    Thanks for the tip, I have been eating the sweet and salty almond bars by Nature Valley but I have since looked at the nutritional value and I realized there has to be something better....so I am now going to take that tip and check it out. Thanks!

    I prefer fruits and vegetables when I am on the go. Radishes, celery, broccoli pieces, bananas, apples, oranges.

    Larabars! Just fruit, nuts, and some occasional chocolate. Also they're delicious.

    I'm in love the the Planters Nut-Rition Energy bars. They're honey roasted peanuts, almonds, and dark chocolate. Dunno if they're really "good" for me....don't care. They're a nice 170 calorie snack.

    Luna Peppermint Stick is a close second place.

    Larabars and Gnu Flavor & Fiber bars are my favorites right now.
    I actually made these last week and liked them:

    Next I'd like to try to make my own bars that are like Larbars, seems like they will be easy to make.

    perfect

    Yup this is all good too but the OP was talking about food bars, not healthy snacks in general.

    I have always wanted to try and make my own bars but they always came out terrible. I really want to try and make some new and see if I could make them better :)

    I remeber trying a version of a protein bar a couple years ago that I did not like, but I was happy with this one. It came out as a soft texture, almost like a larbar but even softer. Here is the next one I want to try which really seems like the ones I just tried, minus the quinoa.

    Oh and if you like oatmeal you might like something like this, its not exactly a bar but a firmed up oatmeal that is easy to make a bunch to have on hand for breakfast, snacks or whatever. You can add in whatever fruit or sweeteners you like. I just made it with apple chunks and it was really good but my favorit way is with peanut butter and bananas.

    I go pass the bars and go to Quakers Rice Cakes, there on 50 calories each and now they come in different flavors (corn candy, apples, chocolate). They taste so much better now and they even have bites (ranch, cheddar cheese, etc.) they have really improved. I would love to each the bars but watching the calories.

    I am new to the bars, but my favorites so far are Zone Perfect White Chocolate Macadamia 210 calories and 14 protein.

    I like the Atkins Advantage Caramel Chocolate Peanut Nougat Bar 180 calories, 10 grams of protein, net 3 g carbs and

    South Beach Diet Protein Fit Peanut Butter 140 calories 9 grams of protein. I seem to like the ones that have more fat. I think that will change as my taste buds change.
