“OMG! I can’t wait to eat this nutrition bar instead of real food!” — said no one ever. And, yet, here we are, still buying all sorts of meal replacement bars for all these years, dating back to when they first started in the 1950s. So this week, Kirk and Lindsey break out the bars, talking about best/worst brands, best/worst flavors, are bars even worth it, why we all get rope-a-doped into buying nutrition bars in the first place, and finally, debating whether all these newfangled bars are just candy bars in disguise.
