the little bar that could

Larbars: The holy grail of bars. Readily available, perfect combination of protein/fat/sweet, elusive new flavors (chocolate chip cherry torte, blueberry muffin). The chocolate chip peanut butter is my hands down-go to. But sometimes you need to branch out.
Just Great Stuff-Chocolate Covered Greens
I only see these ever so often at the health food store on Cortelyou. They are kind of larabar-ish, but with actual vegetables thrown in and then covered in chocolate. Betty Lou is famous for her nut butter balls, but these need to be on more shelves.
Tanabar- Vermont's answer to nut-free
I have a vision of the perfect chocolate chip granola bar. It's chewy without hurting your teeth, the chocolate chips are for real, it's sweet enough to satisfy-but healthy enough to absolve the guilt. Tanabar has fulfilled my dream! Thanks to a tip off from a work colleague, these bars were inconspicuously located on the bottom shelf of the corner bodega. The sunflower butter, brown sugar, and wheat germ almost bring this bar to cookie heights . I want to try the other flavors, but have a feeling I will stick with chocolate chip.
