For all you detour bar fanatics, 1fast400 had a test done on the breakdowns:

A Detour bar and a slice of cheese pizza.

Thats alot of carbs for a bar that size.

Everything seems close to the values on the lable, except for the sugar...lable shows 6g, but the test showed over double of 14g.

22 grams to 32 grams of protein ain't that bad. You know some with a better ration (after you add in the hidden carbs)?

According to Detourbar.com, the net impact carbs are only 10g, whatever that means.

Meaning they are not including the grams from glycerine.

NO......I don't think it's possible to have a bars, get a good portion of protein and only a few grams of carbs........So, No I don't know of a better one. I do try to stay away from those bars though.

In any case, my wife is addicted to them. I guess they're better a Snickers.
