Irritable Bowel Syndrome Message Boards | Honey peanut bar cookies

I got this recipe from my most recent copy of "Cooking for 2". I thought it looked IBS safe so I gave it a try and loved it. Even my fiance loved them and couldn't stop eating them.

1/2 cup sugar
1/2 cup honey
1/2 cup red fat peanut butter
3 cups Cheerios
1/2 cup peanuts (optional or you can easily substitute raisins or something which would also cut back on the calories and fat)

1. In a small saucepan, combine sugar and honey. Cook and stir over medium heat until sugar is dissolved.
2. Turn off heat and add peanut butter. Peanut butter should "melt".
3. Add cheerios and peanuts and stir to coat.
4. Spread into an 8 x 8 pan coated with cooking spray.

What do you guys think? Should it be IBS friendly? I didn't have any problems after eating them.
