I was wondering about the new Novus bars, and I have some general questions about protein bars.

I have historically avoided protein bars because I kept reading that they were filled with junk and... well... "filler." Then again, I also read that eating solid foods is better than drinking your nutrition, thereby implying that a protein bar would be better than a protein drink. Regardless, I love the idea of eating them for sheer convenience.

So what's the verdict on these Novus bars? Are they, despite their seemingly good nutrition stats, nutritionally sound? And are they better than protein powders?

Thanks all!

Novus bars are more of an alternative to regular food or a high protein snack. I think that is their best use.
