Buy the ORGAIN Organic Creamy Chocolate Fudge Shake.

One is built to replace a meal, the other is a tasty bar you still have to eat alongside one.

What was compared

1. Hits your protein goal for less
Orgain packs 16g protein into an 11oz serving for about 2.34 dollars, while Epic's bar gives just 7g for roughly 2.63 dollars. If protein is the point of buying either, the shake delivers more than double for less money every time.
2. Stands in for a meal, not just a bite
Orgain brings 150 calories plus 20 vitamins and minerals and real fruit and vegetable extracts, built to cover a missed breakfast. Epic is a bacon and cranberry snack bar with no vitamin profile, fine between meals but never a meal itself.
3. Cleaner label you can actually trust
Orgain carries full USDA Organic certification, no artificial colors, flavors, sweeteners or preservatives, and no carrageenan or soy. Epic leans on grass-fed and paleo claims that are real but far less independently verified than USDA Organic.
4. Works for breakfast, lunch or recovery
A 16g protein shake with real calories covers a skipped breakfast, a post-workout refuel, or a meal eaten in the car. A 7g protein bacon bar only ever plugs a snack gap, solving a narrower problem for a similar price.
5. Yes, Epic tastes great. Still skip it for meals.
Epic earns strong reviews, 4.4 stars from over 4000 ratings, and it genuinely tastes good. But swap it in for a meal like Orgain and you are 9g short on protein with none of the vitamins or minerals, so for anyone using this as a meal replacement the shake still wins.
