Protein bar hot take

Transcript

We do not need more protein bars. How do I feel like there's 20 new ones coming out every single day? All of them now are like, oh, we're made with clean ingredients, higher protein and lower fiber and it'll make you shit sparkle. I'm gonna save you all a lot of time and money. If you want to start a protein bar right now, don't do it. Maybe this isn't a one size fits all statement because I'll say one in every 30 is interesting. But I'm seriously getting protein bar fatigue.
