only 5 bucks a bar and
"Protein Isolate, Tom & Luke bars are the high fibre, high protein, high fat snacks of the future!"
They dont even contain Spam (or do they)
If I want to spend $5 on a high protein/energy tramping snack then One Square Meal has 2 bars for $4.50 (ghastly aftertaste, except the chocolate ones).....and even then that's too expensive!
Folk like Honora and others probably make their own for a 10th of the price.
I make my own ('Smart Slice' recipe from the Healthy Food Guide if anyone's interested), using butter instead of marg to up the fat content, and whatever dried fruits and nuts I have in the pantry. Probably costs me about $10 for 20 of 'em, plus half an hour of my time.
Mind you, those pear + ginger breakfast bars look blardy nice.
Spam flavour is ok I suppose.
Have you tried traffic jam on toast?
Quite nice with a cup of coffee.
I've tried making snack bars but need to up the flour content over nuts and dried fruit so have to work out a decent recipe. I'm trying to avoid the grains as they are pro-inflammatory and I have thyroiditis. Trouble is I'm a lazy and unenthusiastic baker. I bought maca powder but that's not good for us Hashimoto's people but have chestnut flour which is absolutely delicious.
