Energy/Nutritional Bars
I'm getting sick of eating Power Bars. Please recommend an alternative that you think tastes good. I'm not looking for a supplement/protein bar that a weightlifter might use to help gain muscle mass, I just eat the power bars (and sometimes Tiger Bars) as a slightly better alternative to chocolate bars, starbursts, etc...
Thanks |

Re: Energy/Nutritional Bars
I tried a Larabar the other day and was quite impressed. That said, I'm not sure that I want to drop the $1.50-$2 it would cost per bar to have a box of 16 shipped to me.

Combined w/ a banana and a Starbucks coffee they make a good lunch. |

Re: Energy/Nutritional Bars
Okay, I went to three different supermarkets and each only carried three or four flavors of the Clif, couldn't find the Black Cherry Almound yet. I've tried the carrot cake, it was good, I'd probably get another one. Tried the Chocolate Brownie, nasty. Have a few more flavors to try (crunchy peanut butter, oatmeal raisin walnut, & chocolate chip). I'll keep lookin' for the Black Cherry. Side note: I love the high fiber these clif bars have.
Thanks |

[/ QUOTE ] Tried the Banana Cookie, very good. It's like biting into real banana nut bread. I'll try the Cherry pie later today. So far I like the Larabar and the Odwalla bars best. Bye bye Power Bars. |

I just tried the Fiber One bars (chocolate & oats - I believe.) They were really good and had lots of fiber (9+ grams). I also like the Apricot Cliff Bar and the original tiger bar.

Re: Energy/Nutritional Bars
For bulking, Cliff Bars suck... not enough protein content. I would recommend Myoplex (deluxe) bars.
