It can be pretty overwhelming when you see the rows of energy bars at the grocery store, but I just found an awesome one made by Odwalla that I think you'd like too. I bought a box of the Peanut Crunch flavor, which are the same as the single bars you can buy, but they're half the size. That means they're only 120 calories instead of 240, so they're perfect for a light snack before or after a workout. I love how these are called "nourishing food bars" instead of "energy bars." That's because they're made with actual food like rolled oats, peanut butter, date and plum puree, and organic soy nuts.
OK, so they're made with healthy and whole ingredients, but do they taste good? Yes! So good! I love "nourishing food bars" that are chewy and these Odwalla Bars fit the bill. The oats, peanut butter and date and plum puree give these bars a wonderful consistency, like a homemade cookie. You can actually see the whole oats too, which is always a plus. They have a very strong "peanutty" flavor and I felt satisfied after eating one bar.

pure genius.
1The super protein one is great... As is the superfood
2The chocolate-chip peanut one is just up-ing the ant-y of the regular peanut with big chuncks of chocolate
I've tried the Berries GoMega, the Super Protein, Superfood, the chocolate chip peanut bar, and this one...they're all oodles better warmed up in the microwave for 24 seconds and washed down with vanilla soymilk.
They're all very yummy.
3I just found a new energy bar too! It's called ZBar and it's a Kids Clif Bar. Organic, whole grain, and flavors like chocolate brownie. Average tasting but it does the trick for me. It also advertises that it meets California's Senate Bill 19 for healthy snacks for kids. =) 120 calories, 3 grams of fiber, 3 grams of protein, 35% Vitamin C, 30% Calcium, 10% Iron, etc. At Trader Joe's for like 49 cents each!
4I love their fruit drinks, there my faves. I love energy bars so this is a must try.
5The carrot cake and the berry flavors are awesome too!
6i've tried some in the past but i find that all those bars taste the same and never seem to eat more than one from a particular brand or flavour.
