Though I'm not a strict Zone adherent, I am addicted to these bars. They have a nice, crunchy texture, come in lots of interesting flavors, and are loaded with protein and vitamins. They're also relatively low in sugar -- at least compared with other nutrition bars, which can pack as much as 10 teaspoons of sugar.

My favorite flavor is the lemon, though I understand many think it has an artificial taste. I also like the Chocolate Peanut Butter and Chocolate Caramel Cluster, which tastes like a variety of girl scout cookies I used to love. I find the Strawberry Yogurt entirely too sweet.

These bars taste so good I can forgive some of the nutritional weaknesses: namely that they're high in sodium and saturated fat (4 g) and contain lots of quesionable, albeit natural ingredients such as palm kernel oil and corn syrup. I also wish the bars contained a few grams of fiber.

Bottom line: these bars are a great way to satisfy a sweet tooth as part of an overall healthy diet.

I eat a lot of protein bars, well a lot of the balanced nutrition bars, meaning I don't eat things like Cliff or Luna bars because they have too much sugar. That being said, the Lemon Yogurt Zone Perfect bar is probably the best tasting bar of all the low sugar choices. Give it a try, you'll like it.
