It seems like every protein bar out there is loaded with saturated fat!! Why the hell won't these companies get creative and start making something that is actually healthy for you...??!!

Mmmm, I always thought they were more full of sugar.

Sweeteners in protein bars are generally sugar alcohols which have no real glycemic response but give you the shits if you eat more than a bar or two.
