LÄRABAR--Apple Pie
Apple Pie flavored LÄRABAR is a delicious blend of dates, walnuts, unsweetened apples, raisins, and cinnamon. The ingredients are raw--never cooked, never processed. This bar is surprisingly sweet despite the fact that it doesn't contain any sweeteners. I'm apt to eat it as a quick breakfast or a pre-workout snack. Sometimes I'll eat it for dessert. The nutrition facts state that for this 190-calorie bar you get 9 grams of fat, 4 grams of fiber, 4 grams of protein, and an impressive amount of a host of other vitamins and minerals. I find it a great substitute for a candy bar--it truly satisfies the cravings for something sweet while it does something great for your body.
Manufacturer says: Apple Pie — just like mom's … satisfying as well as nourishing. Spiced with cinnamon and paired with juicy raisins, the apples deliver 3 grams of natural fiber. Almonds contribute Vitamin E and protein while the dates add 14 essential vitamins and minerals. Omega 3 & 6 essential fatty acids come from the walnuts. With all this goodness occurring naturally, you can eat Apple Pie every day! Uncooked, Unprocessed, No Added Sugars, Non-Irradiated, Non-GMO, Preservative-Free, Sulfite-Free, Gluten-Free, Dairy-Free, Soy-Free, Corn-Free, Vegan, Kosher.
He says: MMM. I really like the nuts in them. The raisins are really good. It all blends together really well. It's light, but sustaining. Seems like it would give you a lot of staying power if you were trying to do something such as ski or weightlift. It's a great 10 a.m. snack--it would get you right through to lunch. It's one of the best bars I've ever had. It blows granola bars away--really a man's granola bar.
