When to Choose No Cow Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip Protein Bar
Vegan macro-counters who want high protein and low sugar without dairy
No Cow achieves an impressive 20g protein with 1g sugar in a fully vegan bar. The brown rice and pea protein blend provides decent (though not complete) amino acids. The allulose sweetener is natural but its classification remains debated. Strong macros for the plant-based category.
Strengths
- 20g plant protein with only 1g sugar — one of the best macro profiles among vegan bars
- Dairy-free and vegan with brown rice and pea protein blend
- No artificial sweeteners — uses allulose, a naturally occurring rare sugar
Limitations
- Allulose classification is debated — technically a rare sugar, not a traditional sweetener
- No major third-party certifications for purity or banned substance testing
- Some consumers report a slight aftertaste from the allulose sweetening

Budget buyers who want the most protein per dollar and are not concerned about artificial sweeteners
Pure Protein wins on value — 20g protein at ~$1.33/bar is the cheapest protein per gram in this comparison. The whey blend is effective. But sucralose and likely artificial flavors earn it some of the lowest ingredient scores. This is the bar for those who count macros and dollars, not ingredient labels.
Strengths
- Best value in this comparison at ~$1.33/bar with 20g protein per bar
- Whey protein blend provides good bioavailability and complete amino acids
- Widely available at nearly every grocery store, convenience store, and pharmacy
Limitations
- Contains sucralose — a controversial artificial sweetener penalized in our scoring
- Likely contains artificial flavors alongside the sucralose sweetening
- Minimal transparency about sourcing, testing, or manufacturing practices
