The protein bars I almost never eat, I try one every so often and I don’t understand the appeal of them.
Sometimes I do buy granola bars, I like one of the Kashi crunchy bars, and there is another brand that has a chewy granola bar with some nuts and fruit that I like. I take them on trips usually, or buy them for my husband as a snack for work and wind up eating a couple myself. Maybe I buy a box every two months.
I have never made them at home, unless you count rice crispy squares, but I have thought about making my own granola bars. A neighbor of mine when I was little used to make her own.
We also buy pop tarts, I rarely eat them, but my husband goes through about a box every two weeks.
