Oh Yeah Bars

[Kingdime1332]

Has anyone tried these bars? I absolutely love them, they have real peanuts in them and taste like a candy bar. I used to eat Designer Whey's Zanzibar and really like the nutritional stuff in those but the taste was lacking and it was a bit chewy. I also have tried Chef's Jay's Rage bars and I really think the Oh Yeah bars are so much better.

[ghostwheel]

How much protein in those? How about transfat and calories?

[Kingdime1332]

I believe its 26 grams of protein and no trans fat and somewhere around 380 calories.

[ghostwheel]

OK I am gonna break down and order some. I need new tasting bars for variety.
:)

[Kingdime1332]

Ghost, I'm not sure if you were one of the X-Factor guys but the Oh Yeah bars might have some Flax in it. I would check the ingredients, just to make sure.

[ghostwheel]

No I am not in the X Factor test Group. I didn't want to take the reisk of a system wide inflammatory agent at 40 years old.

I actually try to get Flax oil. Put it in the smoothies, etc.

:)

[Kingdime1332]

Oh ok I wasn't sure. Tell me how you like them.

[Founder]

These bars are great. Much like the original Detour Bars, but with bigger peanuts. Not good for keto diets.

[ghostwheel]

OK got my order in. Will post about how they taste.

[Kingdime1332]

Ghost how you like the bars?

[ghostwheel]

They didn't arrive yet. :(

Things take a bit longer to arrive here in Hawaii, but I will check my order anyway cause i never got a confirming email.

[Kingdime1332]

Oh ok sorry I took that your got your order in meaning it had arrived. I bet you get charged some nasty freight out there too, huh?

[ghostwheel]

Not really ... just 7.95 for mail from DA not too bad.

The bars did arrive today.:D

Will try them out tommorrow for sure and post how they are.

:)

[ghostwheel]

OK they taste GREAT. A nice change from the average protein bar. BIG peanuts. Anyway I need a variety of bars to add to my diet so this will be one of them.

:mrgreen:

[Kingdime1332]

Glad you like them Ghost. I thought they were outstanding also. Too bad I can't eat them anymore, damn X-Factor, haha.

[ghostwheel]

Protein bars are easier to review. You just eat one and say how they taste. You don't have to keep logs and evaluate their effectiveness over a 60 day period.

Hard to get into a flame war over them too.

[Kingdime1332]

Haha yeah. We could start arguing about uhhh....yeah you really can't argue about protein bars.

[ghostwheel]

Wait! Let's work on this.... there has to be something related to protein bars we can argue about. Just give me a bit longer to come up with something. :roll:

[italionstallionl]

i can help you guys out.

the protein in them usually isnt very good quality, neither are the carbs, they are high in fat, and have lots of fillers

(but i still eat them occasionally :wink: )

[ghostwheel]

OK stallion, thanks. I am trying real hard to get worked up and mad about your statement somehow. :)

Maybe an overdose of M1T is required to form rage on this issue.

Were you refering to OH yeah bars specifically or protein bars in general with that comment?

[italionstallionl]

just in general

but imo these are good if you need some extra protein and cals, i havent had any adverse affects from eating them every once in a while

[Kingdime1332]

AHHHHHH, I HATE THAT YOU THINK THE PROTEIN IN THEM IS NOT GOOD QUALITY, WHAT ARE YOU MR. QUALITY CONTROL? FILLERS!!! WHAT ARE FILLERS!!!! THEY AREN'T LISTED IN THE INGREDIENTS.

haha

[italionstallionl]

why do you hate that?

here are some things i am not a fan of that are contained in these bars:

soy protein isolate (second ingredient in the bar)
Hydrolyzed Gelatin
Chocolate Liquor
Maltitol
Cocoa Butter
Sodium Caseinate
Milk Fat
Soy Lecithin
Sugar
Corn Syrup
Maltitol Syrup
Butter
Glycerine

[ghostwheel]

Ok I'll really TRY to get mad about this.


Grrrrr.

[italionstallionl]

but everything in moderation. do i think that eating one of these every once in a while is going to hinder you results. no, not really.

[ghostwheel]

OK NOW I AM MAD! :evil:

But only because i ran out of OH YEAH bars. Chris send more quick!

[Kingdime1332]

Haha Ghost.

[ghostwheel]

Got a new box of OH Yeah bars from DA! Whooyah!

:mrgreen:

[ghostwheel]

Oh Oh.....I am down to my last Oh yeah bar. :?

[italionstallionl]

did anyone check out the tri o pro cookies chris got in

if it wasnt for the soy, they seem to be the best "bars" (i know they are cookies :wink: ) on the market....ingredient wise

[ghostwheel]

No. What company makes em? Are they good? what is the sugar/fat/protein facts and ingredients.

[ghostwheel]

OK now are they good? As good as Oh Yeah bars? :?:

[italionstallionl]

i think i had some at the arnold (cant really remember because i had like 50 different protein cookies) and they were good....if they are what i am thinking of.

i dont think you can really compare a cookie to a baby ruth, i mean oh yeah bar :wink:

[Kingdime1332]

I just bought a box and damn those Oh Yeah bars do not get old. I love 'em.

[ghostwheel]

I was trying to decide whether or not to eat my last Oh yeah bar.

It is now GONE! :(

Oh crap I am out of Oh Yeah bars again! :evil:

[ghostwheel]

OK I am trying some of those Trioplex protein cookies. Ordered today. Also ordered more Oh yeah bars of course. Will let you know how they are when they get here.

I wonder if OH YEAH bars should be considered a basic food group! :lol:

[italionstallionl]

lol

i think you'll like the cookies......hopefully

[ghostwheel]

Ok those Trioplex Oatmeal raisen protein cookies got here. 21 grams of protein is a lot to cram in those little cookies. THey taste good, but OH yeah Bars are still the best by far. There was some delay in getting the cookies because DA didn't have them in stock when I ordered so I had to wait.

Good to have some variety in the choice of protein snacks.

The protein is listed with soy protein isolate first and whey protein isolate second

[italionstallionl]

ghost, i dont know if they carry both kinds of oh yeah bar here, but i picked up 1 bar from my local nut shop to give it a try...it was a peanutbutter coating, with the peanuts and caramel, and a chocolatey center....pretty good

why bother with the "oh yeah" bars. They look like a candy bar by thier nutritional info

[ghostwheel]

Hey wedg, don't be dissin' my oh yeah protein bars! They do have 26 grams of protein and most candy bars don't have that. It is nice to be able to get your protein from a variety of different sources, considering how much protein we have to imbibe.

Thanks for catching that itallion. Good eye! A new flavor of OH YEAH bar is listed here at DA now: http://www.discountanabolics.com/page/DA/PROD/BARS/IS02

Whoooyah!

Time for another order from DA!

[Kingdime1332]

I saw recently that they had a new flavor of Oh Yeah! bars and I tried it only to find it to be good but not near the level of the chocolate. I'm more of a chocolate person though.
