Taste is Everything When Choosing a Protein Bar

Written 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, andrepparttar cheapest bar onrepparttar 115695 market. But rarely do any ofrepparttar 115696 bars meetrepparttar 115697 most necessary requirement of them all. Ifrepparttar 115698 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 hasrepparttar 115699 best whey-protein onrepparttar 115700 market.

But nobody wants (I didn't say won't) to eat them. Because it's like going torepparttar 115706 dentist. Who wants to go? We go because we knowrepparttar 115707 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?
