When is it not ok to down a protein bar/shake?

[Liberate]

Is it cool if I down a protein bar or shake when I wake up in the morning? A lot of times I'll wake up at around 12 PM and will have missed the opportunity to eat breakfast (I'm a college student, so when the dining hall closes, I'm SOL). How about on an off-day?

Thanks for the help.

Protein bars are food. If you need food, eat them. They're just generally a better option than most foods because of the high protein content. That's really all there is to it...

Cheers, thanks. I'll go ahead and grab a Novus bar.
