A poor little rich boy is all I can say!
If he is feeling so unchallenged and wants "skin in the game" then give away all your money and start again.
But he won't, no one can, once you've got a taste for the good life..
Btw, the RX bar tastes awful.
- Invictus0 7y agoMy theory is that the people buying the energy bars prefer that they taste like shit to make themselves feel more hardcore about whatever dieting philosophy du jour they abide by.
- misiti3780 7y agothey are a good snack right before you lift weights ... they do taste like shit but who cares
- solotronics 7y agoBusiness idea: rX bar that doesnt taste like shit.
- umeshunni 7y agoMost of those involve adding copious amounts of sugar to make the bars taste bearable. This, of course, has other health negatives. I've seen protein bars with 50+ grams of sugar in them!
- urban_strike 7y agoI mean, RxBars are full of dates, which are basically pure sugar.
- mywittyname 7y agoCut out three of the ingredients from each bar. 4 Cashews, No BS 1 Egg, No BS 2 Dates, No BS
- sharadov 7y agoWhy not just drink a protein shake straight up mixed with water then? More protein for a lesser amount of carbs.
- misiti3780 7y agoi guess for me it's just easier to buy an rx bar on the way to the gym. i also do not like consuming protein in liquid form

- abawany 7y agoI happen to like RxBars quite a bit and was upset when they had to do that peanut-allergy-related recall a few months ago. My palette is probably unsophisticated but the taste of dates dominates the flavor and I don't mind that at all.
- pbhjpbhj 7y agoI can believe that, IIRC research shows that placebos work better if they taste bad (also if they're red?).
- sharadov 7y agoI've not come across a single protein bar that tastes good - I'd rather make a smoothie ( not convenient I know!), or why not just eat jerky ( not vegan/vegetarian-friendly, but for the meat-eaters there are some awesome flavors out there!).
