When you need a serious dose of protein, chewy Vanilla Yogurt flavored PowerBar Protein Plus High Protein bars will sate your cravings.

 High quality TriSource protein has amino acids and provide a superior protein boost. View larger. |
Made with high-quality proteins--not junk proteins like hydrolyzed collagen or gelatin that lack essential amino acids needed to repair muscle and stimulate growth--it's no mystery why hard-working athletes choose Powerbar Protein Plus high protein bars to supplement their protein reserves before and after grueling workouts.
Each soft, chewy bar also contains 16 vitamins and minerals, five grams of branched chain naturally-occurring amino acids, and 22-23 grams of simple and 14-15 grams of complex carbohydrates to help replenish glycogen stores after exercise.
Enjoy the Variety
In addition to the extra protein these bars offer, they come in three other delicious flavors to tempt your palate: Chocolate Peanut Butter, Chocolate Crisp, and Cookies and Cream.

THE POWERBAR PROTEINPLUS STORY.
The PowerBar Protein Plus high protein bar was developed according to the needs of world class athletes and others who want a convenient, great tasting source of high quality protein. As with other PowerBar products, PowerBar ProteinPlus is a tool for athletes to use along with a balanced diet to achieve optimum performance.
THE POWERBAR STORY.
PowerBar was founded after world class marathon runner Brian Maxwell ran out of energy while leading a race. As a result, Brian and his nutritionist wife Jennifer created the PowerBar® Performance™ energy bar. Since then, PowerBar products have been used to set numerous world records and win hundreds of world and national championships and are now distributed in over 30 countries. PowerBar has earned the trust of athletes and has become synonymous with nutrition, energy and optimum performance.

Good but...
I am a power bar addict and I absolutely LOVE this one... However, the vanilla flavor adds to (rather than takes away from...) the typically "cardboard" flavor of a Power Bar. Oddly enough, this doesn't bother me! The vanilla is so sweet (and I am an admitted sugar addict) that it really does control that need for snacking. I usually split the bar... one half before my workout and one half after. I do agree that you MUST have water with one of these bars. It will sit like a ton of bricks in your stomach without the water. All in all, this bar is great. I can easily get through a long day or a tough workout with one of these.
Surpisingly Disappointed
I purchased these protein bars to save money from the price I normally pay for them. They came from Amazon and not a third party seller. This was my first time ordering from Amazon and was disappointed in this item only! Unfortunately, they were extremely stale. I looked at the expiration date on the product and it was fine, however, I think these items were frozen and thawed out or they sat in a very warm area of a warehouse and dried out beyond tastefullness! I had a few other people who always eat these try them and they said they were not good AT ALL! I will not order food type items from you again, but will definitely keep shopping at Amazon.com. It's great otherwise! Keep up the good work on your prices, items and service. I would take a look at your food storage though.
New Protein Plus Power Bars
The new and "improved" Protein Plus PowerBars are much drier than they were before though they are easier to chew (as advertised). Plus one gram less of protein than before.
