Detour bars taste awesome!

[blinddeafmute]

Well I had got some designer protien bars because the ones I bought before made me gag. They tasted pretty good and are fairly healthy for a bar.

Well I decided to try some detour bars, they are just like a snickers. I know they have just as many calories as a snickers, but I dont care too much. Because I can actually eat them. Its like a regular protien bar topped with peanuts, caramel, and chocolate. The whey part is just like the nugget of a snickers. Man are they ever good.

Agreed.

Detour Bars are AMAZING. So are MuscleTech's new MesoTech Bars... Triple Layer Peanut Crunch and Triple layer Berry...

I keep getting them at trader joes, but they only have the tiny ones there. I just saw some guy on campus eating a big ass one today, I've been missing out!!

 

[Senior Woonaki]

detours are soooo good - feels like a cheat meal

 

[JKurz1]

cause they are dude............

 

[crmdogg]

yah eating a detour equals eating a snickers bar, seriously, detours are horribly on the nutritional aspect, do not eat them

 

[Senior Woonaki]

cause they are dude............
---DAMN I KNEW IT WAS TOO GOOD TO BE TRUE!!!

 

[JKurz1]

its all good bra - better for ya than a snickers, but def. not a solid source.....its cool to have one every now and again for sanity purposes after a tight workout......but hey, if you're bulking hardcore, have a box!

The U-Turn bars are good as well. Try thm out when you get a chance. Everyone I know who has tried them say it tastes like a Milkyway bar but all I have to say is that it melts in your mouth!!

 

[jenny27]

what do u guys think taste better....detour or uturn? I've had only the detours and they're ok but they're definately not as good as a snickers bar(something about the nouget tastes weird)

 

[Mr. Intensity]

This is my pw meal for today!
DETOUR BAR x 15 (PR!)

 

[Mr. Intensity]

jenny, don't make the mistake of eating anything except a snickers bar!!

 

[Babyfaced Assassin]

cheaper to have a tin of tuna and a snickers

Detour

Detour bars are not that bad. I use them especially in places like the movies. You can't make a shake in the movies or have a real meal. In that circumstance, I bring (sneek) in the Detour bars to make sure that I am getting a meal in every 2.5 hours. Nothing beats food and then if you can't have food then a MRP would be good also but in circumstances where you can't have either is where the Bars come in really handy. Remember it is good to get 1 gram of protein per pound of bodyweight and if you keep this in mind then one bar or even 2 isn't going to hurt you and still you are getting 30 grams of protein per bar.

don't worry...if i'm ever feeling a snickers, snickers it is (since detours aren't that much healthier for u anyways why not have the real thing)

 

[JKurz1]

Jenny - that's a more intelligent reply.......bars are a joke....they've fooled everyone into thinking they are a decent protein source. Mr. Inten - if you eat 15 and you are in decent shape, I'll buy you a box......

Anyone with decent stats (under 10%bf) have a bar and a meal replac. shake together daily? Results?

 

[Babyfaced Assassin]

i treat myself to a bar once a week on cheat days... i find this is good tactic for satisfying candy cravings since i cant afford to buy anything else once i've bought a protein bar!

 

[string_bean00]

All the protein in them is not usuable. They contain collagen/gelatin.

i also forgot to mention that a snickers is 1/3 the price of a detour so another reason for sticking to the real thing (i cant believe how expensive these protein bars are individually)

 

[beefybull]

Bars are really a joke unless you get them free or very very cheap.

What is it, like $2.49 for what basically amounts to a Snickers + a scoop of whey protein... I could see paying $0.99 for a Detour but anything more and you might as well have a shake or something.

YOURBODY, where in Houston do you work out?

 

[easy]

I had to give uo the detour bars cause I ate a case in 5 days. I'm bulking by the way. Looks like more fat than muscle though. Back to clean carbs.

 

[crmdogg]

you can buy 4 snickers for the price of a detour bar, sounds like a plan to me

 

[beefybull]

Word. But the point of it is that:

Detour bars are not a very good or healthy source of protein

I'd personally only reccomend these bars to a hardgainer or someone who is bulking who wants an expensive treat thats basically a protein loaded candy bar.
