Larabars vs Luna bars


Quote  |  Reply

Which of these do you prefer? I have never had a larabar before, and am unsure whether or not I should buy some, since they don't have as much calcium content as the Luna bars. As far as the flavors of the Luna bars go, I like the ones that have a fruity or nutty flavor in them the most, like toasted nutz & cranberry and chocolate pecan pie. Will I like the larabars?

Awesome!  I will look for the Cashew cookie next time I go shopping then =]

OK guys - I tried a Luna Bar and hated it.  It was all oaty and gross.  I want something more chewy like a soft brownie/cakey/fudgy texture rather than an otameal cookie texture.  Are Larabars more that?  Because they look really good on their website and I'm thinking about getting one tomorrow.  But I don't really want to waste 200 calories on a piece of crap I don;t even enjoy like I did with the luna bar. 

Also I'm a big sweets fan and love chocolate & cinnamon flavors, so which flavor do you recommend I get?

Yeah, Larabars are definitely more chewy.  However, all their fruity flavors just taste like one gigantic date, which you probably wouldn't like.  I would say try their jocalat bars if you're looking for a chocolate flavor, but I hear mixed reviews on that, and I haven't tried it myself yet.  I also have yet to try the cinnamon flavor as well, but I think the nutty one is great so far : D

I've had most of the different larabar flavors and I think that the cashew cookie is by far the best!

OMG...thank God I found these and listened to you guys and tried the larabars.  they are SOOOO good.  So much better than any other bar I've ever tried.  I also tried the Jocalat bar and all i can say is WOW!

luna bars. clif bars. mmm.

I absolutely love luna bars. They have every flavor you could ever want, and they are so filling and easy to travel with. A luna bar and an apple is my quint essential grab and go breakfast. They are also great pre workout for those early morning workout sessions. 

I tried the larabar cashew cookie - it was kind of disappointing. I had such high hopes for it!! Any other flavors of larabar that are highly recommended?

LUNA BARSSSS without a doubt. personally i cannot even stand the taste of larabar's. they're grosss. luna bars are amazing

 I agree!

However, the Larabars have pure, simple ingredients which is always nice. But I tried like 6 different flavors that were all nasty to me.

I like them both, but I have to say that Larabars win my heart. They are an easy delicious way to get my intake of healthy fats in without having to eat handfuls of nuts. 

The cashew cookie and apple pir flavours are my favourites.
