Do not eat the Banana crunch bar from Starbucks.
I just had one of these. I know - WHAT was I thinking? The whole freaking thing was disgusting and I feel SICK, but I ate it because I was on a conference call and it was there.
But it got me thinking - we talk a lot about foods we like (the chocolate thread, the chocolate milk thread, etc.). Anyone want to throw out some suggested STAY AWAY FROM foods?
the bannana latte frapp either. They had samples when I went in yesterday. Yep - I drank the whole thing. Yep - I felt sick. Yep - it wasn't good AT ALL (appologies to anyone who loves them...).
Now the green tea blackberry frapp - Yum! Requires many, many miles of biking to burn off those calories, though.
I saw that! What's the deal with the banana at Starbucks?? So weird. Banana and coffee just isn't a good combo.
I figure I'm probably in a minority but anything Clif Bar... I just can't myself to eat one of those cardboard bricks!!!
And otherthing I'm probably in the miniority - I couldn't locate those jelly beans everyone is talking about but I did find the Clif Bloks... again, I should stay away from anything Clif... I had trouble gagging one of those Bloks down!
Agreed - I'm not sure whether the *burned* coconut flakes on top were worse or the stuff floating in it that kinda looked like slimy bannana:eek: :eek: :eek:Quote:

I have the same reaction to Clif Bars, but I really like Clif's Luna Bars. And their nectar bars taste good too. I guess I'm in the minority too on the (basic) Clif Bar front.Quote:

I second that motion. They had the samples out on Sunday and I took one sip and then pawned it off on my three year old. He'll eat pretty much anything. :pQuote:

In addition to eating things that I find disgusting, this kid swipes my sashimi and California rolls and eats all of my salads when I turn my back. http://www.tinklebelle.com/Smilies/images/no.gif Aren't kids supposed to live on pop tarts? http://www.tinklebelle.com/Smilies/images/bucky.gifQuote:

There's this "protein" bar, can't remember the name right now (because it was so traumatic that I blocked it) that made me just about puke. I mean. I don't even want to know what you have to put in a bar to get 56 gm of protein in there, but I'm thinking Soylent Green or something...and then, to have the gall, the gall! to call it "cookie dough" flavor. BARF! :eek:
I really can't do lima beans. The kicker is they are my husband's favorite veggie. The only time he gets them is when he visits his parents.:p
Luna bars are great. Some Balance bars are good, although they discontinued my favorite lemon meringue flavor recently.
Clif and Power bars taste like asphalt. Clif like new asphalt, Power bars like OLD asphalt that's baked in the sun for lo these many years.
Worst in the world for me, by far: creamed spinach. Ecchh! Wrong texture for me.
I know this is strange, but lima beans and creamed spinach are two of my favorite vegetables. Really. Spinach anything, to tell you the truth. I went through a phase where I ate spinach every day in some form or another. When I was eating out, I'd ask them to add spinach to anything. I must've been short some nutrient.
