For context my trainer has spent 8 months telling me that every protein bar I eat is "glorified candy." He is correct and I hate him for it.
Last week I walk into the gym and he's eating something that looks like a chocolate fudge. I call him a hypocrite. He hands me a piece without saying anything.
It was incredible. Dense, dark chocolate, slightly chewy, rich as hell.
He then shows me the macro breakdown: 31.9g protein, 7.74g fibre, 1.45g sugar.
I stared at him. He stared at me.
"This is different," he said.
It's from a Bangalore brand called Better & Sweet. They call the product Dark Matters which is the most dramatic name for a fudge and I respect it completely. Real whey concentrate, rolled oats, cocoa. No soy protein, no maltitol, no ingredient list that requires a chemistry degree.
They even have the lab report on their website if you're the type to check (I am the type to check).
Ordered a pack of 5. My trainer asked me to send him the link. Full circle.
