Andrew Weil, that gray bearded health guru, has teamed up with Nature’s Path, the health food maker, to introduce a line of snack bars.  They come in five flavors:  Banana Manna, Chocolada Walnut, Pistachi-oh!, Goji Moji, and Chia Razz.  All the bars are vegetarian and trans-fat free.  They range in calorie content from 170-190, and they have 4-5 grams of fiber per bar.

They are relatively new, so many health food stores may not yet have them; however, you can order them from Amazon.  A box of 16 bars is a bargain at $25 (with free shipping) from Amazon.  Most other places have them at over $30 plus shipping.

So how do they taste?  I haven’t been able to get my hands on all the flavors yet; however, I did buy the Chocolada Walnut type.  I was a little disappointed in the size (45 grams), especially with the 190 calorie count.  If you are looking for a really chocolate flavor, this is not the one.  It has a stronger vanilla flavor, but I have to say that it was tasty.  I’d eat them again sometime, but at that price, both financial and caloric, I wouldn’t seek them out.  So that’s the scoop on this newest health food.  Cheers!
