The Keto Bars
Are you ever overwhelmed by the amount of sports nutrition bars? We are and decided to do a battle of the bars to figure out the best go-to option depending on what you are looking for. Whether it is Keto specific, high in protein, or just a healthy, delicious snack, here is the bar guide for you!
Perfect Keto
Perfect Keto Bars are keto-friendly with 2-3g of net carbs, 17-19g of clean keto-friendly fats, and no added artificial sweeteners, dairy, soy, or corn fiber. Perfect Keto Bars also use real food ingredients you will recognize, like almonds, cacao butter, and grass-fed collagen. So even if you are not following a Keto diet, these bars are a great go-to for a high protein, low carb snack.
Munk Pack Keto Granola Bars:
You will really like the taste of these granola bars, the texture is soft and chewy, and we haven’t tried a flavor we didn’t love, particularly the blueberry almond vanilla. Each bar will give you 5g of protein, 1g of sugar, and only 2g of net carbs.
The Meal Bars
ProBar Meal bars are nutrient-dense packed with wholesome ingredients to keep you fueled and full, especially when you are on the go. Not only do they taste great, but they offer a healthy balance of good fats, whole grains, and plant-based protein.
Kate’s Real Food Bar is literally handcrafted from organic and GMO-free ingredients, including protein-packed peanut butter, heart-healthy chocolate, and fiber-filled dried fruit. Kate’s bars are also lightly sweetened with honey to create a nourishing, lower-sugar bar.
The Gluten Free Bars
Betty Lou’s bars come in various fruit-based flavors that almost everyone will love. Betty Lou’s bars are made without refined sugars and are non-GMO, gluten-free, and vegan. They are also NOT dry and nearly impossible to just eat half a bar – our bet you will enjoy finishing each bite.

The “Guilty Pleasure” Bars and OUR TOP PICK
JoJe´bars are like eating a slice of cake- we are not kidding. They are pillows of joy with their perfect texture and taste. Made with organic ingredients and providing a balanced macronutrient profile, including 14 grams of healthy fats, 37 grams of carbs, and 6 grams of protein. This is our guilty pleasure without feeling very guilty about it.
Honey Stinger Cracker bars contain True Source Certified honey, peanut butter, and also 10g of plant-based protein sandwiched between two crackers – that are then coated with chocolate to give you a perfectly sweet, salty, and crunchy snack.
The “On Your Bike” Bars
Skratch Labs Anytime Bars are a delicious energy source when your body needs it most. Formulated with whole food ingredients and made with half as much sugar as typical energy bars (which is about 21 grams of sugar per serving), the nutritional profile includes a nut butter base, whole grains, fruit, and a touch of coconut nectar.
Clif Nut Butter bars are a great new take on the classic energy bar as each bite delivers a delicious, creamy nut butter inside. These bars are USDA organic, non-GMO, and low glycemic, meaning they won’t cause your blood sugar to spike leading to a sugar crash. They also are easy to eat, and won’t get clogged up in your throat when you are on the move.
The Protein Bars
Clif Builder’s Bars are protein powerhouses, with 20 grams of complete plant protein and essential amino acids to help you repair and rebuild muscles after a hard training session. Clif’s protein bars do not have artificial sweeteners, sugar alcohols, or trans fats, making them pure protein bliss.
Epic bars are a total departure from the traditional granola/nut-based protein bar – using all-natural meat as their main protein source. Each bar gives you 15 grams of protein and is 100% organic, plus there is enough sodium as a sports drink to help you rehydrate faster when drinking water while eating.
The Caffeinated Bars
Verb Caffeinated Energy Bites are yummy, energizing products that give you a boost without the coffee jitters. Their caffeinated bars contain caffeine from organic green tea and use minimal ingredients like oats and almond butter. Each Verb bite includes the same amount of caffeine as a shot of espresso (65mg) and 13 grams of carbs, making them a great pre-workout or mid-day snack option.
Quantum energy squares are chef-crafted and contain organic green coffee beans, which pack the same punch as a shot of espresso. Organic green coffee provides a natural caffeine source and is rich in antioxidants that can enhance focus, clarity, and performance. There are also 10g of protein formulated to provide long-lasting energy.
Hammer Nutrition Hammer Bars simply aren’t that good and are not worth the money.
