Ginger snap Larabars

Post by m »

Hi everyone,
I must confess. This time of year I really miss pumpkin pie, spiced donuts and all the other fall goodies. Recently I have discovered ginger snap Larabars. They're great! If i have them with a steaming cup of tea, I can almost image a cozy fire, pumpkin pie and frosty pumpkins. Trader Joe's carries them as do some health food stores.

Hi Melissa!

What are the ingredients? Also, please give us an update on you. Are you on Entocort? How are you eating? How are you feeling? Better, I hope. You were having a prolonged flare the last I recall. Good to see you back!

Love,

Polly

Hi again m,

I just saw your response to my questions on grannyh's thread. Good news! So you are off the Entocort now? How is the nausea?

Love,

Polly

Polly et. al.,
The Larabars have something like dates, almonds, clove, cinnamon, nutmeg in them. All raw, no added sugars. I tolerate them well so probably you will too. The cherry ones are good too. Now if they were only coated in chocolate they'd be the perfect food. ;)

I'm feeling much, much better now, thanks for asking. Been off Entocort for about 2 weeks. Don't seem to have had rebound. Still have boughts of nausea but nothing like August.

Hi Melissa!

I finally got to Trader Joe's tonight and found the Larabars! I bought 3 different kinds - the ginger snap ones that you recommended and the apple pie and cherry ones. And all of them are totally"safe" with minimal ingredients! YAY! I am too full tonight to try them but will let you know when I do. Thanks so much for the tip!

Love,

Polly

More good news! They come in Cocoa! Well, mole actually but they're good. My Whole Foods had cocoa and cashew, as well as the other flavors and banana (yuk). They're a great snack food for my desk.
