But hey, at least there's 31 grams of protein!
However, physical activity will usually severely blunt the effect of heavy carb consumption because most people aren't in ketosis, and so if you exercise regularly (and aren't eating only carbs and fat), the metabolic processes your body goes through will level you out fairly well. But as soon as you stop being active, heavy carb intake (and especially sugar) will promote insulin resistance. And that leads to diabetes.

Plus what other bar out there has calories or protein that match or exceed Met-rx bars.

I'm not going to fault you for not knowing but most Americans seems to think sugar causes diabetes. I'm going to have to assume you and most others seems to think this way because diabetes has the whole "blood sugar" thing in its description. But I am here to educate you that sugar isn't the cause of type 2 diabetes. It's the sedentary lifestyle with being severely overweight. Sure you can link overweight with sugar but the same could be said with a low sugar but extremely calorie dense diet.
Given that I have a major sweet tooth and do not have type 2 diabetes which is the one you and seemingly most others believes is caused by sugar… Here's my current physique, at least my back that I just took the other day. Also here's a screenshot of the most recent sugary items I bought as proof I have that I actually consume sugar food.

With that said, I would not get this. If I wanted something with lots of sugar, I want to enjoy it. Since I never enjoy protein bars, the sugar taste would be wasted for me here.

Hm, ok let's just not talk about that large Dunkin iced coffee that's only a teeny bit sweet *cough50grams*, or a 20oz Mt Dew with a whopping SEVENTY SEVEN g's of sugar (and zero protein btw). It's all relative.

This really isn't the whole story. You do not have to be severely overweight to develop type 2 diabetes. Your macronutrients are what cause it. I know plenty of older men (50s and 60s) who are relatively thin and they all have type 2 diabetes. The common factor is heavy carbohydrate (and particularly sugar) consumption. Years of bad diet, even if it doesn't exceed recommended calorie limits, will cause insulin resistance. That's just science.
However, physical activity will usually severely blunt the effect of heavy carb consumption because most people aren't in ketosis, and so if you exercise regularly (and aren't eating only carbs and fat), the metabolic processes your body goes through will level you out fairly well.
