When to Choose Orgain Organic Protein Bar Chocolate Brownie

Budget-conscious organic shoppers who want a clean certified bar at the lowest price

Orgain delivers USDA Organic certification at a price point (~$1.50/bar) that makes clean eating accessible. The ingredient list is genuinely clean with only 4g sugar. The obvious limitation is 10g protein — this is more of a healthy snack than a serious protein source. Unbeatable value for organic quality.

Strengths

  • USDA Organic certified at an incredibly affordable ~$1.50/bar — best value organic option
  • Clean ingredient list with no artificial sweeteners, colors, or preservatives
  • Only ~4g sugar per bar from organic sources

Limitations

  • Only 10g protein per bar — the lowest protein content in this entire comparison
  • Organic plant protein has lower bioavailability than whey or egg white
  • Lower protein may not satisfy those using bars as a primary protein source

When to Choose RXBAR Chocolate Sea Salt

Whole-food advocates who want the simplest possible ingredient list with real food only

RXBAR pioneered the "No B.S." movement in protein bars — every ingredient is listed on the front of the package. Egg whites, dates, nuts. That's basically it. The trade-off is 12g sugar from dates and modest 12g protein. For whole-food purists, the simplicity is unmatched.

Strengths

  • Famously minimal ingredient list (6-8 items) printed right on the front of the package
  • Egg white protein provides excellent bioavailability with complete amino acid profile
  • Zero artificial sweeteners, sugar alcohols, or processed additives of any kind

Limitations

  • 12g sugar per bar from dates — natural source but highest sugar in this comparison
  • Only 12g protein per bar is on the lower end for a protein bar
  • Date-based sweetness creates a dense, chewy texture that some find too heavy
