What Is Your Favorite Energy Bar?

December 3, 2007

We all have a "go to" snack when we are on-the-go. I find the most convenient snack to keep around, in a desk drawer, purse or diaper bag, is an energy bar. They're packaged and they have a long shelf life. Plus many energy bars are on the sweet side making them a great alternative to a candy bar. So, I want to know. . .

I *love* KIND bars. So yummy, and not super-sweet! http://kindsnacks.com/

I LOVE LOVE LOVE Flavor and Fiber bars. They are loaded with fiber. I had only been able to find them at Whole Foods, but am very happy to say my local Trader Joe's has started to carry them as well!

I don't know if it's considered an energy bar, but i like the Slimfast Optima bars.

Luna bars taste like little pieces of heaven. When I sleep in and I'm running late for class I take one with me (not eating in the morning ruins the rest of my day) and they keep me tided over until lunch. I just LOVE them!

I am obsessed with the new fiberOne bars, oatmeal chocolate chip and peanut butter both pack a lot of fiber (obviously) but take as good as a full fat warm from the oven cookie, and have all the nutrients and energy power as other bars, and they're only 140 calories!

I like regular Clif bars (crunchy peanut butter) for breakfast, since they have some protein and are easy to eat in the car. Luna bars (nutz over chocolate) are good too, but they don't last past 9:30 a.m. and can leave crumbs in the car. Nectar bars (any dark chocolate variety) are divine for a snack.

I'm addicted to the Balance Bar - Bare ones that are the sweet/salty mixture (my favorite craving). I have one of those (about 210 calories) before I teach my dance class 3 nights a week, and a small salad afterwards.

I take my lunch to school and clonk around my purple lunch box for hours before I get to eat, so I'm very familiar with the Luna, Lara, Clif, and Odwalla bars. My favorites are definitely the Cashew Cookie larabars, Black Cherry Almond Clif bars, Trail Mix and Chocolate Cherry kashi bars. Microwaved Chocolate-Peanut Butter and Super Protein Odwalla bars are yummy, too. Kashi pumpkin spice bars are wonderful too but I have to soak it in vanilla soy milk first. =| They're serious when they say they're crunchy!

I LOVE Clif bars! I don't snack on them since they have so many calories but if I can't get away at work I'll have one with a piece of fruit or some yogurt for lunch. The Pear Apple Strudel and Blueberry Crisp are my favs!

GNU bar, I like all the flavors. Almost 50% of the Daily Value of Fiber in one tasty bar:) http://www.gnufoods.com/

Alright, since Kashi and Clif are getting such great reviews i'll try a few nut-free versions. The smores luna bars are my backup for kettle valley, so I know they are delicious.

i don't know if it qualifies as an "energy" bar, but i am obsessed with the Kashi Crunchy bars!
