Kashi Go Lean - MALT

my first reaction to Kashi Go Lean high protein & fiber bar in a malted choc crisp flavor was, there is a god. i mean, after all, malt. But it’s rather a chore to eat. Maybe this is a regular deal w/ these hardcore protein/fiber bars... but this mofo has 49 frickin carbs (and I am not one of those carb-counter people). also 13gs protein & 270mgs potassium - possibly good 4 U but holy davy jones’ locker, this 290-cal sinker knocks you out while simultaneously jacking you up w/ bogus alternative sugars (evap cane juice, honey, brown rice syrup, barley malted syrup, pear juice concentrate). plus the malt flavor wasn’t very strong. I guess it’s meant as a meal replcemt? in any case: back to my old agnostic ways

I ALWAYS ASSUMED CATS WITH MALT ON THEIR BREATH WERE CONNOISSEURS OF SCOTCH. I ERRED IN GIVING THEM TOO MUCH CREDIT FOR THEIR GOOD TASTE.

Great links... as opposed to 'twisted.'

But tell Davy Jones to get with the program... Talk Like A Pirate Day was this past Tuesday.

Arrrgghhhh, matey!

I think a "Kashi Go Lean" - LITE is in order.... Although, sounds like it would go good with some French Vanilla Ice Milk.

BK: I hope you weren't parading around SFO dressed like a pirate in anticipation of Talk Like a Pirate Day. If you were, it's no wonder people were photographing you on your Segway.

TG: Based on the number of carb grams, it out to be billed as a two-meal replacement. That's about twice what the ADA recommends per meal.

Ay yes, Kirk, my mate BK made a fine pirate, coverin' more territory on his good ship Segway than I covered raiding and plundering ships for 11 long years!

T.G., have you ever thought about starting another blog on a different topic? I have some suggestions for you, if you're facing a shortage of ideas.

How about a blog about people who have "ideas for different topics" for bloggers?

Maybe you could call it, say, "I am a busybody who is too lazy to start a blog on my own"?

Hey I got it: How about a blog where you just have comments? That would save T.G. a lot of trouble and she could devote all her time to explaining the drinks they serve at Starbucks.

It's Rum & Coke Friday!

Ciao!
