...With Luna Bars!! Oh my goodness! Everyone on this site always raves about Luna Bars so I bought the Smore one (mainly because I was told that they were really sweet and I crave sweets!)and I loved it! I know its not real chocolate but to me it tasted like it! Those are the best things ever!

Glad you liked them! I believe I was the one who told you that I thought they were too sweet, but that's just me! I love the Nut and Cranberry one! The selection here in Canada is pretty limited though so I gotta take what I can get. The only other ones I see all the time are Lemon Zest and Caramel Chocolate (or is it Caramel Nut? I can't remember!) I know there are a lot more!

I like the nut & cranberry one for a quick breakfast now and then.

Oh, and steer clear of the Sunrise varieties. (I'm pretty sure that's what they are called. They're a different shape. I thought they were awful.

Oh yea, those are the best! I love all the "brown" varieties that have the words "caramel, nutz, and chocolate" in them :-). It's funny how some protein bars are so awesome and some disgusting. The other day the newsstand at the airport was handing out Soy Joy bars with every purchase of whatever. No wonder - they tasted like flavored cardboard .

I miss sweets the most, so when Erilyn told me that the Smore one was really sweet I went right for it! I will say though that I had the lemon zest one tonight and didnt like it too much. Waaaay to lemony and it kinda tasted "organic" you know? So I am sticking with the Smore and the other "Chocolate" ones. I am a bit nervous to try the "nut" varieties and the "peanut butter cookie" one just cause thats a pretty brave food for me to try. I havent had anything to do with nuts in months! But I really want to try that "Nuts over cranberries" one. Maybe I will be daring!

I am in love also! I recently tried them and I can't get enough. I like most of them except the berry one. It's too sweet and doesn't have that layer of chocolate on the bottom.

I wish I could eat those, but the soy in them triggers migraines for me.

Has anyone tried the luna tea cakes? I'm in the UK so i don't know if they sell them in stores in the US but was wondering what they are like. Check out luna bar web site for product info. If anyone has tried and liked them I might order some

I think I read on the website that they aren't available in Canada.

We have a few of the bars out here in my area - Nut and Cranberry, Smores, Lemon Zest, and Caramel Nut. It was the tea cakes that I meant weren't sold in Canada.

My favourite is the Nut and Cranberry! Love it! If I go to Washington again anytime soon I'll try to stock up on them as I'm sure they are probably cheaper there.

I just don't know how you guys can eat Luna bars without problems! They are VERY tasty, but man, I had THE WORST gas after eating one! Lasted for hours. I looked at the tea cakes but the carbs were way too high for my taste.
