So what are your thoughts on protein bars? Have not yet tried any, any brands that don't cause havoc with your Bg? X

i take them occasionally, though they are very expensive for what you get in terms on protein.
depending on where i am and if its near insulin time, i try aim for a low carb high protein bar? or a normal carbs bar/protein if i will do some insulin to counter.
whats the reason? you could try protein shake with just water for zero/negligible carbs?

Had them now and again, expensive for what you get protein wise 15-30g typically.
Also loaded with sweeteners, chemicals and sugars.
Rather a tin of tuna washed down with a glass of full-fat milk.
Think whole foods are always better than the supplements, just takes a bit more preparation.
