Go feed them to the cows. Don't even have to unwrap them, they don't care. 

No need.. they're gone now. I ate all of them! If I skip dinner I'll be golden! Maybe I can eat the box they came in for dinner. How many calories and carbs are in cardboard? 

Probably quite a few carbs, but it's likely low-cal...  

Well the first ones were the nature valley ones I buy right? Even though my weight is still up (which I'm kinda shocked about) I have been using those even when I was down. But 1 per day woman! I only bring one with me and usually don't crave them at night. I stopped buying all the other bars, these seem to be agreeing with me more. They can be very dangerous though! I'm allowing myself one this afternoon because I am taking my a$$ to the gym after work! 

Those were fiber one bars.. They're only 130 calories and they're chocolate and caramel and nuts... omg good. I'm gonna stink everyone out of the house again tonight though. Nothin sexier than farting in front of your hubby when you're curled up watching duck dynasty! 

I love the Nature Valley Protein bars (the peanut butter/dark chocolate ones) and then I decided to try the new Fiber One bars with protein... BAD IDEA!!!! Yes, they are delicious, but like you said, they make quite a stink!!! I didn't realize it the last 2 days, just thought it was a strange coincidence, but now that you mention it, I've had a Fiber One bar for breakfast the last 3 days instead of my NV Protein bar, and I've been super stinky at night!! Luckily I just blame it on the dog, but I don't think I'm fooling anyone.. ha!! 

Snort LOL! Oh mercy! I found the Nature Valley Sweet & Salty Almond bars at Walgreens last night! They were on sale! I bought 4 boxes! Yea, that should last me about a month. ONE PER DAY LIMIT! 

The fiberone bars were on sale! 2 for $5. I bought 2.. I ate 2. I wonder if I'll only stink for 2 days.. 

Well, at least the cows won't mind too much I'd think. I have to be careful taking the fiber bars to work because I'm in a testing room with candidates and it has to be really quiet. I think if I eat any there it might be "distracting" or rather the afterwards would be!  

Ugh yeah, I have to only bring one protein bar into work. I actually had one here Mon-Tues and didn't eat it - I forgot it was there! Of course I remembered today and ate it! The fiber one stuff seriously gets me... makes my stomach a mess :( 

I cut out all that stuff and only eat the Atkins bars now. I still have to try to remember to stick to one a day because those too can be addictive! 

Can't do atkins bars either. I'll eat an entire box of them too and those suckers are expensive! 

I tried. Yes, they are expensive. That's part of what keeps me from eating too many. It stinks being broke, but if it keeps me from overeating, then it's not all bad. lol 

The nature valley ones are a better balance of protein to carb with a decent amount of fiber so I stopped buying the fiber one bars awhile ago. I get the 90 cal ones for the kids now and then but that's about it. Erika yes the dark choc almond are awesome. Walmart had a new one that's a salted carmel nut. Unfortuantely they aren't at my normal grocery store so I'll have to make a run for a few boxes. They were good but hubby and son like them better that the reg sweet and salty and lord knows they both need more protein. They are high on the cal side but my son snacks less when he eats one and feels like it's a snickers lol. So I'll take it! 

I've never tried the nature valley protein bars, but I have a feeling they wouldn't last if I had them around. The fiber one protein bars are okay, but kind of blah, so I'm not too tempted. But, give me a jar of peanut butter or anything with peanut butter in it and I have no willpower. We all have our weaknesses. 

Hey, at least the tempting treats are gone now! :) 

Lol,I call them FARTBAR ONE! They give painful gas.And sever smelling air-biscuits! 

I like the salted caramel ones too, but for some reason I don't like them as much as the chocolate/PB ones! (And I'm not even that big of a chocolate fan!!) I have one for breakfast every day during the work week.. I should probably look into making my own somehow with some protein powder and save some money! 

They always give me gas..LOL...:O) 

Then you guys shouldn't try Cascadian Farm Dark Chocolate Almond Granola Cereal. It is so good with some Almond Milk!
