It is suspected that some of the hardest material known to science can be found in the skulls of GI specialists who insist that diet has nothing to do with the treatment of microscopic colitis.

Interesting...wonder if they will drop the prices a bit. That would sure be nice.... :???: We tend to make our own Larabars, it does save a little money that way...

Good Thought. They might, because they will almost surely try to boost sales in any way they can, and if they see a good chance of that happening, they're pretty likely to cut the price to match their expected sales volume, which, of course, will help to increase sales, in itself.

I went to the health food store and didn't get anything sweet! How dumb. Sweets are my downfall, though. I guess I'll find Larabars in Cleveland. I'll search to see if the recipe is on PP site.

GF sure is expensive, I must say. 7 items were just under $40.

BTW, I told the store owner, here I am your new best friend...........

I used to go to a local HFS every few weeks, to restock certain items. The last half dozen times I was there, though, they were always out of the Kinnikinnick Vanilla-Dipped Donuts. Now that GF Rice Chex is available in most grocery stores, I no longer feel a need to go to the HFS, and pay the higher prices.

I'll have to check out the Larabars and cost now!!
I can get my Rice Chex cereal here for $ 2.48 a box. I stock up when I run out for that price.

Love
