Default another protein bar question.....

Sorry for asking this again....

I have been getting Lunas...(yum yum..right Jillian!) but for some reason my local stores are getting short them in the order.....

the Kashi's are
78gm
calories 290
fat 6g
sodium 280mcg
potassium 250mg
total carb 48gm
fiber 6g
sugars 31g
protein 13g

my question is this:
should i just eat one half of the bar in exchange for one la lite or luna?
these were all i could find at walmart or superstore...
thanks Mizzt

Forgive a disingenuous question, but very how different is that from a Snickers bar?

Cal: 280
Fat: 14g
Sodium: 140 mg
Carb: 35g
Fiber: 1 g
Sugars: 30g
Protein: 4g

Snickers have double the fat and 1/3 the protein.

The Slim-Fast Meal Replacement Bars are also very close to the Lites and the Lunas in terms of nutritional value. Those are usually pretty easy to find. I've also found that some of the South Beach Bars have similar nutritionals to the soups and drink mixes.

I do the Lites, but at this point, I need the variety.
