When to Choose GoMacro MacroBar Peanut Butter Chocolate Chip
Organic purists who prioritize whole food ingredients and clean certifications above protein content
GoMacro is the gold standard for ingredient purity in the protein bar space. USDA Organic, C.L.E.A.N. certified, and made entirely from whole food ingredients. The trade-off is modest protein (11g) and higher sugar from organic sources. If ingredient quality matters more than macros, this is the bar to beat.
Strengths
- USDA Organic and C.L.E.A.N. certified with all whole food ingredients
- Zero artificial sweeteners, sugar alcohols, or preservatives of any kind
- Organic peanut butter and brown rice protein from traceable sources
Limitations
- Only 11g protein per bar — among the lowest in this comparison
- Higher sugar content (~10g) compared to low-sugar competitors
- Premium price at ~$3.21/bar makes it one of the most expensive options
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
