My Snack Bar Infatuation

I'm liking the ones they have at Costco... the ones that are mostly grains, held together...

...by a lightly sweetened sticky syrup.

Yum,

Michael

 
I have been replacing breakfast with Zone Bars. The high protein

keeps me filled from 7 til about 11. It's good for me as I have to make up for the ice cream that I had for dinner last night!

 
I'm currently eating Larabars....(more)....

They have all natural ingredients, and
no more than six ingredients in any of
their flavors, and they have very nice
nutrition numbers.

And they're in my grocery aisle (Fry's).

I'm currently in love with the Cashew Cookie.
It has cashews and dates.

The Apple Pie and the Banana Cookie are
also very good. I haven't tried any of
the others yet.

If you click on the link, click on "Food",
click on "Larabar", and click on "Flavors",
you can check out all of their flavors and
all of the ingredients in each flavor.

Charles Barkley had a great line when he appeared on The Tonight Show. Leno asked him if he...

...was "in shape", since it was obvious that Charles had put on quite a bit of weight since his playing days. Barkley answered, "Yeah, I'm in shape. ROUND is a shape!"

Love it.

Ice cream has protein and other assorted nutrients. I tell myself that as I cheat with a little bit now and then.

When Dad needed to gain weight and couldn't have much liquid or sodium...

I found the Larabars.
They were a godsend. High protein, high calorie and protein, no fat and no sodium. He'd had a major heart attack along with congestive heart failure, and was on major fluid restrictions along with low sodium.
He especially liked the ginger and apple pie flavors.
I have had a few since then, but I tend toward the low calorie Pria bars for when I need a light snack.

 
Head Back to Whole Foods Quick!

Hey Cheez,

I'm an almond junkie, so my favorite right now is the Cranberry Almond trail mix bar. They taste AMAZING and they're soft!!

You'll be impressed after you read the ingredients. They've got organic fruits and grains, no hydrogenated oils, no high fructose corn syrup, no artificial flavs or preservatives smileys/smile.gif
