I like the chocolate flavor very much. I like most of the other flavors too, but I usually put nut butter on all of them, so I'm probably not the best at distinguishing between the flavors. The only one I don't care for is the Cherry flavor and THAT is mostly because I seem to get a tummy ache when I eat them.

I've never tried the Cashew Cookie flavor, but I like the Pecan Pie, and the Ginger one.

I like the Apple Pie ones and the Cherry Pie ones.

They're not my favorite of all the gluten-free bars, but I do kinda like the Apple Pie flavor.

Depends on who ya ask! ;-) These seem to vary by person, whether you like them or not. I like the chocolate coconut, apple pie, and ginger snap flavors. I distinctly dislike the cherry pie flavor, and am pretty ambivalent on the cashew cookie and banana flavors. If they're available, I'd pick up Clif Nectar bars over these, myself. Or Ruth's Flax bars.

Two of my daughters LOVE them. I think they're okay. When my husband tried one he said, "You're cross is way too heavy for me to bear." I take that to mean he hated them ... one bite, and he gave the rest away.

I like all the ones I tried...especially cherry pie.

I'm allergic to pecans and walnuts, so of the ones I can eat, I think they're gross. And they aren't good for my blood sugar. Sorry, they're too sweet and oddly textured for me.

Yup, I agree with Tiffany, I really like the Clif Nectar bars....the berry one especially and I order them by the case...

I LOVE the banana cookie myself. Don't care much for the other flavors.

Well, I tried the Cherry Pie and after 1 bite, I threw it out. I do have an Apple Pie one to try, but I have been hesitant to try it. I think the Pecan Pie sounds good. Maybe I'll have it for snack today and give it another try.

lara bars have a unique taste ---can't say they are wonderful but I do eat them. My fav is the boomi bar. Lara bars has a new line called maya bars. I had a choc mint one and it was fairly good. If anyone is new a whole foods thay have these on special quite often.

2nd on the Clif Nectar bars -- particularly the lemon one whose name I don't remember. I've been patiently waiting for the local market to restock them, but now I think I'm going to have to order some myself.

Yes, good taste, different texture. Not sure I can get over the texture.

I LOVE the banana one. I get the chocolate one when my brownie cravings are unbearable. Chocolatey, chewy, does the job.

FYI - I called the company that makes ZonePerfect bars yesterday and they said that they have 7 gluten-free flavors. Chocolate almond raisin, chocolate coconut crunch (I like these), chocolate raspberry, fudge graham, mango orange, peanut toffee, and strawberry yogurt.

Just tried the Clif bars for the first time ... they are much better than the Lara bars IMHO. The Lara bars taste good, but it is the texture that is strange. I still like the Bumblebars the best, but the Clif ones went better with my chai at Starbucks today.

I am currently eating one of the new Maya bars by Larabar. It's good. I got the chocolate mint flavor. I think I still prefer Clif Nectar, but these seem to be a little more filling for some reason. I have absolutely no ounce of hunger left after eating this. It's nice to have more options too.

I ate a cliff nectar the other day and it didn't even dent my hunger...but it was tasty!

Lemon is by far the best flavor in my opinion.

      Nausea

      I have trouble with nausea. It often starts when I’m anxious about something (home repairs, sick dog) but continues long after the home is repaired or the dog is healthy again. When it happens I eat less and lose weight. My gastroenterologist suggested ginger or peppermint tea. I don’t know if that will work or not because I haven't had the problem since she...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Of course my son is on a 100% gluten free diet. I wish his symptoms were not debilitating as there are right now. He cannot work, even when a miniscule of cross contamination occurs. It's not just GI distress, but intense fatigue, brain fog, depression, anxiety, insomnia, etc. It's literally neurological inflammation. Not to be taken lightly here. We...

      Nicotine Gum For Gluten Symptoms.. Am I Crazy?

      Have you tried AN-PEP enzymes, for example, GlutenX (who is a sponsor here)? A lot of research has shown that it can break down small amounts of gluten in the stomach, before it reaches the intestines. It might be a better approach than risking nicotine addiction, and the questionable research around this. I also hope that he’s trying to be 100% Gluten-F...

      Nausea

      Hi all I was diagnosed Coeliac a few years ago and follow a gluten free diet. The list of foods that I can eat without a problem grows shorter on a weekly basis. [I also have diabetes and asthma also]. BUT the reason I am posting this is because I seem to struggle with nausea quite a lot, which is really quite debilitating, and I was wondering...

      Hello  I'm not sure what to think . Seems no matter what I do I get sick. I had some yogurt with only 2 grams of sugar and is labeled gluten free ...the strawberry version seemed to really set me off My jaw is burning as well as my stomach and my feet.  Horrible pain..plus acid reflux and nausea... sensitivity to touch pain. ..yikes !! I don't know if it's from the lactose in the yogurt or if I'm getting an ulcer  This condition can make you question yourself quite a bit.  Then if you are not sure the anxiety comes 😞 Does any of these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? The neuropathy is quite intense.  What do you eat or drink after this happens  Open to suggestions  Thank you
