has anyone tried them??? Are they good for you do they taste good or like sawdust?? I keep seeing them every were but am afraid to buy them and end up not likeing them i want to keep some at my desk

Unfortunately I tried them. They were giving out free samples at my office building.

I got the Raisin Almond one and I thought it was nasty. The texture was weird - kind of chewy (in a cookie like way), but also kind of grainy (which was odd because it looked nothing like a granola bar, which is supposed to be grainy). Also, the flavor was odd kind of salty-sweet with the metallic undertone that so many of those types of bars have. I attributed the odd flavor (and corresponding smell) to the ingredients which included parmesan cheese. In a supposed-to-be-sweet Raisin Almond bar, that's just an odd addition IMO.

Also, these things are TINY! How is something so small supposed to fill you up? They are only 30g with 4g of protein, 3g of fiber, and 130 calories. I would rather have a LUNA bar (48g) for a couple more calories (170/180/190) with 9g protein and 5g of fiber.

ewww yuck why would they put parmesan cheese in a raisin almond bar yuck i might try one like strawberry or something but im realy scared its going to taste like crap lol thanks for the heads up

I just checked and it seems that the only safe flavors(i.e. parmesan cheese free) are:

Mango Coconut
Berry
Strawberry

Although, the Berry bar has red bean paste, which could also lend a unique/odd flavor depending on your tastes. Red bean paste is often used in Asian cooking and it's not too popular here (from what I've seen). Being the ever adventurous foodie I tried it, but I wasn't really crazy about it. There's no beanie flavor or anything - I just don't know how to describe it. It is however, SUPER sweet.

i had red bean ice cream when i was in disney in epcot in china with my lunch it was rather intresting it was strawberry red bean pretty good but everyonce in awhile i would get a bean but it was ok ill try the strawberry im not big on super sweet either so i might not like them one bit lol
