Some flavors
Stick with the chocolate Lava. Have not tried all of the flavors, but the ginger snap alone is worth the loss of at LEAST 2 stars, and I am being magnanimous here. The Sunflower Butter is oily as is the chocolate lava, though unlike the chocolate lava, it is almost flavorless, and the cinnamon raisin roll is OK.<br /><br />Conversely, the recipe for the Ginger Snap should be burned, it's ashes mixed into cement, and the resulting block shot into space...<br /><br />I sincerely hope the person who formulated that flavor reads this, because I have quite a bit to tell them. First off, what, exactly, WERE YOU THINKING? Calling this flavor hideous and unpalatable is an insult to all hideous and unpalatable foods everywhere. If this flavor were a sentient being, you would euthanize it to put it out of its misery. Were it served in prisons, it would be considered cruel and unusual punishment, and all inmates who (forcibly, no doubt) consumed it would be immediately released for time served. I am guessing that the ONLY reason this flavor is produced is that someone in the supply chain of this company lost a substantial bet...<br /><br />It tastes like clove oil, and actually has a numbing effect on your mouth. I read the ingredient list expecting to find it there, and was shocked that not only clove oil, but both &#34;pure, unadulterated malevolence&#34; and &#34;malicious intent to do bodily harm&#34; were also suspiciously missing from the ingredient list. Cinnamon oil is present though, so perhaps it has some of the same properties.<br /><br />All exaggeration aside, the Quest bars are far superior, and nutritionally equal if you are not vegan, though I will still buy the chocolate lava, even though they are a bit oily (you really could cut the fat content down a bit on those).
