Bars, designed by you? www.youbars.com
I made my own nutrition bars. Seriously.
At this website. Huh? Well, at You Bar, you get to choose your healthy ingredients, and Build-A-Bar.
I had way too much fun adding, removing, re-adding ingredients, and calculating calories. I got a box-o-MeltingMamaMade bars.
I don't want to tell you what combination of ingredients I picked, because I apparently have no bar-building skills, and my MM designed bars weren't good. BUT, the company sent along samples of their more popular blends (Not MM-Made!) and they are delish! My bars, not-so-delish. I know what the problem was, I didn't use any sweeteners, natural or otherwise, and I used mostly nut butters as a base, and I do not like nut butters. I'm an idiot, and my bars are icky. The remedy for this? I can totally send these back and get another box on them - because I am a poor judge of ingredients. They guarantee the bars. Although, my husband liked the bars I designed, and has eaten two of them, deeming them, "really good, but, filling." I won't be sending them back, but I could. I may try again though - making a few changes - because the bars came super-fast, fresh and how cool is make-your-own anything, right?!
I checked out the site....the bar I made (ok well 2 bars) 1st one was 238 cal and 13g protein 2nd had 237 cal and 9g protein....I would totally suck ass if I did that for a living
