After reading the nutrition drinks thread, does anyone believe that eating protein bars after a workout, specifically during that "recovery window" is beneficial, or am I just buying into society's fad trap?
I have had the Powerbar Protein Power and I'm not sure if its good to eat afterwards or not. What do you think? Should I be eating this if I am trying to lose weight?

Here is what you get when you eat a regular chocolate bar. Pick your bar and enjoy. I can buy them on sale 2 for a buck.
