Well, it seems I'll eat anything. That ingredient list is pretty scary, no? I'm just glad the corn dextrin was the resistant kind, because that non-resistant stuff is just not good enough!
This is sort of a peanut bar sitting on a little bed of peanut butter. It is nice and chewy unlike peanut bars of old, the peanut butter gives it some body and the overall effect is very granola-bar like despite the fact that this is really about 80% peanuts. I am a peanut fan, so I admit I like this bar. Its not really far off from a payday bar, and has about the same nutritional value. Sadly, the ingredients list (note: I got this from the internet, not the package so it may not be totally accurate) on the payday bar is shorter:
Peanuts, Sugar, Corn Syrup, Partially Hydrogenated Vegetable Oil, Nonfat Milk, Salt, Mono- and Diglycerides, Egg Whites, TBHQ, Soy Protein, Citric Acid
So there ya go. You can have your old-fashioned partially hydrogenated vegetable oil or your newfangled fractionated palm kernel oil, but it all basically turns out the same.
