Aren’t protein bars more expensive in the long run compared to beans, rice, lentils, etc. for eating on a budget? Also, don’t protein bars have a bunch of fiber in them too?

To be fair, EVERYTHING is more expensive than beans (50¢ a lb Chicagoland), rice ($33¢ a lb), and broccoli $1 a lb)

On a $/kcal basis they gotta be one of the most overpriced nutrition you can get from like a grocery store. Not only are they highly processed, specialized nutrition that is individually packaged in tiny quantities which makes it naturally expensive, high protein products are also all the rage right now so there’s a massive idiot tax on them.
Not the ones I’ve seen. Maybe energy bars that have oats in them but not protein bars that are most often whey protein, sawdust and artificial flavoring…

Cheaper to make your own protein concoctions with Costco quantities of milk for whey and acid whey. Bonus: byproduct is your choice of a pound of mozzarella or Greek yogurt.
