In general, I don't like energy bars, but I do like LUNA bars. Yes, I know they are the "whole nutrition bar for women."

really the only difference between a luna bar and a normal energy bar is thats its just less calorie. There really isnt anything women specific about it. Its just that women generally weigh less than men, so they burn less calories during a workout. So say I burn 800 calories in an hour on a bike ride, and eat a 260 calorie powerbar, and a girl does the same ride but only burns 500 calories (because she weighs less) and eats the same 260 calorie power bar. shes left with a much smaller calorie deficit, which means it takes her longer to lose weight. So they made the "luna" bar for this purpose. basically its all marketing.

Powerbars are gross. Cliff bars are they way to go if you want an energy bar (I dunno anything about protien bars, as I dont eat those).
