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
When to Choose think! High Protein Bar Brownie Crunch
Budget shoppers who want zero sugar and high protein without sucralose specifically
think! bars achieve 0g sugar and 20g protein without resorting to sucralose — a meaningful distinction from Quest. The trade-off is sugar alcohols, which bring their own digestive concerns. The whey-soy protein blend is effective but the soy inclusion may deter some buyers. Solid budget option.
Strengths
- 20g protein with 0g sugar — achieves zero sugar without artificial sweeteners like sucralose
- Whey protein isolate provides high bioavailability as the primary protein source
- Budget-friendly at ~$2.00/bar with strong macros for the price
Limitations
- Achieves 0g sugar through sugar alcohol technology — impacts digestive tolerance
- Contains soy protein isolate which some consumers prefer to avoid
- No major third-party certifications for purity or banned substances
