Been trying these for quick snack. They are made with dates as sugar and basic ingredients. They are not great but good for healthy options.

I’ve also been eating both lately as healthy snacks. I like the flavor of rx bars better but find the texture too chewy. Overall they are better than Lara bars in my opinion.

The Rx bars are great. Blueberry is my favorite. Stay far away from pumpkin spice.

Blueberry Rx is by far the GOAT “healthy” bar.

The Peanut Butter LARABAR is really good, some of the others are pretty hit or miss.

I like that one

The last box of chocolate sea salt I bought had an off texture. Hope it was a glitch and not a sign of the future with Kellogg buying them.

I'm as much of a basic white girl as a grown arse man can get and still be straight. I like some starbucks pumpkin spice and I'm not afraid to admit it. I took one bite of that Rx bar and threw it out .

If you eat enough Rx bars they all start tasting like dates

The Chocolate Sea Salt RX Bar is pretty good! I can't eat a whole one at one time though, it's too rich or sweet or something, but a few bites here and there I can take.

Lara Bar has boxes of bite sized bars - I think the flavors are Apple Pie, Peanut Butter, Peanut Butter Chocolate, and Cashew Cookie...all were ok, but I liked the small sizes.

That's how I feel about the Lara bars. Dates. No matter the "flavor", it all just tastes like dates. And they're mostly sugar.....so maybe a better choice if your other option was a Mounds, but not really much else. Cherry pie flavor, for example: 200 calories, 30 g carbs, 23 g sugar, 4 g fiber, 5 g protein.

The Mounds: 240 calories, 28 g carbs, 20 g sugar, 3 g fiber, 2 g protein. Mounds gives you 13 g of fat, which is a good thing, as it will slow the absorption of all that sugar!

Haven't tried the RX bars....but too many of those food-like-bars are way close to candy in profile.
