I like the convenience of protein/nutrition/food bars, and I’ve tried a lot over the years: Bear Valley Pemmican bars, Powerbars, Clif bars, Larabars, Honey Stinger bars, Probars, and a number of others. I like most of them, but I’m always on the search for the next-best-bar. I generally have 2 a day while bp’ing, and they are good enough to eat in town.
Here are my current favorites:
DALE’S RAW PROTEIN BARS: http://www.dalesrawfoods.com/collections/protein-bars They seem healthy to me, not overly sweet. I like graham cracker flavor best but several other flavors are good, too. Sometimes a bit dry. Made to order, excellent customer service. Since they are raw, they have a shorter shelf life. I’ve had no trouble on my 3-5 day hikes. Frequently on sale. See ingredient list in the pic below.
RISE ALMOND HONEY BARS: https://risebar.com Nice, simple, sweet. They have new flavors which I have not tried, but I like the Almond Honey ones. They can be a little oily because of the almost paste in them. I got mine from Amazon, but lately my local Vitamin Cottage health food store has begun to carry them. See ingredient list in the pic below.
