Hello, donphiltrodt-ga!
After an initial search which yielded no results, I opted for a visit
to my local natural foods grocery store which has a wide variety of
high-protein bars. I came home with only one option that did not
contain soy protein! But when I went online to find out where to order
the Biochem Bar, the "BodyBuilding.com website popped up. It contains
a large list of high protein bars complete with nutritional breakdown!
I scrolled through each one to find a number of bars with high protein
content minus the soy (although some contain small amounts of soy
lecithin, which is different from soy protein)
You can order all of the bars from the website which is a big plus.
Several of the bars also have a decent variety of flavors which you
see under each link.
My list starts with the bar I found at my local store. Since I
personally picked out the Biochem Bar at the store, I felt responsible
for performing a "taste test." As one who has consumed a large variety
of protein bars during long, mountain bike trips, I must say I have to
rate it at "uugghhhh" level. Powdery, tasteless and only to be
consumed under desperate conditions! But, tastes vary, and you might
love it!!
