar, 20g protein, 8g fat and 23g of carbs.

[@abouchakour]

The answer is in the title of the video.

[@marialucas249]

Great video, like always. Next time include some of my favorites, bulk protein bar (pistachio and white chocolate), is great. You should try in one video with European brands, there are a lot and high quality

[@marialucas249]

Also, the brand Maxi Nutrition has the best bars! The Creamy Core Blubery muffin or any flavour really are amazing

[@tuckergrimsley8540]

Bro tell us the calories

[@TheBlackSwordsman243]

Calories the us tell bro

[@bensugden1586]

Multiply carbs and protein by 4, then the fats by 9

[@legendarysausageking175]

Bro tell us the bro

[@xKarenWalkerx]

Do the math - he provided the macros for the bars before he rates them.

[@executioner_ecgbert884]

Bro bro bro bro, bro

[@alexanderr3098]

MetRx soy infused bars over Barbell protein bars…. 😤😤😤 no way!!

[@pat06061]

No CICO bar or MRE bar!?!?

[@captainkill21]

Been on a Barebells kick for a year. They seem to be well rounded. Glad your review confirmed 👍

[@MarkWiseTechno]

I started eating protein bars for the first time on my current diet. I quickly settled on One bar and Pure Protein as my favorites. Lenny & Larry's Cookie-fied bar is really good too.

[@jacksmile6669]

3:52 HE HAS A WIFE??????

[@matthewbird2829]

You need to try grenade protein bars🥴😍 they're pretty much the only nice option in the UK

[@technocracylao]

Thankfully we get them here in Oz as well and the Grenade Oreo is absolutely the best! I have to double check the labels as they seriously taste better than most chocolate bars here!
