Keto Friendly Meal Replacement Bars

We all have found ourselves unprepared at lunch (or supper!).   I know I certainly have.   I usually pack a lunch to take with me to work.   I work as a sales rep and I am in my car in different towns each day, so I usually eat in my car.   It does make it very easy to stick to my Healthy Ketogenic eating plan.  However, some days I find myself unprepared.  Either I have meetings that lasted longer than I intended or I ran out of items I planned on packing for lunch.  It happens, LOL.   I keep a few meal replacement bars in my car for those situations (until it gets too hot to do so, as they will melt) and they have saved me several times.  When I travel, I put a few in my purse or my carry-on, to avoid expensive and unhealthy airport eating.  Ugh!  

The past work week I did an informal trial of various Keto Friendly Meal Replacement Bars and ranked them according to taste and according to how long I stayed satisfied from them.   In order they were:

Taste:
Atkins Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (3G Net Carbs, 13G Protein)
Atkins Peanut Butter Bar (3G Net Carbs, 16G Protein)
Quest S’Mores (4G Net Carbs, 21 G protein)
Slimfast Whiipped Peanut Butter Chocolate (3G Net Carbs, 7G Protein)
Bulletproof Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (9G Net Carbs, 12G Protein)

Satisfied the Longest/Best:
Quest S’Mores (4G Net Carbs, 21 G protein)
Atkins Peanut Butter Bar (3G Net Carbs, 16G Protein)
Atkins Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (3G Net Carbs, 13G Protein)
Slimfast Whiipped Peanut Butter Chocolate (3G Net Carbs, 7G Protein)

Bulletproof Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough (9G Net Carbs, 12G Protein)

Honorable Mention:
Hands down the winner in taste was the Atkins Chocolate Caramel Mousse Bar.  It is a snack bar, not a meal replacement bar, or it would be the winner!  This bar is NO JOKE!  It seriously tastes like a Milky Way!  Better than a Milky Way even!  Unbelievably good!  

What is your favorite meal replacement bar and what do you like about it?
