HEB should have them. Look in the health/first aid/medicine section. They are usually by the diet drinks and protein powder.Quote:

I don't know that either one has them.
You can get them here - http://www.safezonellc.com/nutrition.html
I've worked for more than a few outfitters and Clif Bars have been one of the top sellers. My $0.02!
I like stuff like that to taste pretty bland. If it was good I would eat them all up instead of saving them for times of need.
My typical trail foods are jar of peanut butter, tortillias, flour, lentils (cook up faster than most beans), rice, jerky , pemmican, parched corn, Salteen crackers, beanie Weinies, vienna Sausages, summer sausage, cheese, spices, coffee or tea, perhaps sugar or honey.
I don't always carry all of them, but those are among the staples I build my trail food from. Depends on my other plans what i carry. For example fishing / floats I carry less meat stuff and things that go with fish, usually rice .
Peanut butter and a tupperware of flour or corn tortillias are just common most times. I can slap peanut butter on a cracker or tortillia , and shove it down while brewing up some tea or just drink some water and boom I'm done and moving again.
Longer trips or such Ill carry like bisquick or flour so I can make bannock or some other and often add in some preserves or such.
I only keep the trail bars for last ditch food / emergencies and I like most of em so they get eaten just because and don't hang around to long.
A spoon full of peanut butter is a good alternative but it also has the advantage of keeping me from talking for a while. Now if they just made some for keyboards to slow down me having an opinion on everything.
Thad.
Bland? In times of trouble comfort foods are one of the few luxuries you can stock up on now to make the trouble times a little less troublesome.
So if you just chug down a package of "just add water oatmeal" then drink a hot cup of coffee, will it just fill you up when it soaks up the coffee?......
That had me sneezing just thinking about it.
I am lactose intolerant and Cliff bars are one of the few energy bars that don't rely on milk products - namely lactose sugars! -to provide calories. Luna bars are good too.
I would be a dead man if I were lactose intolerant. I drink slightly less than 2 gallons of milk a week. It's my mostest favoritest beverage next to coffee.
I too, am glad I'm not lactose intolerant...or latex intolerant.
Whoa. I'm not even gonna ask about that one.

We all make choices in life. I was thinking more along.......

Mrs. Crash is NOT going to be happy about this. No sir. Not one little bit. You might be better off with the first one.
I like the white chocolate macadamia the best also. Bars are our breakfast during hunting season.Quote:

I love Cliff bars! I always have a few on the trail and I usually bring some to work with me at least a few days a week.
I can't imagine being on a diet where those are considered bland. Though, there are many things I just can't eat due to being WAY to sweet...
I eat a very healthy diet and while on the trail I try to get the most "bang for my buck" nutritionally.
Someone mentioned Vienna sausages... Ever look at the nutritional info for them? You sure ain't getting much of the good stuff your body needs.
I rotated the stuff in one of my vehicles Tuesday and there were six Clif Bars in there that were a year old. They've been in there in some terribly hot weather through this summer. Last winter wasn't too cold for winters around here but the bars were still good and tasted fine.
Every year I find last years snacks in the pockets of my hunting stuff......mostly not too bad....we will see how the Cliff bars are.....found some at Sam's Club in LA last winter.
The cheese and crackers seem to get a tad 'mealy", and mashed up.....(how hungry are you?,...... beats bugs and worms)...but the Nutri bars and hard candy weather well.
