When I drink green tea I get a little loopy. I don't know if I steep it too long or what; my purveyor of fine teas says I drink them too fast and my blood pressure drops, which is an interesting theory. Anyway, it makes the idea of this bar feel a little bit dangerous; contains green tea extract! And he's drinking coffee! Go ahead and dial the 9 and the 1!
This bar is remarkably bland. There's a little icing stripe which adds some sweetness but I'm honestly left with almost zero aftertaste. Sort of a dry finish, too. The texture is just 'clif bar' to me at this point, but the taste of this bar is markedly different and sort of strange; I don't really get the toffee taste. Its slightly sweet and peanutty with this crazy drop off dry mouth finish. I probably won't buy this one again, but it is an interesting experience. I guess we'll see how hyped up on caffeine I am after this and a cup o' joe. I feel like I might bounce around like daffy duck or something wooHOOwooHOOwooHOO!

This is a sort of cross between a cereal bar and a granola bar; softer than granola, crunchier than a cereal bar. It's quite agreeable, as if they were making granola bars for the elderly, or children. I could just pleasantly gum my way though this thing, nom nom nom. It's peanutty with a completely ineffectual chocolate drizzle, nom nom nom. Seems very familiar somehow, hmmm.
Oh, dang, it's really almost identical to a store-bought peanut butter cookie. The soft kind with peanuts in it you might have had at a church function or at school or something. Presumably its better for you than that, so score!
