The cereal bars have 7 GRAMS OF SUGAR EACH!!!!!
Michele, I wonder if the standards for these bars are going to be
Maggie, I might agree with you, EXCEPT that the bars only have 3 grams of fiber each, and look at this list of ingredients,
This is from the chocolate one:
Ingredients: SOY NUGGETS (SOY PROTEIN ISOLATE, TAPIOCA STARCH, SALT), SUGAR, MALTITOL SYRUP, FRACTIONATED PALM KERNEL OIL, SOY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, ROASTED SOY NUTS, CORN SYRUP, OLIGOFRUCTOSE (FOR FIBER), EVAPORATED CANE JUICE INVERT SYRUP, SUNFLOWER OIL, MALTITOL, BROWN RICE SYRUP, COCOA (PROCESSED WITH ALKALI), NONFAT MILK, MILK PROTEIN CONCENTRATE, COCOA, CALCIUM CASEINATE, CALCIUM CARBONATE, TRICALCIUM PHOSPHATE, LACTOSE, SALT, SOY LECITHIN, BUTTER , DEXTROSE, WHEY, NATURAL FLAVOR, PALM OIL, CITRIC ACID, MONO- AND DIGLYCERIDES, ARTIFICIAL FLAVOR, COCOA BUTTER, CARAMEL COLOR, FERRIC PHOSPHATE (SOURCE OF IRON), NIACINAMIDE, SUCRALOSE (SWEETENER), ZINC OXIDE (SOURCE OF ZINC), MAGNESIUM CARBONATE, VITAMIN B6, VITAMIN A PALMITATE, RIBOFLAVIN (VITAMIN B2), THIAMIN MONONITRATE VITAMIN B1),VITAMIN B12.
At least when we eat cereal we're getting calcium from milk also....

Are those ingredients from the meal replacement bars or the ceareal bars? There are two different "bar" products - one is sold individually as a "meal replacement bar" and the other is in a box of 6 (or 8?) and is called "High Protein Cereal Bars"
Those ingredients just look an awful lot like the ones from the meal replacement bars, but I don't have the other ingredients handy for the cereal bars. If I remember right the cereal bars looked like they had better ingredients.

MichaelAnn, those are the ingredients and nutritional info from the Chocolate High Protein Cereal Bars. Not the meal bars.
Michele from PA
Michele, thanks for sharing all that detail....
Yuck!
Wow, I already knew the meal replacement bars were pretty bad as far as ingredients, but for some reason I thought the cereal bars were much better - guess not, the ingredients are almost EXACTLY the same!

Hey Chele, thank you very much!
Maggie, I remember the story. You look beautiful, and I agree, Chris is definitely eye candy. He has a very "rugged" look, which is the type of guy I go for. I like the blue collar type. My DH Charlie has rough hands, which I LOVE!!!
You are both such an inspiration, thanks for sharing your pics, and your knowledge. Looking forward to seeing more pics. The new gown design sounds awesome, I love to step "out of the box" and do something different from everyone else.
It's funny that you called me Chele. My Grandfather called me that, (and Chelly) and he passed away more than 10 years ago. He was the only person that ever called me anything other than Michele. It was a nice memory to be called that again. :)
Be good, talk soon!
Michele
