My Barebells flavor rankings

Trying the @Barebells.USA Taste & Rate box.

The box includes 6 different Barebells flavors and a scorecard to keep track of taste, crisp, softness, gooey-ness, and overall score.

Here is my official flavor ranking of the flavors:

1️⃣ Chocolate Dough
2️⃣ Caramel Cashew
3️⃣ Creamy Crisp
4️⃣ Cookies & Cream

In my experience, Barebells are generally most of my clients’ favorite protein bars so you can’t really go wrong here.

🤳🏻Comment down below what your favorite Barebells flavor is.

***I omitted the Salted Peanut Caramel and Caramel Choco bars because they do not pass The Test.

What is a high protein food?

There is no official definition of what qualifies as a high-protein food.

Around three years ago, I introduced “The Protein Test” on social media. I came up with this simple guideline to help my clients meet their protein needs while staying within their calorie limits.

Here’s how it works with an example using egg whites:

🔘 Each serving contains 5g of protein
🔘 Add a zero to the protein amount: 5g becomes 50
🔘 Check if the product has 50 calories or less per serving
🔘 In this case, egg whites have only 20 calories per serving, so they easily pass The Protein Test

This tool has been helpful for my clients, and I’m happy to see it’s making a positive impact online as well.

Why does restaurant food taste better?

Why does restaurant food taste better? Because of butter, sugar and oil. In the case of steak, it’s because of butter. Steak is never tender by itself- it’s not tender unless it’s prepared in a certain manner.

A normal 6oz sirloin steak would have approximately 250 calories. in the case of a steak prepared at a restaurant, it might have 3 to 4 times as many calories. You need to be aware that the food prepared in a restaurant has more calories than you realize. Plan accordingly.
