Good to know... thanks for the warning.  I'll be sure to stock up on matches before bed. LOL

I might just take some now... since I am already having a little gasiness or something since I ate it.  Thanks for the suggestion.

I get the peanut butter chocolate Pure protein bars at Walmart . Mine are 20 grams of protein & 6 grams of sugar alcohols . I am sensitive to Malitol , but these don't bother me .

Are they good?  I love chocolate and peanut butter... but I tried a chocolate peanut butter swirl protein shake from Spiru-tein and it is so bad I can hardly stand it.  I'd love to find some protein bars that taste good and that I can handle.  How much are they at Walmart?  Can you buy them individually or only in a case?

I bought a single one at Safeway & liked it . So , I bought a box of them at Walmart . They are like $ 6 something for 6 of them , I think . I like them , alot . They are chewy & filling . I can't stant the gritty granola type protein bars , like Luna .

Ohhhhh ok! I've never seen the big bars!! I have only seen the smaller version at Walmart or Meijer (Midwest chain) but I like them a lot!

Have you taken your vitamins today?

I might have to check those out.  20g of protein is a good amount.  I can't really eat the whole thing at one time anyway, so a smaller bar might be better for me.  How much are they at Wally World?

I am very sensitive to sugar alcohols.  Intestinally.

They cause painful gas.

Eating too much can have a laxative effect.  I may have heard of a few RNYers dumping from sugar alcohols.  Not too many though.

I refuse to eat the pure protein or the Oh yeah! bars because of the sugar alcohols.  Waaayyy too sensitive and not a fan of gas.  I like the power crunch bars, but they are kinda high fat, might not be appropriate for all surgery types.  I love em straight out of the fridge.  Haven't tried them frozen yet.  I'll try that tomorrow.

I see a lot of them with a lot of fat.  The Oh Yeah have too much fat for my diet.  If I eat one of those, that is about half of my daily calories and over half of my fat for the day.  I can only eat about 1/3 of it at a time anyway though. 

I'm not a fan of gas either... it can be really painful!  There aren't too many things I can't eat though... brocolli and more than a couple bites of frozen yogurt (and ice cream too I am sure).  Pretty much everything else I have tried I CAN eat... but most of it I don't just because I need to save room for my protein.  Precious space in my tummy.  Fortunately I am making better choices and it is really paying off.
