3 favorite Costco protein bars

I’m at @Costco to show you my 3 favorite protein bars available here.

1️⃣ @officialpureprotein bars – passes the test and has the taste. My issue with it is that it contains hydrolyzed collagen which is a form of protein but it doesn’t cause muscle protein synthesis. This bar also only contains ~1g of fiber and I’d like to see more.

2️⃣ @simplyprotein bars – passes the test and has a whopping 7g of fiber. My issue with this bar is that it does lack in the taste department.

3️⃣ Kirkland (@costco) protein bars – passes the test, has a ton of fiber, and tastes very similar to @questnutrition protein bars. As long as you can get passed the firm texture, these are my top choice!
