Guilt Free Grocery Store Find #2 Fiber One Oat and Apple Streusel Bar

[PrincessDijon]

I was wandering in the store today looking for "healthier" snack foods that I could resort to in my most desparate hour of "cravedom" and I have read quite a bit of good things about the Fiber One bars and how they fill others up for hours.

It may not be as smart of a choice as some low-fat yogurt or a piece of fruit but if it''s this or hitting the drive thru, I''d resort to this!

Taste factor, I give it a 4 (in HL points), yes it still has the granola-y taste but the apple makes it quite a tasty snack option, especially if one is rushed for time.

Price: $2.08 a box at the local Wal*Mart Neighborhood Market

lol its way too late to be looking at these kind of threads- but AHHHHHHHHHHH! YUM!! haha, I''ve never tried it before- looks fantastic!
haha.
I''m a pretty big fan of Nature Valley Apple crumble (or something similar) the "mushy" version..haha.
No "spread" - but I''m a HUGE fan of apple pie- and it totally does the trick when that''s what I crave.

I now want what you showed NOW...aaaaaaaaah. hahahah,

MMMMM!! I eat one of these like... everyday! They''re so good!

I also like the chocolate chip ones, and the caramel bars. They go really great with black coffee in the morning!

A word of caution though- if you''re increasing fiber if your diet for the first time- go slow- otherwise you''ll be gasey and bloated! (that wasn''t fun!)

I bought a bid box of the chocolate chip bars from Costco. I like the taste but I do get gassy

It is alright if I drink a ton of water when I eat the bar. Be sure to warn other family members....... My ten year old son ate three of bars one afternoon (without my knowledge!) He was very sick, bloated, gasey, and a few other things. The poor kid won''t eat them for $$$. He survived and we can laugh about it now
