I keep forgetting to write about my new favorite snack find. While I was in Charleston I went to a yoga class (with my fabulous hostess Freida Sokol) at a studio called Holy Cow. It turns out that Ken, one of the instructors there, makes and sells what he calls Grawnola bars.
Now, I’ve been looking for the perfect snack bar to take on trips. But the raw food varieties i’ve tried have either been too sweet or too crumbly. This one is a tad sweet, but not too much, and doesn’t crumble when you bite into it. Ken doesn’t have the official nutritional information but when pushed he estimates 6g of sugar in each bar. That’s a miracle.
You can get more info and order bars here (they take checks and Paypal):

And here’s what the bar looks like.

I don’t leave home without one of these in my bag!
