NuGo protein bars

I just tried a NuGo vanilla yogurt bar . For something that tastes like a large (50g)  rice krispie treat drenched in white chocolate, it's actually less calories than the average protein bar (170 cals), and has a whopping 11g protein, which is almost as high a protein:calorie ratio as a Clif builder's bar, and is better than the smaller (40g), more caloric (190 cal), less protein-loaded (10g) Nature Valley Greek Yogurt bars.

The Slim range pack even more protein per calorie. Like the Slim Brownie Crunch contains 16g of protein for 190 calories, and the Raspberry Truffle flavor has 17g protein for 180 calories! What! (Bonus, they are also high in fiber)

They seem to have something for everyone (some of these have less protein):

Diabetic? Try the sugar-free Smarte Carb range (higher protein and lower carb!!).

Allergic to gluten, soy, or milk? Vegan? There's the NuGo Free for you!

Only eat organic food? Surprise surprise, there is an organic range as well (which is also vegan).

Flavor-wise, there is seemingly endless variety: Peanut Butter Chocolate, Dark Mint Chocolate Chip, Dark Chocolate Pretzel, for chocolate haters there's Orange SmoothieCarrot cake... Omg.
