Should be Registered with the EPA as Methane Producers
WARNING:  Don't eat one of these if you intend being around other human beings (or small pets (or open flames)) starting 2 hours after ingestion and for an additional 3 hours after that.  The gas production is flabbergasting.  I mean it.  Fog horns come to mind.  Non-stop.<br /><br />Now that that's out of the way, these "Fiber One Oats & Chocolate Chewy Bars" are very tasty and satisfying.  They're moist and chewy, not dry and hard.  The chocolate flavor is very good and predominates (as it should since chocolate chips are the 2nd listed ingredient).  Outside of the whole grain oats, there's very little of that cardboard feel sometimes found in other health bars.  Eating one is basically like eating a good chocolate chip type of cookie.  Of course, these aren't really health bars (and Fiber One knows it since they're officially called "Chewy Bars") since the only thing "healthy" about them is the fiber from the chicory root and the whole grain oats.  But given their low calorie count, low Weight Watcher point count, high fiber content, good taste, and overall satisfying feeling, I can live with that.  The level of gas production also makes them self-limiting when it comes to eating more &lt;g>.  So, I'm happy to rate these at a Very Good 4 stars out of 5.<br /><br />And, just for completeness, according to the Fiber One web site the ingredients are:<br /><br />Chicory Root Extract, Semisweet Chocolate Chips, Whole Grain Oats, High Maltose Corn Syrup, Rice Flour, Barley Flakes, Sugar, Canola Oil, Glycerin, Maltodextrin, Honey, Tricalcium Phosphate, Palm Kernel Oil, Soy Lecithin, Salt, Nonfat Milk, Fructose, Malt Extract, Cocoa Processed with Alkali, Baking Soda, Caramel Color, Natural Flavor.  Mixed Tocopherols Added to Retain Freshness.<br /><br />From a Weight Watcher's point of view, each bar has 140 calories, 4 grams of fat, and 9 grams of fiber.  Plugging that into their old formula gives 2 points per bar.<br /><br />Ooh.  You'll have to excuse me now.  I ate one of these a bit earlier and now I have to go....
