To tell you the truth, the only flavor I don't like is the Peanut Butter and Jelly one. The rest are yummy!

I do too. I eat several a week. The toasted nuts and cranberries has only 3 grams of fat and is very good (more like a traditional granola bar). I eat those mostly because of the fat content but I like the peppermint stick best. I have never met a Luna bar I didn't like. My husband loves them too and I tease him that 'they have all the nutrients your female body needs,' but he doesn't seem to mind.

"You absolutely must eat insoluble fiber foods, and as much as safely possible, but within the IBS dietary guidelines. Treat insoluble fiber foods with suitable caution, and you'll be able to enjoy a wide variety of them, in very healthy quantities, without problem." Please eat IF foods!

My husband won't eat them because they say 'The Whole Nutrition Bar for Women'. Like they are poisen for men or something.

I've been looking over the Luna bars and not all of them are safe, many have high insoluble fiber. The Lemon Zest has 3g soluble fiber and 0g insoluble fiber. But it also has 5 grams of fat. Is 3g soluble fiber enough to make 5g of fat safe to eat or should I be having the bar in combination with another high soluble food?

I am not a fan of the lemon flavor, but I do fine with almost all the flavors. I can't do the peppermint stick on an empty stomach, but otherwise, they are safe for me w/out extra food.

Careful - Lemon Zest Luna bars contain inulin. You may want to read what Heather says about inulin.
