Cliff Bar makes a really yummy 270 calorie high protein bar with 20 grams of protein -- I keep a few of those and a few lower calorie snack-sized bars by Balance, Slim Fast, etc. in my car ALL the time so that I don't get caught out without a high protein snack/meal option. That said, however, I try not to use the bars as a crutch too much, because I generally try to eat less sugar and more whole/healthy foods. However, almost every fast food restaurant offers a salad with grilled chicken, and you can just ignore that dressing packet or use just a tiny bit. I've also been known to pack a whole wheat turkey sandwich and an apple and a baggie of veggies and I'm good to go.
