Since I had a pretty intensive workout (HRM says I burned 550 cals!), I had half a Cliff Bar… The flavor was Banana Nut Bread and unfortunately, it was the first Cliff Bar flavor that I was not a fan of… In fact, if I knew I’d be eating dinner soon, I think I would have stopped eating it :/ I threw the other half out… Note to self – don’t buy that flavor! It is miserable here right now… dark, dreary, and rainy! I am waiting for Bill then we are heading over to his friend’s house for dinner… We are getting Outback, yes I know, probably the worst place to go, but I am determined to make it healthy and order the salmon without the butter/seasonings, have the steamed veggies on side (no butter here either), and a house salad… Hopefully I don’t give into temptation!

Ugh…sorry to hear it didn’t taste good! I always go for the banana nut flavored bars, but I’ve never tried the Clif kind, and I’m glad I read your review of it before actually trying one out!
Have you tried the banana nut odwalla bars? Those are simply amazing…definitely one of my favorite bars of all time.
Have a great weekend!

Emma ~ Yeah I am a huge fan of banana nut bread too, but I think it was too artificial tasting for me, which was surprising for a Cliff bars…
Romina ~ What flavor of Larabar do you recommend? I’ve been dying to try them
Betsy ~ Yeah I was shocked too!!! But I agree, I love the pb chocolate chip too
I have to try the maple nut ones, I haven’t seen them yet… They are definitely my fave snack for a workout!
Betsy says:
banana nut really is an awful clif bar. i had it before and hated it…but i’m not sure why i bought it in the first place considering i hate banana nut bread!! my fav clif bar is peanut chocolate chip and the maple nut. i’ve found that half a clif bar along with a banana are the perfect snack before a long run. As long as you get the right kind of clif bar…
Romina says:
I had a bite of a Clif bar once… I hated it, too bad I had a few. I had to give them to my mom who seemed to enjoy it. Now I just eat “Raw Organic Food Bar” or Larabars. Yum!
Emma says:
oh my gosh…i usually love anything flavored like banana bread…it’s one of my all time fav foods…too bad that didn’t turn out well!
