    Fiber One bars in Oats and Chocolate are possibly the yummiest thing ever.

    And if I consume one, you'll hear me coming from a mile away. The only thing I could figure is the Chicory, as that's the only ingredient they have that isn't in other bars.

    But damn..they are good :(

    Interesting how people that don't believe in organic/pesticide free/ non-gmo stuff like to make fun of those of us that care about these issues.

    Honestly, there is a carcinogen in everything. You honestly can't avoid it unless you grow your own food and raise your own animals, and even that case isn't 100%.

    Anything to excess can cause illness and cancers... The point is to be informed in the first place! I just think about where you find these... Some you find in the organic section, some in the regular cereals. There's quite possibly a reason!

    My point earlier, btw, wasn't to make fun of anyone, but to point out the fact that even if you get all non-modified foods, if you cook them in certain ways, they can be just as bad, if not worse, than just partaking in moderation.

    Next thing you know, people will be advising others not to run outside because the sun and environmental aspects can cause cancer and injury to your body...

    Why hasn't anyone ever mentioned the fact that working after dark increases the risk for breast cancer? To me that's far more concerning, and common, then people who would die from cereal.

    haha I thought you were going to be warning about the cereal's flatulent effects. That's the real danger!!

    Save yourself the trouble of avoiding high fiber foods and buy a dog if you don't have one. They take the blame and love you anyway.

    OMG! I just spit coffee all over my keyboard!!! ROFL

    Thanks for the imagry, made my day LOL!

    agree.... and too much soy in men lowers testosterone levels, FYI.

    Was searching Kashi cereal and found this thread. I have been experiencing bad stomach cramping late afternoons when I have eaten Kashi cereal in the morning. I just thought maybe my belly didnt like the fiber. I now see there are issues with Kashi cereal so I won't be eating it anymore. Just wish I would have read this before I ate 1 1/2 cups of Kashi Go Lean crunch this morning.

    Soy and corn are always GMO unless they are specifically labeled organic. Just a rule of thumb.

    Even the act of cooking creates carcinogens.

    All plants make their own pesticides (how do you think plants resist bugs?)

    The dose makes the poison. You can die of drinking too much water.

    It is the Kashi cereals the ones that have GMO ingredients.

    I haven't found anything about their bars yet. I am pretty careful when reading labels and look for those that might have GMO ingredients. If it doens't say non - gmo, i stay away from it. Now I am going to research the granola bars.

    I will be so sad if the granola bars are GMO, bc they are very delicious. The cereal is beyond gross so I'm not disappointed on that front.
