| PROTEIN SOURCE | Jigsaw Bars are made from whey and rice proteins, not soy protein. Many bars on the market contain soy. Soy has been associated with mineral depletion and reduced immune function. On the other hand, whey has been shown to promote immune health. | Zone Perfect is made from soy protein nuggets. |
| OTHER | Jigsaw Bars don't contain gluten, soy protein or casein. Gluten intolerance is a chronic condition that can damage the small intestines and cause nutrient malabsorption in those who have Celiac disease. Jigsaw Bars contain no casein, the main culprit in milk allergies. | Zone Perfect contains milk and soy. |
| OTHER | Jigsaw Bars contain OptinutrinTM mushroom extract, an immune booster for immune health. | Zone Perfect contains fractionated plam kernel and palm oils. |

| TASTE AND CONSISTENCY | Jigsaw chocolate-flavored bars have a dark chocolate taste with a light crispy crunch (from rice crisps). They are not coated with chocolate and not sticky. The wrapper comes off easily and the product doesn't stick to the wrapper. It has a mild sweet taste of dark chocolate. | Zone Perfect is a chocolate coated bar with a raspberry center. It is very crispy on the inside, and it has an unnatural raspberry taste. The chocolate coating holds up well and it has a much lighter texture than the Kashi GoLean, making it easier to swallow. |
