Has anyone seen this new snickers energy bar?

[IronSlingah]

I was watching TV and saw it advertised and as usuall the people eating the bar are all muscular and athletic in the comercial and usually climbing up some mountain or running a marathon. Has anyone seen or tried this bar and if so is it any good or is it the crock of BS i think it is?

I'm sure those people didn't get that way by eating snickers. IMO, I feel commercials like that are misleading.

I ate one of those a while back. Tastes real good, but that's probably because it is just a candy bar with a little extra protein added.

With 18G Sugar and only 9G Protein, its crap - Get a Detour bar instead if you must have something like this.

Because they are full of shit just like any other damn protein bar Figures all the good ones are the worst ones for you.


Funky - PB Banana was my fav as well.

I hear you on that one. You're right, the Detour Bar tastes just like a snickers bar. I cannot remember the last time I had either.

Are you competing this year?

well, this new Snickers bar is much better than the regular one nutrition wise.

Heh there is nothing funnier than the fitness marketing ploys.

If Prince were a dishonest, misleading person I bet he could easily make atleast thousands by selling a piece of dog doo in a box if he promoted it. Well, I wouldn't go that far, but you get the point.
