I checked the bars website and they say it delivers 19% more energy that all others...has anyone else out there heard about or tried these?
Those Hooah bars are a load of crap (or may cause a load of crap depending - I saw that other post about bowel problems
). If you look at the ingredients in them, they're not any better than Clif Bar for example, and they don't use any ingredients that are better at providing "more" energy. There was another discussion among some sports nutritionists and RD's, and we all came to the same conclusion. But I'd say it's just what you said in your post above - "hype"
