| High Glycemic index - Avoid this if you are fat or have diabetes | 2010-03-10 | 2 / 5 |
| While the bar lists ingredients as natural beware of an Important fact:
The first ingredient in the Cashew bar is 'dates'. That means the largest ingredient in the bar is dates. The Glycemic index of dates is 103. That is measured in the scale of 0-100! which is more than pure Glucose! This simply means that bar will raise your blood sugar like crazy immediately after eating it. If you have diabetes or trying to reduce the weight, don't even go near the bar. If you are a healthy eater avoid this bar.
Today we have a high incident of obesity in the nation and how irresponsible on the part of Larabar makers to offer a high sugar snack product disguised as natural product. |
| Pretty good - though flavor not all I had hoped | 2010-03-03 | 4 / 5 |
| These are, like all LaraBars, flavorful, filling, and made of simple ingredients. The flavor wasn't all I'd hoped, given some of the reviews - they're cherry pie LaraBars with chopped peanuts added - a little peanut taste as you bite into them, and a peanut aftertaste. What I loved about peanut butter sandwiches was the way the richness of the peanut butter contrasted with the fruitiness of the jelly.
These bars don't do it for me, since they lack the rich peanut butter taste I love. However, they're not at all bad in themselves (just not so good that they'd make my favorites list, where apple pie remains at the top, though I've never tried a LaraBar I really didn't like). |
| Healthy option, but Not so palatable | 2010-02-25 | 2 / 5 |
| | I liked the fact that this product has a simple ingredient list and I could find gluten and dairy free protein bars. So after hearing much about these, I decided to try them. I tried various flavors, but still I just don't like them. The texture is probably the worst part, I just find it gross and gummy. As for taste, they're rather bland. I think there are better tasting healthy options out there. As for me, I won't be purchasing these again. |
| As healthy as bars get | 2010-02-18 | 5 / 5 |
| The raw nuts and fruits in these bars make them as close to nature as anything you will find in a wrapper. The Larabar reminds me of the naturally zesty and sweet fruit rolls I used to eat as a kid but also has wonderful, flavorfull fresh nuts mixed in. Raw nuts contain healthy fats and the protein and fat in the nuts will lower the glycemic index of the food. If you don't want to lug around raw cherries and a snack bag of raw nuts, this is the convenient alternative.
Keep in mind, these are excellent treats for pets too. They are especially nice for birds who like to pick at the dried fruit and munch on the raw nuts. If you are going to offer these to a pet, please check the ingredients to be sure they are compatible with your species of pet. |
| Amazing New Flavor | 2010-02-18 | 5 / 5 |
| Peanut Butter and Jelly Larabars is a new flavor (to me, anyway, because I just discovered them in the stores here). They are really awesome.
I admit, I've never been a fan of peanut butter and jelly sandwiches with light bread, but I LOVED peanut butter and jelly on graham crackers. Now that I've gone vegan, I can't eat peanut butter and jelly or graham crackers, but this PB&J Larabar tastes just like the peanut butter and jelly on graham crackers that I used to eat. And even for non-vegans, these bars are still good - anybody can eat them. They taste just like whatever the flavor is, and are healthy (even though you'd never know it, because they taste so good!)
These bars are healthy, natural, soy-free, vegan, kosher. They have no added sugar, and no chemicals. It is amazing how something so natural and simple can be so good.
Larabars are good to pack for trips, lunches, or anytime you need some energy (or just food); they are convenient because you don't have to cook, measure, slice, or stir, and you don't need a container with a special lid. You don't need anything! You just open and eat!!! All the flavors are good for energy or hunger-control, but when I am really hungry, my favorite flavors are peanut butter cookie and peanut butter and jelly (the featured flavor in this particular review). The ones with peanut butter (not really peanut butter, but just peanuts) seem to give me more energy.
I love all flavors of Larabars (I haven't yet discovered a flavor that I didn't like), but I do have my favorites, depending on the mood I'm in. Like I mentioned in the prior paragraph, Peanut butter cookie and peanut butter and jelly are my favorites if I am really hungry.
All the flavors of Larabars are healthy, and even though they have no added sugar, they certainly crave my desire for sweets (because they do taste like they have sugar, even though they don't). I am not really a big "sweets" eater; I prefer salts. If I could just have salty foods all the time, I think I could totally give up sweets. But even those who do love sweets, I think these bars would satisfy their sweets desire, also, because they taste like whatever the flavor is. |
