the flavor is there, but what about protein besides lentils, chickpeas, cheese and milk?
how are these different than consuming seeds and nuts directly? eg walnuts, sunflower, peanuts etc
Almonds and whey protein might be a better choice than the crickebar.
Tell me a better/cheaper protein source.
unless its oats and you need carbs
(relatively) high protein content?
It's really expensive. Would eating natto work?
That stuff is expensive and oats, protein powder, avocado oil, eggs are cheaper.
This or bran cereal are both good options in my experience. Just make sure to watch for how much sugar is in it; some brands will sneak in sugar even in granola.
It's why I eat steel cut oatmeal, no sugar.
