What kind did you have?  (Some are better than others.)

Mmm i love chocolate peppermint.

Caramel Nut Brownie,  Did I just get the wrong one ? Are there better ones ? cuz that one was bad !!!

Huh - caramel nut brownie is one of the ones I really like.  Different preferences, I guess.

I also like the cookies and cream and dulce de leche.  The chocolate pecan pie is okay, but nothing to rave about.

my mum used to buy me Luna bars when i was little as a tie-me-over snack before dinner or what not (before she found out about all that isolated soy protein!) and i loved them.. now however i cant stand them and i think they taste like flavoured chalk.

I think they're really tasty if you don't overdo it.. Favorite flavors: Chocolate peppermint stick and Caramel Nut Brownie (the best!)  I don't really like the other flavors though.

I love the lemon, and can't find orange anywhere. Not as crazy about the chocolate ones, as Exitemergency said, they taste a little chalky. However, they are better than most of the balanced nutritional bars. And are great when I have to work funky hours and can't get to eat as nutritionally as I would like.

I had like a blueberry morning one or something and I thought it tasted like wallpaper paste. Or chalk. Yuck. I'll stick to fruit. Special K bars are good too and ya know what? They dont have any HFCS, which surprised me. They may be small but theyre tasty.

I had one for the first time today too. It was good. It was Cookies N Cream.

Hmm. I was all excited to try the Caramel Nut Brownie, as they didn't have that kind two years ago when I first bought them (then stopped when I stopped eating breakfast and regained 50 lbs gee I wonder if those things were related). Anyhoo I was greatly disappointed.

I highly prefer the Nutz Over Chocolate, yummo, and the Lemon is tasty but a little too sweet. They all have the same kind of texture though, so if that's what you didn't like, they will all disappoint you.

I see you're in Canada too. I've only seen 6 different flavours here. All the best ones are only available in the States (like Chai Tea... MMMM).

korali, i don't like caramel nut brownie either. my favorites are peanut butter cookie,  chocolate peppermint, and chocolate raspberry. however, they do have a sort of texture that i could see why some dislike. if its just the taste, try a different kind. theyre not supposed to be like a candy bar, more like a nutritious type thing.

I also tried a Luna Bar for the first time today .... and it was caramel nut brownie too!  AND I LOVED IT Smile so yummy

The Special K bars are surprisingly filling. I often grab one on the way to my early morning paper route. I used to think they wouldn't fill me and I'd have to eat a few, but they are in fact so dense (Chocolate and choc+peanut butter specifically) and flavorful that I can't eat that much. I can't eat many sweets though, becuase they make my stomach do flip flops. (cheese popcorn on the other hand.. lol)

ugh, yeah, i didn't like carmel nut brownie either.  mind you, i don't like dark chocolate, at all.

try nutz over chocolate...amazing.

Maybe i was expecting something diffrent, I dont know ... I think it did kinda taste like chocolate mixed with chalk =)

Ill have to try a diffrent kind next time i guess =)

i LOVE luna bars! my favorite is the iced oatmeal raisin.. i absolutely love oatmeal cookies and thats what this reminds me of! i think if you're expecting a super sweet and delicious dessert then you would be dissappointed when you first try a luna. but because they taste good AND are good for you it really is an awesome treat!

I used to eat Luna bars every day for breakfast. I finally broke the addiction like 3 weeks ago and I'm not trying some new breakfast alternatives. But I still love them. The Chai Tea ones are my favorite! If I see them at the store I have to buy them...so good....

Has anyone tried the Zone Perfect bars? They tastes great to me and very filling. Perfect for when you are on the go! Great with milk as a meal too!
