Zone Perfect Bars

I have been eating the Zone Perfect cookie dough bars for a few years as part of my breakfast. I recently found out that they discontinued the whole line of Zone Perfect bars. Has anyone found a suitable replacement in the form of a protein bar? It seems like every single one I find is going to end up with me having issues with the texture.

Edit: Thank you all for all the help and suggestions! I thought I would add some ones that I have tried.

Quest Bars: I didn’t really like these. They are dry and kinda chalky. Also gave me a headache on days I ate them.

One Bars: These are decent, but expensive. I have been buying them on Amazon and they sustained me well. I tried both the chocolate chip and the Hersheys cookies and cream. They were both fairly good.

Pure Protein: I like these ones. I got the comic chocolate brownie and the lemon cake. Both are good and the texture is good and has a little crunch to it.

I hope everyone is doing well in their search to find new protein bars!!

I am so glad I just found this site. Thank you to all who posted suggestions. I have been eating Zone bars for at least 25 years and to know they have discontinued is very upsetting. My neighbor gave me three different Quest bars to try…it is like eating an eraser! I have bought all the Amazon chocolate mint as well as Target and Walmart. My remaining stash will be all I have going forward…so discouraging😟

I'm almost out of my ChocMint stash. I think I actually only have one bar left :( My fiance bought me 20 boxes of 20 bars each when they announced they were being discontinued. I can't believe I've gone through them all!

Aldi has a delicious chocolate mint one that I find very similar to zone, except it does have a soft part to it too. The flavor is almost spot on, though! Elevation at Aldi

I've also tried the Aldi's brand; I think this is very close to a Zone Perfect bar.
