Taste is Everything When Choosing a Protein BarWritten by Marc David
As consumers, we are faced daily with choices about what to eat. As a bodybuilder, we are bombarded with protein bars that promise everything from tons of protein, low carbs, less fat, and cheapest bar on market. But rarely do any of bars meet most necessary requirement of them all. If bar doesn't taste great, then I don't want to eat it.Regardless of how much protein might exist in a particular bar, if Bar A has more but tastes worse then than Bar B, I'm still more likely to choose Bar B. As a consumer of protein bars, I don't feel like forcing myself to eat something two or more times a day just because it has best whey-protein on market. And while some bars can claim to be great tasting, they never do definitive real taste test. The real taste test is a bar that not only health conscious adults will enjoy but one that you can give your child and it won't come home in his/her backpack. If your child (if you are childless, get a bar and test it out on a niece/nephew) won't eat bar, chances are there's a reason for that. Because it doesn't taste good. Over last few years, low sugar, low carbs has become such a big deal. So now we have some of healthiest bars on market. But nobody wants (I didn't say won't) to eat them. Because it's like going to dentist. Who wants to go? We go because we know consequences of not going are worse. But is that really how you want to feel about something that you eat two or more times a day?
