Protien Bars

The bars I bought have 5g of saturated fat, is it wise to only eat them after a workout because the 5g of saturated fat or does it really matter

Eating fat PWO is pointless...

IMO, protein bars have little, to no, place in a properly constructed diet approach... so many other better, and more affordable, options...

Bars should only be used when your in a jam or literally have no time to get something else...how much sugar is in it? I personally stay away from bars as many here do....nothing more than glorified candy bars that cost twice as much and taste half as good....just my thoughts though.

I thought it would not matter as much considering your muscles are so hungry they will eat it up know problem, why is it talked about so much in all muscle mag ads.

Fat PWO is counterproductive....
You want to ingest a fast absorbing carb (high g.i. like dex) and protein...
Fat would slow the absorption.... bad idea...

Also, as the others have mentioned, they are talked about in order to make a buck... same as Nitro- & Cell-tech...
