Loc: Maine (IBS-A stable since July '05!)

If you're in an unstable period, I'd probably not try the Luna bars - they are soy-based, and soy can make people gassy, especially at first. But generally speaking, Luna bars are the ONLY safe ones that I know of. They contain an acceptable fat ratio and no dairy - most of the others have dairy.

If something is setting you off lately, you might look at the muffins and the reduced-fat Ritz. No trans-fat is good, but ANY fat content can trigger IBS attacks, especially if your system is already touchy from something else. We get these FABULOUS no-trans-fat, no-dairy, totally-vegan cookies at the HFS here, but I can't eat them because the fat grams are so high - something like 15g. As for the Ritz, I *think* even the reduced-fat ones have dairy in them. I could be wrong about that one, though, in which case you can just never mind me.

I was a diehard coffee drinker too. I drink Teeccino now when I'm at home and can brew something, and Cafix when I'm not home and/or just want a quick cup of something instant. Both are available at health food stores. Neither one really tastes like coffee, but to me they're a more acceptable substitute than herbal teas, which to me just taste awful.
