The entirely natural protein bar. 20 g Protein. High in protein. No trans fat. 23 Vitamins and minerals. When work feels like a workout. I know that feeling. Throughout high school and well into my twenties, most jobs put my body through the wringer on a daily basis. Back then, I didn’t care about natural ingredients or organic foods; I do now. And that’s the principle behind our Builder’s Bar. It’s an entirely natural protein bar for those who put their own body through the wringer. The Builder

Great for dieting too,
I know there are a variety of clif bar’s out there…plenty of flavors etc. The chocolate mint happens to be my favorite. Not only is it tasty, but there’s so much protein I eat one of these bars for breakfast every day. At first I still had mild hunger, but once you get into the routine, the hunger goes away- they’re very filling for being as small as they are. They’re not jampacked with a bunch of additives which is nice as well. My husband uses them for the gym but I just use them as part of my daily diet.
I’ve been able to lose a few pounds myself on just the clif bar regimen. I’ve since started taking other supplements (raspberry ketones, green coffee bean extract) to push myself into better weight loss- FREE Raspberry Ketones Powder + Green Coffee Bean Extract Plus Capsules with Svetol!. Between the clif bars and those two, I have been able to drop 6 pounds in the last 2 weeks. My hunger levels are way down- 1 clif at breakfast AND lunch keeps me solid until dinner, and my energy levels are higher too! Since I just started I’m hoping these results continue!

Definitely one of the best tasting protein bars available…,
Plain and simple, these Builder’s Bars are one of the best tasting protein bars you can get. They are crispy and chewy at the same time and they aren’t super sweet like a candy bar. And at 2.4 ounces a piece they are large enough and filling enough to be a meal replacement.
And the one thing that I really like is that when I read the ingredients, I actually know what the stuff is! Nothing weird or unnatural, just real ingredients!
Out of the four flavors available (Chocolate Mint, Peanut Butter, Chocolate, Cookies `n Cream) I prefer the Chocolate Mint and Peanut Butter, mainly because they taste even less like a protein bar. I’m not saying the plain Chocolate and Cookies ‘n Cream are bad tasting, just that I prefer the taste of the Chocolate Mint and Peanut Butter ones (they are all really tasty).
These are just awesome, 100% natural, high protein, real ingredients, and they taste great! I just love them!
A bit of product info:
Vanilla Almond: 39% organic ingredients
Chocolate Mint: 32% organic ingredients
Chocolate: 33% organic ingredients
Cookies `n Cream: 35% organic ingredients
Peanut Butter: 35% organic ingredients
Side note:
Do not buy these expired (like on eBay or in-store)! Since these bars do not contain any preservatives they can loose their freshness and vitamin potency quickly and can develop a simple bread mold. It is recommended that they be eaten within a month of their sell by date (they are guaranteed to be fresh one month passed the sell by date printed on the wrapper).
EDIT: I just bought myself a couple of boxes of the of the new Vanilla Almond flavor and oh my they are mighty tasty. Sometimes you just don’t want a chocolate protein bar and these fit the bill perfectly! And just like the other Builder Bars they are not super sweet, just a perfect balance. That and they contain more organic ingredients then the other Builder Bars (39%).
If chocolate is not your pleasure try the Vanilla Almond bars, you will not be disappointed!

Clif Builder Bar is the Savior,
I’m 26m, 6′ 185 and growing. Work out regularly, mostly weights and basketball. I’m allergic to peanuts, which makes most protein bars off-limits for me. This is the only bar I’ve found where the non-peanut flavors don’t contain trace amounts of peanuts to set off my allergies. Incredible, if for only that reason. But there’s more.
20g of protein. Wow. This can be a meal replacement if you’re on the road or it can be the mid-morning, early-evening or even late-night snack, especially if you’re trying to build lean muscle and shooting for 1.5 or more grams of protein per pound of body weight. It’s an easy 20.
The carbs are real, as another review says. It’s clean energy, to be effective either before or after a workout. I prefer to take in liquid protein after a workout, the body absorbs it faster, but in a pinch this would be a great choice. Beyond that it’s a little crispy and a little chewy, there’s a physical satisfaction from eating it that makes the experience complete. But, as another review said, this isn’t intended to be a diet bar, it is for men & women who work hard and use lots of energy throughout the day, hence the name “Builders Bar.” I guess if you ate half of one instead of a meal, it might work that way.
Finally the taste is outstanding, when stacked against other bars (although I haven’t tried many, due to peanut allergies). If you close your eyes and pretend, it really could be a dessert. I stick to the cookies & cream or chocolate. Chocolate is yummy dunked in hot coffee mid-morning.
I buy a box every two weeks and keep stocked at home, work and oftentimes one in the car just in case I get hungry. Another review said the outside chocolate got crumbly, this is true, if it gets hot and melted. When the things solidify they crumble. Doesn’t change the taste but it’s messy. Keep them cool and you’re in good shape. I’ve even tried putting them in the freezer prior to eating, not bad but no significant difference.
Thank you Clif!
