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.

Lemon is by far the best flavor in my opinion.

      Thank you so much for sharing your experience and I found myself giggling with happiness as I read how your body reached such spring! And I hope that your current journey is also successful!! Definitely starting the food diary! So many amazing advices. And it’s very scary. It really hits all our soft spots as well as our confidence system. Most doctors I went thought I was underage despite being in my late 20s. Right now I look like am I twelve, but is also this body that’s taking so much, so I might as well love it too! Going to make the necessary changes and stay in this path. Thank you again! 🫶

      Thank you so much for the information and kind message! Reading this transformed how I’ve been viewing my efforts and progress. Guess there’s still a lot to celebrate and also heal 😌  Yes, I’ve been taking it! Just recently started taking a multivitamin supplement and separated vitamin D! I also took chewable Iron polymaltose for ferritin deficiency 2 months ago but was unable to absorb any of it.  Thank you again! Hearing such gentle words from the community makes my body and heart more patient and excited for the future.

      Taken Seriously

      By Scott Adams · Posted

      Your post demonstrates the profound frustration and isolation that so many in the Celiac community feel, and I want to thank you for channeling that experience into advocacy. The medical gaslighting you endured for decades is an unacceptable and, sadly, a common story, and the fact that you now have to "school" your own GI specialist speaks volumes about the critical lack of consistent and updated education. Your idea to make Celiac Disease a reportable condition to public health authorities is a compelling and strategic one. This single action would force the system to formally acknowledge the prevalence and seriousness of the disease, creating a concrete dataset that could drive better research funding, shape medical school curricula, and validate the patient experience in a way that individual stories alone often cannot. It is an uphill battle, but contacting representatives, as you have done with Adam Gray, is exactly how change begins. By framing it as a public health necessity—a matter of patient safety and protection from misdiagnosis and neglect—you are building a powerful case. Your voice and your perseverance, forged through thirty years of struggle, are exactly what this community needs to ensure that no one else has to fight so hard just to be believed and properly cared for.
