Where to purchase??
www.lowcarbgrocery.com has lots of protein bars and powder. And I think shipping is only $12 or so. Comes very quickly and they're fabulous! Lots of great stuff on their site. I buy from them all the time.
Good luck!

Just a word of caution on these. Although they are very popular, I would use this sparingly. Click has a lot of carbs. Protein bars are also not optimal for losing. I've seen a lot of people say that they have slowed down their weight loss.
Quest is currently being sued as well for having inaccurate nutritional info.
Even at 7.5 years out when I'm trying to lose, I avoid protein bars. Just be cautious. They should be more for emergency than a staple.

My favorite one stop shop for Davinci syrups, protein bars, sugar free sauces etc is Low Carb Canada. If you are in Toronto, they have a store you can actually go TO if you dont want to wait for shipping. However, they also ship for about $8 - $10....pretty reasonable =).

Have you tryed the quest bars before? I have ordered 4 different bars from 'the low carb grocery' and found them disgusting (nice that you can order single bars).
I prefer 'The Simply Bar' sold at Zerhs... I don't use them often maybe once or twice a week when I am on the go.

I have only tried one quest bar the White chocolate raspberry one....it was delish....probably because I can't eat sugar at all and this was the closest thing to a dessert I had had in forever, lol However....I do find them VERY dense (heavy). Think it's good for like a bite here and a bite there throughout the day. Don't think I could eat one or half even...all at once. BUT if you haven't tried the white chocolate raspberry...try it, it's pretty good =)
