Lara bars!!1 YUM

I've already found some of the Pro ones at my store, so I don't need to order them. Well, if they never sell the plain ones, I may order them... or just keep eating regular Paydays.

Pro paydays? Please explain?

There's a thread or two in the nutrition area talking about these new Payday Pro bars, which are Payday energy bars. I've tried the kind that are covered in chocolate with choc chips and dried cranberries... they were pretty good, but I could live without the chocolate when I'm riding. Apparently they make them with the regular peanuts and caramel only. I want to try that one!

oh i will keep my eye's open for you! i think I would like those best as well! Save the chocolate for after!

Back to Lara Bars. I've been a fan for a while, but just tried the Cashew Cookie Bar. While it is yummy, I think I'll stay away from it--I was surprised at the amount of saturated fat it has. I guess that's what makes cashews so irresistable though.

hmmm, I saw that one but didn't want to try it for some reason. Usually after a ride or workout I like something with a fruit flavour. I never buy anything with chocolate in it either, chocolate in bars or gels just doesn't taste natural to me. I rather wait till after the ride and have some chocolate milk...

My regular grocery store, Stop & SHop, sells the Luna bars in their natural foods section. I bought a couple to try and when I got home I realized one has chocolate on it, but if I take it on a ride, it will melt for sure now that the warmer weather has arrived!! I can't wait to try the other flavors!

Lara bars are all fruits and nuts. The Cocoa Mole is delicious, has cocoa powder, cinnamon, and chili, along with the dates/raisins/walnuts. I love Lara bars, but I'm getting a bit tired of the Cherry Pie (I bought a case). I enjoy mixing it up with the Mojo bars.
