Also, generally speaking, you need fat to emulsify large quantities of protein. I do agree with you that these bars are pretty high in fat content, but if you are doing an activity that warrants that much caloric intake (such as bike touring or winter hiking) they would be good at giving you energy and aiding in the rebuilding of sore muscles.

yeah it depends on the use really. the longer you are out the more fat is needed obviously. there aren't any trans fats, which is great. but there is 6g of saturated fats.

A good energy bar will be high in fat. Fat is essential to fueling long duration workouts because its incredibly high calorie density makes it one of the the most efficient ways to provide energy to the body.
