We put together a site for protein bars that meet two criteria: gluten free and at least 10 grams of protein. Besides showing you what’s out there and where to buy with a discount, we also read through reviews from several websites and blogs and compile our findings in our review, so that you get a much better idea of how nutritious or tasty these bars really are.

One easy and inexpensive way to promote their bars is to take advantage of many online stores that offer user ratings. That’s why usually the first few comments have a perfect score and rave review (Best bar I’ve ever eaten, greatest flavor on earth). You’ll also notice that whenever real consumers share mediocre or even bad reviews, the manufacturers usually do damage control by adding more excellent reviews to save the overall rating for their bars. | Read more…
