“Soft and Delicious. Always moist with a crunchy surprise in every bite.  It’s like two treats in one!”

Once again, I got lucky and received a sample of bpi Sports BEST Protein Bars.  Cookies and Cream flavor and S’Mores.   These 2.3 oz bars pack a whopping 20 grams of protein with ZERO trans fat, 28 grams carbs, 3 grams of sugar.

After an 8 mile run, my longest run since April in Boston, my body screamed for protein.  These bars called my name and I opened the Cookies and Cream flavor.   It didn’t disappoint.  It was just as described.  Sweet (maybe a little too sweet for my taste but good for after a run), very moist, rich and yes, it sure did taste “fresh baked.”   It has crunchy little pieces of cookie but with a smooth, dough base.

I had Ted try the other flavor, S’Mores.  Some bars upset his stomach but not these.  He really enjoyed the texture plus the sweet overall flavor.

The bars are a whey protein isolate, milk protein isolate base so they aren’t vegan friendly.  But if it’s gluten free with good taste, then this is the bar. 

Would I buy these bars?  You bet!  I’m on a mission to look for these at the local Vitamin Store. 

Are they too small? Too large?  No way.  The sample size bar, 1.16 oz was perfect for me which means 1/2 a full size bar will go a very long way.

I don’t mean to be an advertisement for these but I’ve used other bpi sports products and I really trust the company.  It’s no surprise they have introduced another product for me to stock my shelves.

Do you have a favorite protein bar?  What brand? What do you like about it over other bars?
