So, a coworker introduced me to these things:
I find them pretty yummy and like the concept (and supporting locals with good ideas), so I thought
I'd mention them here.
I called their order number and spoke to Lara herself, who dissuaded me from ordering by pointing
out the great deals I could get at various local stores. According to her, my local King Soopers
(Boulder and Longmont, CO) will be carrying them by the end of the week.
There are 5 flavors. All of the bars are ~200 calories, and they all have 6 or fewer ingredients
(more often three, one as few as 2, and all of the ingredients are things you can buy in your
grocery store's produce dept).
Eric does point out that they all have nuts and dates as their binding agents, so some of the
flavors do taste a bit similar ... otoh, cherry and banana are *very* distinctive. And of course,
folks with nut allergies can't touch these (don't know about peanuts, though, since none of the bars
have peanuts in them ...)
Anyway, if you like the idea of a snack food that has fewer "weird" ingredients than most breakfast
or nutrient bars, you might check these out.
