That's funny.

Check the expiry dates on the bars.

Dollar stores always have name brand chocolate bars for 88 cents. Even No Frills groceries has bars for a buck.

Eatmore is my go to bar for in my hunting/hiking/fishing pack. More filling than a granola bar and more energy than a power bar, they don't get crushed in your pack. Power to weight ratio they are a great pack food.

Nothing wrong with having one for breakfast either Ken.

Interesting! They look good and the calorie to weight ratio is actually higher than an eatmore (for their Everest endurance bar anyhow).

Might have to get a case of these to try out.

I always keep a couple in my pack, good emergency food, along with some no refrigeration pepperoni.

Those are my weakness.
I could never say no to an eatmore.
I think I fell in love with them as a teenager because of this commercial.

Ken started it...

I also realized today that my stock has evaporated, so I feel the pain too.
I haven't gone into desperation mode as I haven't started going through the old hunting packs...yet.

I also enjoy an Eatmore once in a while. The only part I hate is when they are so fresh you gotta spend 5 minutes peeling the paper off when it sticks to the bar. When all you wanna do is Eatmore!!

You have to stick them in the freezer for 10mins or the fight is on.

This is funny. Us men can be wrapped up hard in an important topic then someone says "Eatmore" and we are like a dog when someone yells squirrel. Now I got to have a bar for breakfast I can't get my mind off of it.

Not very long ago I drove to Edmonton, was a sharp cold day and I had the heater on, got to the outskirts and remembered there was a wunderbar in my pocket.

You ever drink a wunderbar? They are great too!! lol

If you're going to be thrown under a bus you want it to be an ETS electric bus, cause they don't move.
