Just found your blog hopping through from one gf to another! Thanks for the list — I’d never heard of some of them.

My favorite bar is organic Pure bars:

OMG fabulous post! This is my 1st comment on your bloggie, I found you via Justine, Confessions of a SAHM. I am vegan, so inherently dairy free. But I am also gluten and soy free. Therefore, processed bars dont really fit into my life that much b/c they contain either gluten or soy or of course dairy. So, I actually just drink brown rice protein shakes OR I make homemade Larabars which I have blogged about. But honestly, I love the taste of fake powerbar-esque foods and would probably love any of these bars if I could eat them LOL. You’re goin’ in my googlereader!

I would! And the organic food bar is my go to for travelling. One of the best in my opinion, health wise and taste wise.

I used to LOVE Gnu bars before I found out about my food allergies. My husband, who does not have the same dietary restrictions, still eats the Gnu with great abandon. They are awesome if you can eat gluten, soy, etc. Now, I eat Lara bars instead–yum yum. Before my food allergies, I also adored Carman’s Muesli bars (though they were sometimes tough to find).

Great roundup! I’m a big fan of the Clif Necter bars, but Larabars are my favorite! I would love to see your recipe too!

Thanks for this information. I mainly buy bars when I travel, and usually end up with Clif bars crunchy peanut butter flavor, which can often be found for 99 cents. I’m tired of those, and have kind of stopped liking the taste – too sweet. I’ll look for the ones you recommended. I like dried fruit bars a lot.

As always, a recipe is great! I really use the nutritional information as a guideline more than for actually information. I am a calorie counter, but I know that there is always wiggle room. I also learned that all things that are labeled “lactose free” are not always that. They just have to be below a certain amount to qualify! Now that is scary for people like me!
