Larabar - gluten-free & soy, oat, & corn free - yay!

[LilyR]

And xanthan-free!

I just found something new I am happy about, so I wanted to share with everyone.  Larabars are gluten-free and also no corn, soy, or oats.  At least in the "original" bars anyway (they have different bars and bites that I have not checked out yet).  They have flavors like chocolate chip cookie dough,  banana chocolate chip, carrot cake, cashew cookie, cherry pie, apple pie, blueberry muffin, coconut, etc.   I wish my local store carried all the flavors, but so far I tried the cashew cookie and I love it. It was so good with an ice coffee.   I also tried the blueberry muffin, which did actually have a sort of muffin-like taste to it.  The chocolate chip cookie dough didn't taste like cookie dough or a cookie to me - it tasted like dates and chocolate, but was still good.  I really LOVE the cashew cookie.  My daughter tried a coconut cream pie one and liked it.  They were on sale in Market Basket, five for $5, although seeing boxes of them online they seem to average close to a dollar a piece or so in general.  They make a nice little treat just once in a while.  I have missed having something with coffee or tea sometimes. I used to like to have a biscotti or ginger snap or a few fig newtons every now and then with a cup of something hot, and I miss that. So I am really happy to stumble upon these bars.  No corn, soy, or oats, yay! No xanthan gum either.  Seems so many gluten-free products I find have at least one or more of those in it.  I bet kids might likes these too.  Just a fun little treat. They seem to be available at many grocery stores (not sure about drugstores), but also Walmart online and amazon sell them.  I look forward to trying more flavors.
