New treats…
We all know that some protein bars taste like absolute crap..well, I found two that don’t, finally!!
A couple times I went to GNC and they gave me little samples of one called "Titan"…I couldn’t believe how much like a candy bar it was…chocolate, caramel, all that good stuff AND protein…so I kinda got hooked on it and now I buy one every now and then…well I went to a different GNC than the one I normally go to for a Titan bar and as it turned out that location didn’t carry Titan bars…FRICK!! I thought "are you kidding me?"…grrrrrrrr…..I totally was all set on getting one…the guy who worked there talked me into something he said was similar to it, the Supreme Protein bar…I was skeptical and thought no way could there be another protein bar that comes close to Titan…but I had no other option and really wanted something sweet, so I bought it…OH My people….it tasted exactly like a 1000 GRAND candy bar!! seriously! But it has between 26-30 gms of protein (can’t remember exactly how much)…And it just so happens that the Supreme Protein bar won an award at the Olympia –Protein Bar of the Year !!….I’m tellin ya, you gotta try it!

Is the Supreme protein bar in an orange packet? If so, I tried it myself and it’s yummy! I don’t think I’ve tried Titan though.
BTW I tried a sample of that Superpump 250 that you often blog about, and I found that it tasted weird. It didn’t really give me a pump either-maybe coz I prob only had half a serving (sample size). I do want to try it again- what flavor do you recommend?

Titans are my favorite. Supreme is also good. Another good one, although they’re higher in fat (18g) are "Oh yeah" bars. they also taste like candy bars. My husband likes those the best (but he can afford the extra fat, I’ll stick to the titans).

I looked at the oh yeah bars and I’m not a big fan of anything "nougat" or with peanuts in it..and that’s what it looked like, kinda like a baby ruth?

My favorite protein bars are the Pure Protein ones. They have very little sugar in them, and I think they taste great! I try not to eat them too often and have "real" food instead. They’re awesome in a pinch, though.. I haven’t tried the Titan or Supreme, although I’m sure I will at some point..

Yeah, I guess the "oh yeahs’ are kind of like a baby ruth. good comparison. I won’t eat them just because of the fat content way too high imo. but you’ve got the supreme and the titans which are both really good. We also like the clif builder bars. But they have to be the builder bars, those are the ones with 25g of protein in them (not the regular clif bars). They are also good but not as good as the titans. they are more readily available in more stores though if you need something in a pinch.

KC - I agree too about not eating them too often. They are good when I’m on the go and will be away from the house for several hours (between meals for example).
