I am shocked to admit that Pure Protein shakes are one of the better tasting protein shakes I've tried. The flavor will certainly not blow you away like Fairlife, but for an option with 140 calories and 30 grams of protein, it is surprisingly drinkable.
Whoa Momma makes delicious gelato, but it sits right in the middle as a protein treat. It is higher in protein than regular gelato, but doesn't come close (nutritionally) to the likes of Halo Top or other protein ice cream pints.
Gatorade protein bars definitely have appeal as a change of pace from the typical chewy protein bars, but with over 300 calories and around 30 grams of sugar per bar, there are far better options out there.
CTRL bars have good flavor, but they are very sweet and lack the nutrition facts that would make this a go-to protein bar. The texture is very similar to Anabar, but overly sweet with less protein overall.
Quest protein chips are Quest's best product: they resemble actual chips, have incredible flavor, and the macros are unmatched.
Fit Crunch Bars are some of the most popular protein bars on the market today, and these wafer bars are even better.
I feared the worst with a high-protein cereal made from pea protein, but this is surprisingly good. It won't replace your favorite sugary cereal, but you won't find a better plant-based option.
The Arnold Expo is filled with hundreds of vendors and tons of new protein snacks. Here are some of the best, the worst, and the weirdest.
Unbelievabuns are light & airy, exactly what you'd want in a bread bun, but the chewiness and overall lackluster flavor make it slightly less appealing.
Annie's Super Mac is nearly indistinguishable from the regular Annie's mac & cheese, so if you like that, you'll be a fan.
Truely cereal caught me surprise as a formidable protein cereal option. It compares pretty closely to Magic Spoon in terms of shape, texture, and crunch, but the overall flavor is one step down from Magic Spoon.
If you've ever had a jar of flavored high-protein peanut butter, you've experienced the flavor of Outright bars. They don't stand out against out peanut butter-based bars, but you could do worse.
Quest protein shakes have excellent macros, but they don't impress in the flavor department. The experience is not much different than if you simply mixed Quest protein powder with water.
I've tried over 20 different protein cereals, and here is my official ranking of them all!
If you've never heard of broad beans, they may just become your new go-to crunchy snack.
Quest Frosted Cookies are much more like cake bites than they are cookies, but when they taste good, that's not necessarily a terrible thing.
I can tolerate mediocre protein snacks, but this one is flat out bad. Kellogg's is trying to appeal to Gen Z with this cereal with their over-the-top branding, but their Special K protein cereal is SIGNIFICANTLY better.
Goodles is as delicious as advertised. It's delicious mac & cheese with lots of protein, fiber, and nutrients. What's not to love?
G2G Bars are refrigerated protein bars done right. The peanut butter bars are absolutely delicious, and any fan of peanut butter will not be disappointed.
Banza protein waffles toast up the way you'd hope a frozen waffle would, but the chickpea aftertaste is incredibly off-putting (and lingers for a while).
Legendary Foods has created a chip that rivals regular Popchips, but with some pretty insane macros. It won't satisfy that chip craving in the crunch department, but it makes for a great high-protein snack.
If you need a bar that checks all the health food boxes (gluten-free, plant-based, organic) then GoMacro has you covered, but the flavors won't blow you away.
Barebells protein bars are some of the most delicious bars out there, but how do their plant-based protein bars stack up?
RXBar gives you exactly what you expect: it's all laid out right on the package, and what you see is exactly what you taste. If you want a protein bar with minimal ingredients, I can see the appeal, but there are far tastier options out there.
