If you're using them PWO, provided they have plenty of protein, I don't see a problem. Simple carbs spike insulin and increase the concentration of glucose for glycogen replenishment.

If, however, you're using them as an MRP, ditch these bars and make your own. If, of course, you can't get your hands on a good meal at the time.

I don't like protein bars for that very reason. Too much sugar and fat and they taste nasty. I started making my own bars from info I got here out of whey, oats, egg whites, slpenda, peanut butter and/or nuts and bake. They're - actually - not bad.
