For the purposes of this review, we’ll consider a Mars bar to be virtually the same thing as a US Milky Way bar. I’ll give my honest thoughts on each individual bar, but I will say this: overall, the UK versions of these bars are significantly better than the US version. Other Ingredients:Protein Blend (19%) ( MILK Protein Isolate, MILK Protein, WHEY [MILK] Protein Concentrate (from MILK), Emulsifier ( SOYA Lecithin)), MILK Chocolate (15%) (Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Skimmed MILK Powder, Cocoa Mass, LACTOSE and Protein from WHEY [MILK] (from MILK), Palm Fat, WHEY [MILK] Powder (from MILK), MILK Fat, Emulsifier ( SOYA Lecithin E476), Natural Vanilla Extract), Hydrolysed Collagen (14%), Caramel (14%) (Sweetened Condensed Skimmed MILK, Glucose Syrup, Invert Sugar Syrup, Palm Oil, Butter (from MILK), Sugar, Emulsifier (E471), Stabiliser (Pectin), Salt, Natural Flavouring), Humectant (Maltitol), PEANUTS (10%), Humectant (Glycerol), PEANUT Flour, Fructo-Oligosaccharide, Natural Flavouring ( PEANUT), Salt, Colour (Plain Caramel), Antioxidant (Natural Mixed Tocopherols.All opinion expressed is author's own, does not constitute dietary advice or official recommendation, and is entirely subjective. If you were to do a blind taste test, I don’t think you’d be able to tell that this was a protein bar (minus the chewiness, of course). The Mars bar exists across the globe as the same candy bar… except in the US, where we call it a Milky Way. The US did have its own Mars bar at some point, but it has since been discontinued. Full disclosure: I’ve never had a Mars bar. From what I understand, the Mars bar is to candy bars as Football is to sports.

I mean, if you can take one of the best candy bars out there and infuse it with protein, it will be an absolute game-changer in the protein bar market. Upon breaking the bar open, no soft & gooey caramel was revealed. Instead, just a hardened layer of caramel that you could peel apart from the “nougat” underneath.Ingredients: Milk Protein Blend (Milk Protein Concentrate, Milk Protein, Whey Protein Concentrate (Milk)), Milk Chocolate (Sugar, Cocoa Butter, Skimmed Milk Powder, Cocoa Mass, Lactose and Protein from Whey (Milk), Palm Fat, Whey Powder (Milk), Milk Fat, Emulsifiers (Soya Lecithin, Polyglycerol Polyricinoleate), Vanilla Extract) (15%), Hydrolysed Collagen, Roasted Peanuts (12%), Caramel (Sweetened Condensed Skimmed Milk (Skimmed Milk, Sugar), Glucose Syrup, Invert Sugar Syrup, Palm Oil, Butter (Milk), Sugar, Emulsifier (Mono and Diglycerides of Fatty Acids), Stabiliser (Pectin), Salt, Natural Flavouring) (11%), Humectants (Maltitol, Glycerol), Peanut Flour, Flavourings (Peanuts, Milk), Fructo-Oligosaccharides, Sunflower Oil, Salt, Colour (Plain Caramel), Antioxidant (Tocopherol-Rich Extract).

Sure, it contains peanuts and somewhat of a caramel flavor, but it doesn’t eat at all like a candy bar.This product is not intended to be a meal replacement and should be consumed as part of a healthy diet. This bar tastes very similar to a very generic chocolate & peanut butter protein bar, but with a crisp from the puffed rice on top. Mars Incorporated is driven by the belief that the world we want tomorrow starts with how we do business today. As a global, family-owned business, Mars is transforming, innovating, and evolving to make a positive impact on the world. When this Mars Hi Protein bar is viewed through that lens, it’s actually really good! Like the other bars I tried, it is definitely on the dense side, so it is overall chewier than a Milky Way. To make it even more confusing, the Milky Way bar exists in other parts of the world, but it’s much more similar to the US version of a 3 Muskateers bar. Talk about confusing!
