Lara Bars?

So, I was at Sam's today and saw them on the shelf. They look so good and I loved the fact that the ingredients listed were things I recognized (just fruit and nuts). I hope I like them as much as I like the thought of how they're made. The box I bought had Apple Pie, Cashew cookie (YUM!! I love cashews!!!) and Cherry Pie. I hate cherries, but my hubby likes them, so I'm hoping he'll eat those. LOL

Anybody else tried these? What do you think?

    They are my FAVORITE treat!!! I've stuck w/a few flavors for a long time since they're so good but recently I've branched out. If you like chocolate, try the Jocolate Hazelnut ones. They're my current favorite. Also, the Peanut Butter Cookie ones are just fab! They're definitely a healthy splurge.

    I love them too! Especially the Cashew Cookie and Pecan Pie flavors. They keep me fairly full and make me feel like I'm having a treat

    I LOVE Larabars! My favorite is the Peanut Butter & Jelly one. It tastes (to me) exactly like a PB&J sandwich. How they pulled that off using only nuts & cherries floors me every time. Cinnamon Roll is also yummy.

    These are FANTASTIC... a favorite recent discovery of mine. I love that they have no added sugars, no gluten and no preservatives... just mixed up fruit/nuts and that's it! I feel better about eating these than a lot of the other "fruit" bars out there. I've only tried a few flavors so far, but I've liked every one I've tried. They're on sale in my area at one of our major grocery store chains right now, so I'm going to stock up this weekend.

    Where are y'all finding these flavors that sound so yummy? Maybe I just hadn't thought to look at the regular grocery stores yet.. hmmm.. I've got a huge box of them now (from Sam's) but if they're as good as they sound, I may be looking for new flavors too.

    I've found them at Walmart, my grocery stores, and largely at the local natural foods store (Good Earth)

    I tried the cashew cookie bar today. It was yummy and I couldn't believe *how* filling it was! OMG! I wasn't hungry for hours after eating that thing.

    I LOVE LARA BARS!!! my favorite flavor is Peanut butter cookie. the ingredients are just dates peanuts and salt. and it tastes just like a peant butter cookie to me. When I just have to have something sweet these are my go to treats!

    I like to buy them direct from the company, at http://www.larabar.com They are much fresher than when I buy them in the groceriy stors, and I can always get the flavor I want intead of just what is in stock. I also love the mini variety pack for when I just need a little treat!

    I got the pecan pie one, and I just thought it tasted like dates :( I hear so many good things, though, so I want to give them another chance. How's the peanut butter and jelly one? And looks like I'm gonna have to pick up a pb cookie one...

    I LOVE Larabars.
    I have a box of mini, 100 calorie sized Larabars from Whole Foods. Apple pie's my favorite.
