What makes a good bar?  It's pointless to have a bar with all the essential Nutritional Content, but tastes so bad you cannot stomach another bite!  Protein bars don’t taste like candy bars! and it's certainly the kind of taste you have to get used to, but they are very healthy and convenient alternatives to a meal or protein drink. A good bar should have a good nutritional profile, high in quality protein, moderately low in carbohydrates, sugar and saturated fat. The Nutrients test will score as follows: 1 - No beneficial nutritional content whatsoever 2 - Bar has very little nutritional value 3 - Not bad 4 - Bar has below average nutritional content 5 - Average nutritional content 6 - Ok - Bar has above average nutritional content 7 - Good nutritional content 8 - Very good nutritional content 9 - Excellent nutritional content 10 - This bar has it all!  The Taste Test will look for good, rich flavor, good texture and good overall size. Those bars with bitter aftertastes or a sticky texture that sticks to the wrapper will lose points.
