There has been a lot of information available the past few years about health, nutrition and our food products. One of the products growing in popularity is protein and meal replacement bars & shakes. I have searched everywhere and found out just about everything one would want to know except two things.

1. Practical use as an emergency storage and survival food.
2. Actual taste test done to compare brands and flavors.

I didn't think it should be that hard to find out, but apparently it is. You would think with the millions of people that want to give their opinion on the internet about stupid crap, someone would have answered these two questions. Well we are planning to do just that. We are trying a different brand every week with several flavor choices. The only thing we won't know is actual storage life, as we will not be storing them for a few years before trying them. I guess that will be "The Great Protein Bar & Shake Experiment Part 2"!

Every review will end with a "Would We Eat It" rating.
1 - I can't even use it to bait a trap for some real food.
2 - You can live off it but it taste like crap.
3 - Ok, start looking for someone who might trade it for some stale beef jerky.
4 - Pretty good, don't mind eating it in an emergency for a while.
5 - Yea! This thing is great, can I have it everyday!
