Luna Bars 1 Bar

Pros: Maybe it's healthy
Cons: But it doesn't taste good!

On my quest to find a fairly nutritious snack that tastes good, my taste buds are stumbling over several things that have left them protesting loudly. The second energy/nutrition bar I am reviewing is Clif Luna S'Mores.

When I...

Pros: Has lots of essential vitamins and minerals
Cons: Tastes remarkably like sawdust

Okay, let me start off by saying that when I had occasion to eat a Luna bar last week, I wasn't aware that it was designed specifically for women. In fact, I didn't find that out until just now, when I looked the Luna bar up on Epinions to write...

Pros: high energy -raises your blood sugar
Cons: taste, can ruin your day, soy blocks mineral absorption...

I used to love Luna bars, so many of their delicious flavors like Sweet Dreams, Chai Tea, Peanut Butter and Jelly, Toasted Nuts ‘n’ Cranberries…I even gave them five stars in my review like many other reviewers have done. I’ve deleted ...

Pros: its designed for women, and it has vitamins and minerals
Cons: tastes BAD full of simple sugars

I get suspicious whenever something is marketed at a specific group, and Luna bars are marketed at ME!
If you know anything about nutrition, you would put the bar down and eat some real food, because this thing is not a good substitute. The fact...

Pros: Has vitamins that are good for you.
Cons: Tough, dense texture is hard to chew. Lack of flavor. Soy isn't tasty.

I read about Luna bars on the internet on some health food message boards and heard people raving about them. I believed what I read, and assumed that Luna bars were a wonderful healthful gift to women. So I ordered a box of 15 directly off the internet....

Pros: Great tasting. Loaded with nutrients to optimize women's health.
Cons: Contains large amounts of rice products. Suspect all the nutrients go to waste.

Who should try Luna?
LUNA nutritional bars are made by Clif Bar Inc. These bars are marketed as “the whole nutrition bar for women”. LUNA bars are made of all natural ingredients and fortified with vitamins and minerals. I might recommend...

Pros: Filled me up.
Cons: A little dry and hard to swallow for me.

I recently subscribed to SHAPE magazine. I love to keep fit and exercise regularly. I may be 52 years old but plan to stay trim. I have my home gym, heated pool and hot tub. My husband and I love to ride our bikes and walk to.

I was...

Pros: Lots of beneficial vitamins for women
Cons: Super Sweet

And to me that is not a good thing. I was surprised to see all the rave reviews for these bars, so it may just be the flavor I tried -- S'mores. Similar to a hardened rice krispy treat with a strong flavor of overly sweet brown rice syrup. Since I'm a...

Pros: Reasonably priced, nutritious
Cons: Not very edible, at least for enjoyment

The nutritional bar line touted for women is the Luna. While these bars come in many flavors, eight in all, don't let those delicious sounding names fool you! While the Luna bars may be nutritious, packed with 23 vitamins &...

Pros: The taste is alright
Cons: Texture, texture, texture

I have had two luna bars, one being lemon and the other being so unremarkable I don't remember the flavor. I've had these recommended to me, and am always on the search for a new energy bar.

The flavor of the bars were ok, but if you're like...

Pros: Better than others of its ilk
Cons: Not as good as a candy bar

"Those look interesting" my wife said to me as we stood in line at our local Health food store. "Those" were the row of Clif Luna Bars in the stand next to the register.

Billed as "The Whole Nutrition Bar...

Pros: Basically a good nutrition bar. No excessive amount of sugars.
Cons: S'mores are extra cruncy, so take care when biting into these.

I was in our local health food store today, and spotted these nutrition bars. The fact that they are another product by Clif I grabbed a couple of the LUNA bars as I was curious to try them. I remember enjoying the Clif bars, and had given them...

Pros: some of the bars are pretty good; a good company; nutritional value
Cons: 'Tropical Crisp' shouldn't even be served on Death Row

After the wonderful comments people left on my review of (easy, stomach) Clif Bars, I began to cast around for another sort of energy bar to try. I'd tried Kashi bars and Power Bars, but I wanted to do a review of something I wasn't ...

Pros: Healthy, with essential vitamins and minerals, energy boosting
Cons: When you can taste the vitamins, some find that taste refreshing (like slim-fast)

I first tried Luna Bars at the MS Walk, honestly at that point I could tell why they were donated to the plethera of health-food gracing the snack stand. Fitting the bill of every other thing that is "good for you", Luna Bars taste was not exactly what...

Pros: taste, nutritional value, donates money to the Breast Cancer Fund
Cons: silly marketing campaign, very low energy boost

As I was standing there in the grocery store reading the label on this fancy Luna Bar package, I was busy trying to figure out what the difference was between a sports nutrition bar for the human race and a sports nutrition bar designed specifically for...
