Granola Bars...

These are such a misconception and I see people eating them all the time!  Part of the problem with granola bars is their sheer ubiquity as an afternoon snack—and the organic promise that is on so many of these bars’ labels. Nearly all of them are loaded with processed carbs, dried fruit (which is high in sugar), and held together with even more sugar in the form of honey or even the health-nut favorite agave. Plus, they don’t contain much in the way of filling fiber and are often loaded with calories. Save them for the 10-mile hike if you must!
