From all of those I love Kong. It seems like it has a better source of carbs. The others taste just like a candy bar.

Speaking of bars, I know they are a horrible replacement for a meal but I just tried the new EAS bar (sample) and it is just killer good.

Where are you purchasing yours from? I have yet to come across those new EAS bars but I have heard good things. The KONGS are legit too

I'll purchase bars from bulknutrition every once in awhile or sometimes my local walmart will have some sort of protein bars for cheap (although they taste like crap) I want to find a place to get them for $0.10 a bar now too :P

EAS was giving out samples at SND, which I HATE. I live in canada.

Each time I go to Popeye's I always get free bars, customer service and staff knowledge is great.

I am just looking to find bars like Kong at a good price, to me its my cheat meal/candy. I think I deserve it.

After I became the assistant manager at Eckerd, I was doing the date check and found about 100 protein bars, Met-RX brand that was out of date. I only at half of them because it was the old kid bars, and their taste is not that appealing. I finally threw them away when I emptied my supplement cabinet. I never got food poisoning or anything of that sort, so my advice would be to go ahead and buy it unless its out of date by a year or so.

It's just a sell by date. I'd eat them unless they were years past due.

I'd be careful not to consume too many of the Detour bars because they use hydrogenated oils which become transsaturated fat. Not to mention tests run on them show they don't have as much protein, contain more carbs, and they contain more fat than their labels claim. They are also LOADED with sugar.
