Considering the ingredients, I wouldn't be surprised if a relatively large portion of the protein came from the almonds and chocolate. I never understood why people eat this crap when it's so easy to get protein from simple, natural sources.

Yep. Eggs. Milk. Protein powder. Even cheese.

Protein bars are nice when you're on-the-go though.

Am I wrong, or is "one of these things, not like the other"?

What is "protein powder" (made from)? To me it seems like the odd one out? (I'm not saying you shouldn't eat protein powder, but -- it is made from something, right -- most likely(?) powdered egg whites?)

Usually whey or soy. I've seen hemp and other plant sources, too.
