Update: Contest Over

Up today is the oh so delicious and (mostly) paleo friendly Lara Bars. If you somehow have not heard of they are a brand of energy bar made from fruit, nuts and spices. Larabar’s are made from whole foods and each flavor contains no more than nine ingredients. They were created by Lara Merriken during a hike in the Rocky Mountains of Colorado. She wanted to create a “very healthy product that tasted delicious”. In that regard Lara hit a home run.
